About Wilderness on Pierce

Welcome to Wilderness on Pierce — a completely renovated 1950s Florida fish camp reimagined for today’s visitors.

Tucked beneath towering cypress trees along the shores of Lake Pierce, our property carries the soul of old Florida; early mornings on the dock, stories shared at sunset, and the simple joy of life on the water. What was once a beloved mid-century fishing retreat has been thoughtfully restored and brought back to life.

Where Florida History Meets Lakeside Living

At the heart of Wilderness on Pierce are 20 retired Disney cabins, originally from Disney’s Fort Wilderness Resort & Campground. These iconic cabins have been carefully relocated with views of the water, blending their nostalgic charm with. 

Wilderness on Pierce is proudly family-owned and operated. For us, this isn’t just a property it’s a home away from home. We built Wilderness on Pierce the way we’d want to experience it ourselves somewhere you can unplug, slow down, and feel at home the moment you arrive. We believe in preserving history, honoring Florida’s fish-camp roots, and creating a place where families, couples, anglers, and weekend wanderers can slow down and reconnect.

We believe in preserving Florida’s fish camp roots while creating something special for the next generation of families, anglers, couples, and weekend wanderers. Whether you’re casting a line at sunrise, enjoying a drink at the bar, or simply sitting quietly by the water, this is a place that invites you to slow down and remember what matters.

Wilderness on Pierce will continue to grow. Soon, we’ll be adding a pool, bocce ball courts, fire pits, grills, and party pavilions to create even more spaces for gathering and celebrating. We also plan to renovate the main dock to allow for boat tie-ups and to create an even better spot to sit back and watch the sun set over Lake Pierce, which, in our opinion, is one of the best views in Florida.

Come experience the charm of a 1950s fish camp — reimagined, restored, and ready to welcome you home.
