New Unthemed Furniture and Carpeting Installed in Boulder Ridge Common Areas at Disney’s Wilderness Lodge

Chairs and carpeting have been replaced in the public areas of the Boulder Ridge Villas building of Disney’s Wilderness Lodge, but the new replacement furniture is void of theming. The rooms of Boulder Ridge were recently refurbished, too.

Boulder Ridge Lobby

In the lobby, the couch and chairs have fresh new cushions and throw pillows.

The couch and armchair seats are now light brown leather, while the back cushions and throw pillows have a red, white, and brown Southwestern pattern.

Previously, the couch and armchairs had all red cushions.

The rocking chairs now have brown leather seats and backs. They previously featured darker seats and Southwestern patterned backs.

Iron Spike Room

In the Iron Spike Room, there are two new sets of chairs. This “train room” includes model trains and other decorations inspired by Walt’s love of rail transportation.

In this corner, the chairs have received new red pleather seats and red tree-patterned back cushions.

At the center of the room, in front of the faux fireplace, the brown leather armchairs have been replaced with these heather gray rocking armchairs — which don’t quite match the theme of the room.

It looks like the rugs have been cleaned, too, as the colors are popping more than they once did.

The carpeting is mostly green with red, black, and white patterns.
