Ohana Lodge - Waterfront Retired Disney Fort Wilderness Cabin in North Port, FL

Welcome to Ohana Lodge, a unique and family-friendly retreat in sunny North Port, Florida. This thoughtfully restored, retired Fort Wilderness cabin is full of charm, character, and special touches that reflect our family’s love for connection, nature, and just a little Disney-inspired magic. Nestled along the peaceful Newcastle Waterway, the lodge offers the perfect mix of rustic comfort and Florida sunshine. This isn’t your typical vacation rental—it’s a true labor of love. Whether you’re planning a quiet family getaway, a surprise birthday trip, or a weekend with friends, Ohana Lodge is a warm and welcoming space designed to help you slow down, reconnect, and make lasting memories. Originally part of the Fort Wilderness Resort in Central Florida, the cabin’s wood-paneled walls, open layout, and cozy atmosphere bring back that sense of nostalgia, while thoughtful upgrades add modern comfort. Inside, you’ll find two comfortable bedrooms plus a pullout sofa to sleep up to six, a full bathroom with tub and shower, and a fully stocked kitchen with full-size appliances, a Keurig and drip coffee maker, and all the cooking essentials you might need. The open living and dining area is perfect for game nights, puzzles, and evening movie marathons, and the unit includes a washer and dryer, high-speed Wi-Fi, a smart TV, and central air with ceiling fans. But what makes this cabin truly special are the meaningful, memory-making touches you won’t find anywhere else. Guests love our interactive Disney pin-trading board, the “Hiya Pal, Where Ya From?” map where you can pin your hometown, and the curated collection of Disney popcorn buckets that line the shelves. We’ve stocked bookshelves with Disney classics and family favorites, added games like Uno and Sorry, and included photo-worthy nooks throughout the home to help you capture special moments. This is a place built for stories and laughter. Step outside and you’ll find your own peaceful haven on the canal. The backyard features a fire pit with cozy seating, Adirondack chairs for morning coffee, and a great view of the water. Our kids love fishing for tilapia and bass right from the backyard, and you might spot herons, turtles, or even an otter passing through. The canal is also perfect for launching a kayak or paddleboard if you bring one along. Ohana Lodge is located in a quiet, family-friendly neighborhood close to everything Southwest Florida has to offer. Within 30 to 45 minutes, you can explore some of the most beautiful beaches in the country. Siesta Key Beach, with its powdery white sand and turquoise water, is just 35 minutes away. Boca Grande offers old Florida charm and stunning shoreline about 40 minutes away. Englewood Beach is a local favorite for shelling and sunsets, while Venice offers boutique shopping, restaurants, and a charming pier. If you’re craving a laid-back waterfront town, Punta Gorda and Fishermen’s Village are only 25 minutes away. Warm Mineral Springs is just 10 minutes from the cabin and is one of the only natural mineral springs in Florida. Wellen Park, a vibrant new area with restaurants, walking trails, and events at CoolToday Park, is just 20 minutes away. You can even spend the day hiking or taking an airboat tour at Myakka River State Park about 45 minutes out. Grocery stores, restaurants, and coffee shops are just a short drive away, and if you're adding this to a longer Florida adventure, the Disney parks in Orlando are only two hours from here. We’re the Harris family—a mom, dad, and three all-boy boys—and we are passionate about creating spaces that help other families feel at home. We love fishing in the backyard, playing board games at night, and starting our mornings with coffee on the porch while the sun rises. As Superhosts on other platforms, we take great pride in providing a peaceful, easy, and welcoming experience for every guest who stays here. We live nearby and are happy to help with any recommendations or questions you might have during your stay. Ohana means family, and we’ve poured our hearts into making this cabin a place where everyone feels like they belong. We hope you’ll find peace, fun, and a little magic here—just as we do. Come stay, unwind, and start your next Florida adventure at Ohana Lodge.
