We drove by cabins for sale somewhere between Melbourne and Ormond Beach, Florida. Later, while fueling up, I opened Facebook Marketplace to see if there was something intriguing nearby. We were in no hurry. I immediately recognized the same cabins I saw. Same gravel lot, same log cabins sitting on the same blocks with the same trees. The listing didn’t say much, but when I searched a little bit I found six more listings, many using the exact same photos.
There are quite a few listings of Disney Fort Wilderness Log Cabins for sale on Facebook Marketplace.
