Outstanding park as far as amenities go. Everything you could ask for. Swimming, fishing, boating, transportation to the parks, shopping, dining, biking, and more. It is beautiful and immaculately kept. The site sizes are TINY! We stayed in one of their Premium sites - the largest they offer. The first site we were assigned was on the end and required us to position ourselves across the main road and then back in at an extreme right angle. No way. They graciously reassigned us to a site that was easier to maneuver into, but STILL ridiculously tight - of course, designed in an era when RVs were not monsters like they are today. Their service was incredible, as my husband had an accident while on property (our fault) and ended up in the hospital for FIVE days! The Disney folks watched over our RV, offered to bring us food, send transportation for us, and helped us with our accommodations and park tickets since we were unable to use them all and ended up having to stay additional days. So, while prices are, indeed, high at Disney - the customer service is outstanding! Would we stay again? Not sure in light of the high prices - but sure glad we did it once! We camped at Disney's Fort Wilderness Resort & Campground in a Fifth Wheel.

Beautiful campground with spacious campsites. It was fun to see other campers decorating their sites with Disney themes. We stayed in the 1100 loop. This is a good location as it is centrally located and there is a shuttle stop right there. You can also walk to the nightly campfire, Chip and Dale sing-a-long and movie. We camped at Disney's Fort Wilderness Resort & Campground in a Motorhome.

We spent three nights at this very wooded campground. Each campsite is separated by dense foliage giving each site privacy. There was a comfort station in each "loop" that we very conveniently located. The restrooms were very clean. I stuck my head into the showers to inspect also! Also clean. The 'Mickey' wristband prevents outsiders from entry to the comfort station. Ice is available at each comfort station via a credit card actuated machine. Ample small cooler full for $2.00 The campground is very large. We recommend a golf cart to get around. We rented a golf cart to travel between our site and the bus station/boat launch, restaurants and camp stores (we saw two). Plenty of paved roadway for my bicycle rides. We camped at Disney's Fort Wilderness Resort & Campground in a Motorhome.

For those whom do not have a tow vehicle - There is an awesome restaurant (Trails End Restaurant) with buffet including a full bar (Crockett's Tavern) at the boat launch area. This allowed us to stay in the campground for our entire stay. There are two (2) camp stores (trading posts) in the campground and we were able to grab souvenirs and English muffins without leaving the park. The Disney parks are easily accessible by boat or bus so no need to drive your vehicle to the parks.

Ft Wilderness sets the bar high and frankly is the "best ever" for any type of RV Park type camping. Everything clean always. You will always feel safe and secure and in a family setting. The only thing negative you will ever see is an occasional "knuckle head" doing something stupid on a golf cart. The Disney Rangers will stop it quickly. Power and plumbing is always perfect. Cleanliness is always at a high level. In my opinion, a golf cart is a necessity at Ft Wildernesss. The 700 plus acres cannot be fully appreciated without transportation inside the grounds. Step up and rent a cart for the full Disney effect. The only "down side" to your visit will be when you receive you credit card statement. A little pricey but Disney products are famous for that. If you go during peak holidays like Halloween or Christmas, expect spots to be scarce and you will need to book early. We camped at Disney's Fort Wilderness Resort & Campground in a Travel Trailer.

Wow. The site was really, really hard to back into, had to ask the neighbor across the way to move his truck or it was not going to fit. But a great way to meet a great neighbor! The lot was super clean on arrival, they have their own hoses in place for staff to blow off and rinse off the pads after each use. When you arrive its spotless. The lot was a bit small, I mean the area to move around and enjoy, but the space between each unit was overwhelming. Real rustic feel. Not crazy about the swamp pond behind us but some people might like it. Allergy suffers ask for one without. Facilities were amazing, from the bus stops to the bike paths to the pools. First class. Fireworks were absolutely amazing, each nite! Shop around and get a better price, we were on demand shopping so paid a bit more! Careful with the Disney bands, you can spend a fortune, we did :) We camped at Disney's Fort Wilderness Resort & Campground in a Fifth Wheel.

Had one of the best premium sites in the 700 loop. Little did we know that the "over the top" Christmas display on site # 703 at the beginning of the loop would attract a LOT of golf carts, cars, horse carriages. On one Saturday night we counted over 30 golf carts stopped in the road, stopped in our site and other sites across from the "attraction". I actually got out my emergency triangles and placed at the edge of my site next to the road to keep people from parking on my lot. This was a X-Mas display by people that have camped here for several years. It was a display where you could go in a castle, sit on a sofa and take pictures also had a carriage that you could sit in for photos. I commend the RV'ers that constructed all this but it made their neighbors miserable at night. All this traffic, noise, kids and adults yelling until 11:00 PM. We were able to move after 3 nights to the 600 loop. Way too many golf carts running around plus they allow gas powered carts which is an additional noise problem. This is our first stay at Ft. Wilderness and WILL be the last. If you want to stay at a quite campground, Ft. Wilderness is not your place. Been there done that but not for us. Never again. We camped at Disney's Fort Wilderness Resort & Campground in a Motorhome.

