My family of 4 stayed in a $900-a-night villa at Disney's Wilderness Lodge. The resort was dreamy, but I'm not sure the hefty price was worth it.

My family of four stayed at Disney's Wilderness Lodge using our Disney Vacation Club points.
It's in a prime location, close to Magic Kingdom, and I love that it feels like a mountain lodge.

The bathroom setup also affects the light in the bedroom.

Some of the bedroom features were hard to use as well.

We had two small balconies — one off the living room and another off the bedroom.

We liked Wilderness Lodge overall, but we wouldn't stay there without our DVC points.
