Fort Wilderness – Disney World’s friendly RV Resort!
We are off to “Disney World” for Vacation! Hooray! I hope we won’t have any mistakes in all the pre-planning that we named “Enjoying the Anticipation”! After arriving at Disney’s Fort Wilderness, We pulled into the “Toll Booth” style Entrance and were pleasantly surprised when they had all our reservations, RV site number, and Special requests waiting for us in a Disney Packet. The check in process took less the 5 minutes while they gave us our personalized ID cards, Disney Park Tickets, maps, and Dinner reservation confirmations. Our site was amazingly roomy and had easy access. Each site gives you a feeling of privacy with all the moss draped trees and we even had the native wildlife (Deer and Owls) visit us regularly.
Fort Wilderness has a 3 route internal bus system which picks you up near your campsite and takes you to any of the Fort Wilderness Outposts where there are restaurants, supply stores, pools, and connections to the Boats or Buses to all of the Disney Parks and Downtown Disney. We never had to move our RV during the whole weeks stay!
We travel with our 10 year old Maltese and pre-planned a daily stay for her at “Best Friends” Doggie Daycare. We were able to make these arrangements on their website and with the Fort Wilderness Concierge’s desk to have us picked up each morning, transported to Best Friends (about 2 miles away) and returned to Fort Wilderness to board the Transportation System Buses. Each night, we would return to Fort Wilderness and the Concierge service would take us back to pick up our pet and return us to our campsite! What a great service they provide and a wonderful way for our pet to enjoy her vacation and not be left inside our RV for the Day.
Camping in Fort Wilderness during the Holiday Season is also a special Treat. Many of the RVers decorate their sites for everyone’s enjoyment. Our vacation time came during Halloween week and we were amazed at the creative ideas and lighted inflatables that many campsites displayed.
If you are planning your vacation to Disney World, make sure Fort Wilderness is your RV Resort of Choice!