So, I am not a real Disney fan, but my grandaughters are. We tried FW a year ago by renting a cabin for the night. I loved it. We had a pool all to ourselves and the Disney stress just melted away. This year I dragged the TT to FW for a week in the campgrounds. This has to be the most perfect campground in the country. There was never a stick out of place, a loud neighbor or a messy bathroom. Trash receptacles in our loop (900) were between sites and it seemed that every time I used it, it was empty, yet I never saw anyone empty it. We needed an early check-in to pick up one of the girls at the airport. They could not have been more accomodating. Still not a real Disney fan, but I'd pay $100 to stay here even if it wasn't connected to Disney. While I heard that sites were small and challenging to settle into, we didn't find that to be the case. With the curves in the loops, you couldn't see more than 2-3 trailers at a time. Site was a bit of a challenge on its angle, but I haven't been towing/ backing up for too long, so that's probably on me. We camped at Disney's Fort Wilderness Resort & Campground in a Travel Trailer.

What else is there to say it is Disney. You are not going to be able to stay on a Disney resort for a better price. The pools are amazing and the food is better. Do yourself a favor and rent a golf cart the best thing to do in spare time is loop all the sites to check out the campground. Easy to drive cart to diner, bus or boat to any Disney park. I have stayed in 1100 loop and 1200 loop which are premium sites and loved them both. Make sure you check out all the campground has to offer. We always save 2 days just for time at the campground and no parks. We camped at Disney's Fort Wilderness Resort & Campground in a Travel Trailer.

Was in the area for a conference. This is expensive for a campground, but in the context of the location, it was a very good value. It had fantastic amenities, but due to work commitments, we didn't have much chance to take advantage of them. No open fire. Propane or covered pits OK. Used Lyft to get me to the Hilton where the workshop was and that worked quite well. We camped at Disney's Fort Wilderness Resort & Campground in a Fifth Wheel.

Spent 4 nights at Fort Wilderness Campsites. We were in the Premium area - site 504. Campground was full over the weekend, but maybe 2/3 full during the week. Transportation was easy within the Campground and to the Theme Parks. We had good OTA reception and cable was also provided. Cell phones worked fine and there was also WIFI in the Campground. It rained a bunch when we were there, so we did not get out much - but it was fun each evening to walk down to the boat launch and watch the fireworks over the Magic Kingdom. All personnel were super friendly and helpful. We camped at Disney's Fort Wilderness Resort & Campground in a Motorhome.

This is hands down one of my top 3 RV parks ever. It camping Disney style. My only complaint is that the table we had in the patio area has seen better days, its time to replace it and as others have noted its expensive. We will definitely be back.

Stayed in a premium site in the 1300 loop. As all have stated, it is a little tight for big rigs. We have 38' 5th wheel with crew cab pick-up and managed to back in without much problem. The site itself was flat, clean and as nice as expected at Disney. The Disney transportation throughout the campground and to the parks was excellent and convenient. Although it is a little expensive for camping, it seems worth it for being inside Disney property and getting the advantages that come with it.

The park was clean and the service was good. Restrooms were clean and maintained, except near the marina. The only downside was that the park has no dump station, so we had to find a fuel stop on the way home to dump our tanks. For the price paid I would expect them to be available. Make sure to get a full service site when you check in or you'll leave with full tanks. We camped at Disney's Fort Wilderness Resort & Campground in a Travel Trailer.

Disney's camping property has a great restaurant in the camp grounds (Trails End ). If you are looking for a "Watering Hole". (Crockett's Tavern) is a great place for adult beverages and hot snacks. Snacks are also available at the main pool and a food truck with great sandwiches near the campfire party every evening. The food truck is a new favorite. For a dinner show, you can reserve at the Hoop-dee-doo revue. Disney choices abound only a short free ride away.

Bring bikes, the buses are great but take forever to show up. The pool at Wilderness lodge is a quick boat ride away and it's a much nicer pool with bar area so we hung out over there instead of the fort wilderness pool. Watch the fireworks from Magic Kingdom from the dock!

If you have an RV of any size, go for a Premium site reservation. Full hookup & "Preferred" can be rather difficult to squeeze into.

Don't miss the campfire sing along with movies, but bring your own s'mores equipment!

Lots on site for small kids. For bigger kids and adults, expect to pay a lot to be entertained. Disney is not great at service--they have just learned that when you pay through the nose, you'll be willing to stand on line for a while or wait on hold forever. If you need to make reservations etc. try to do it in person; phone calls were aggravating.

After checking in at drive thru spots, there was an area to pull thru and disconnect/reconnect towed vehicles. When checking out, we went to park motorhome in overflow lot to do one last character dining meal and found the parking lot to be quite full of small trailers taking up large pull thru spots, a couple people parked on the sides of the parking lot making it a tight squeeze to maneuver, we spent a bit longer than we anticipated idling and circling for a space.

