ORLANDO, Fla. – Would you want to own a piece of Disney World property?
News 6 spotted an ad on Facebook Marketplace advertising the sale of “Tiny House Resort Cabins”.
Look familiar? It’s actually the cabins once housed at Disney’s Fort Wilderness Resort and Campground for about 25 years.
Dream Life Mobile Homes is selling the cabins. A representative said the company acquired the units from J&J Venture Group, the company that cleared out the old cabins to make room for new ones on Disney’s Fort Wilderness Resort and Campground.
After reaching out to the ad, News 6 was invited to take a look inside. The cabins are legit, some still have Disney Fort Wilderness instructional signage. (They’re taken out before they’re sold.)
The cabins are about 500 square feet with one bedroom and one bathroom. They come fully furnished with a pullout couch, TVs, beds, and appliances.
You’ll just need to install the foundation and connect the central air conditioning, electrical, and water.
The representative for the company selling the cabins wasn’t clear on how many they have but claimed they have multiple units for sale. Not sure what you would do with them?
According to the Facebook Marketplace ad, the units are a “great investment property option for Airbnb, VRBO, tiny home resort, rental and many other possibilities.”
You won’t find any Disney photos or paintings that are usually hanging on the walls, but the original Fort Wilderness moose lights are still intact.
You may even snag some Joffrey’s coffee packets left inside the cabinets of some units along with some dishes.
The cost? Nearly $50,000.
The company claims it will deliver the cabins within 25 miles of Orlando, or find another option.
According to Disney Vacation Club, 350 of the old cabins are being replaced by new modern-looking cabins with more energy-efficient features. Renovations are also underway for the resort pool, walking trails, and some dining areas at Fort Wilderness.
If you’re interested in one of the cabins, you can contact Michael Westin at 407-349-3497.
As for the new Disney Vacation Club cabins at Fort Wilderness, according to the Disney World website, they’re be available to book for stays starting Sept. 27.
