Has anyone looked on Google Earth lately?
To the immediate South East of Disney's Caribbean Resort, there appears to be a man-made lake surrounded by hotel buildings, but it looks unfinished, ie lots of construction site stuff, but there are also some completed looking buildings, and lots of cars parked around them.
I cant find it on any Disney maps! I might just be being ignorant, but is this a new hotel? If not, can anyone tell me what it is? I cant work it out!

Looks like Bonnet Creek or it could be the new 4 seasons resort, but I thought that was on the other side of property

That is Bonnet Creek Resort, they are building a hotel/condo (around the lake) and residences. Very expensive!

The new 4 Seasons is over closer to Ft. Wilderness where the Osprey Ridge and Eagle Pines Golf Courses used to be.

Is that the new construction near the Contemporary? I saw some construction while on the monorail, but wasn't sure what it was.

Eagle Pines and Osprey Ridge, both of which belonged to Disney sat over near Ft. Wildnerness. One of them has closed already, Eagle Pines, I believe. The other will also close. The 4 Seasons Resort which is going to be built there will also build 2 golf courses however. Hopefully these will become a part of the overall "Disney Golf Package" since eliminating both of them would leave only the Lake Buena Vista course during the annualy Children's Miracle Network Tournament held annually at the Magnolia and Palm Courses.

There's one under construction by said hotel everyones been talking about, easy to make out.
Are they closing the whole Eagle Pines/Oak Trail complex? Where will they let kids play? My son LOVED Oak Trails....