It's Disney World. If your board, its your fault. Never saw anyone until sun down. Apparently everyone is at Disney, or the pools, during the day. We went to the Hoop-de-doo review the first night.

Great way to go to Disney, spacious sites with trees in between, nice bike paths and pools, a little pricey for an RV park but cheap compared to other Disney resorts

Trail End is quite pricey for type of food. Otherwise the cart rental, horseback riding, and pony rides were reasonable.

Get to the beach to see the regularly scheduled Magic Kingdom fireworks! They even play the music at the dock so guests receive the full experience.

It's Disney, have fun! Boats take you to the Magic Kingdom, buses for all other destinations.

Publix grocery store about 13 minutes away. Take boat to Magic Kingdom. Drive car to all other parks, parking free. MK will close whenever full, so always visit first in morning. The premium sites are not much better than standard sites, we might try standard next time.

You can rent a golf cart or bike and drive up to the little beach on property. They have quick service food and a souvenir shop up there as well. At night, watch magic kingdom fireworks from that beach and also the electric water pageant. (All free to watch!)

Renting a golf cart is popular there but expensive. They are awesome to have if you don't have your own. But if you stay at the parks all day, it may not be worth it.

We got in early on a busy week.

The restaurants at the Fort don't have the selection and appeal of other Disney properties. Take the boat to Wilderness Lodge for a great lunch at Roaring Fork or to The Contemporary for Contempo Cafe. Both are great choices. While at the Fort, take a carriage or wagon ride and roast a marshmallow at the campfire with Chip and Dale.

Too much to do here. We camped from Thursday to Thursday, weather was very hot with a couple of days of thunder storms. Use ground transportation around the campground and use your own vehicle to explore some of the other parks.

Make sure to ask if site is easy back-in if your rig is big. 700 loop is convenient to boat launch, restaurant.

Recommend you rent a golf cart and bring your own wireless router.

Everything Disney

Disney transports to all the parks - by boat to Magic Kingdom and bus to others. Truly magical place!

If you have not been to Disney before take time to review all the activities well ahead of time to plan out your stay and find out where each activity is located within a given area. Get the Disney World app and set up a fastpass for each days activity. Be sure to pick up a map at each area. Disney World is expensive and they do things right. Try to visit during off times as things can get very crowded during sometimes of the year.

Trails End restaurant was enjoyed by all; kids, parents and grandparents.

If you have children take the boat to Magic Kingdom. Rent a golf cart to get around plus its fun.

For some free fun, take the boat over to the Contemporary, and take the Monorail to visit the high end hotels. From Magic Kingdom, you can take a bus to Boardwalk hotel and walk the boardwalk or rent a surrey bike. One of our favorite things to do it go to Downtown Disney, now called Disney Springs. Lots to do and see. ENJOY!!

Don't be afraid to drive to some of the parks. Your resort pass gets you in for free. Animal Kingdom is the farthest park and you will get there quicker by driving. The directional signs on property are very well placed to find your way around.

Laundry takes credit cards and can be monitored by your smart phone. $3 for washer and $3 for dryer, newer machines. Interior bus transportation provided and was dependable Golf Cart rates were $65 a day Pony rides for kids under 48" $8

Ride your bike to the Wilderness Lodge for use of their pool and amenities if you're looking for more adventure... you're free to do so. The bike ride is about 15 minutes. One could spend days within the campground and over at the Wilderness Lodge and be fully entertained.
Jim and Ben • November 2015 -
Disney World and all the other hotel restaurants!!

Other than the theme parks, Fort Wilderness offers its own activities such as fishing, hiking (some nice trails), horseback riding, archery, campfires at night along with an outdoor movie, two nice swimming pools, and more. The trail between Fort Wilderness and Wilderness Lodge is a very nice walk. In addition, at night the Magic Kingdom fireworks and Electrical Water Pageant can be viewed from the beach.

Take time to explore the campground.

If you have a golf cart, bring it. It is an extremely large park and it will help you get around in the park. They do rent golf carts, ($65 a day) or you can contact one of the many rental companies around Orlando and arrange to pick one up from them at around half the cost. (They cannot deliver them to FWC due to restrictions)

Disney World really wants you to spend all your money on site. The show and dinner combination at Hoopeedo is $80 per adult. The only good value is lunch at a theme park. It is necessary to figure out the fast pass to avoid waiting in line for an hour at most newer venues. Everything is clean and everyone is friendly, but some more education is needed to enjoy the experience to the fullest.
Yeager • May 2015 -
Many extra opportunities at The Fort for entertainment. be sure to leave some days to explore.
BamaGradx2 • May 2015 -
Downtown Disney - Use the Disney Transportation due to construction at the location. Trying to self park will take an additional hour.
Borsky Family • May 2015 -
Publix grocery stores 15 minutes away. You can use magic bands to open gate, even though lady might say you have to use card.
