Where’s Bambi then? All I see is some geometrical pattern on the wall!

Indeed! The art on the wall also seems to reference Bambi, as do the quail decorative pillows.Zoom in on the headboard walls
Looks much better and more in line with the rooms at New York and Disneyland
Newport Bay Club needs a similar upgrade

OK I can see one tiny Bambi. I don’t see any other artwork in that picture though.
I do have to ask what are quail decorative pillows? And what does that have to do with Bambi?
In any case to me this is a nod at best. I prefer the current decor n terms of the theme. Not the carpets etc, that needs to go. And they desperately need an upgrade. But theme-wise these rooms are disappointing IMO.
Adventure Isle getting new PotC treasure hunt too
They coincidently just closed off some of the caves for work

I hope the caves aren’t being changed to PotC. I love how they fit into the Treehouse story.
I’ll be honest. I’m more nervous about the corridors.

Do we know what that would have looked like? I have heard a few references to that alternative, but can't find any concept art or descriptions of how National Geographic would have been integrated into the decor.
I think the idea is you see Bambi and Bambi's father on the opposing bedheads, somewhat recreating the moment where he sees "The Great Prince of the Forest" in the film as a child. Very dramatic!
EDIT: Here you go!
Maybe I am imagining things, but I thought the pillows were a reference to the quails in the movie. Wasn't one always trailing behind?
There is also a painting of a deer on the wall, which I assume is a stand-in for Bambi-related artwork.
I much prefer these subtler nods to the films than the Moana and Incredibles-style rooms over at WDW.

Aren't the caves already pirate themed? I didn't realise they were linked to the Treehouse?
Other than the test corridor which was seen I don't think we saw more than that, maybe some photos of a half complete room through a half open door? I do have a feeling the rooms would have looked more contemporary than what we have seen today.
What interested me more was the artwork that I believe was going to focus on national parks/American geographical wonders. I felt like DLP would have done something good ala The Art of
It seems 1 year+ ago it was not approved (around the time there was rumours of Iger selling of Nat Geo) and then it felt like the Ranch cabins were moved up in the refurbishment schedule.
They also showed a look at one of the refurbed cabins at Davy Crocket Ranch
Too bad there's no bus to the parks from there

The Adventure Isle “proper” caves are. The set under the tree and linked to the… tree.

Ah, Ok I concede those points! I forgot about the quails in the movie. Maybe I should watch it again.
