The hotel

At Disney's Fort Wilderness Resort, it's time for the outdoor life, Disney style! Both parents and children alike will love staying in the very comfortable rustic-style cabins, surrounded by serene forest. Reminiscent of log dwellings from the pioneer days, special touches include vaulted ceilings, exposed beams and a private deck. Fishing, swimming, horseback riding, wagon rides, boating and cycling are just some of the exciting activities on offer. At night, gather round the campfire for a rousing sing-along, followed by a classic Disney film under the stars.

A wonderful campground, steeped in Disney history and tradition. Bath houses are clean. Sometimes the hot water is a bit iffy. I experienced a couple of cold showers.

A wonderful campground, steeped in Disney history and tradition. Bath houses are clean. Sometimes the hot water is a bit iffy. I experienced a couple of cold showers. Fun activities like swimming, fishing, lounging in a hot tub, visiting Disney horses, trail rides and a campfire at night. Some nights there is a sing along program with Chip and Dale. If you love camping and you love Disney, you should definitely stay here. Just don't come in September, because the rain and thunderstorms are awful. Read less

This is a great, affordable, fun place to stay on Disney property! You can bring your motor home, pitch a tent, or rent a cabin. We brought our 40’ foot RV and stayed in the Premium Meadows lot #900, which was right across the street from the pool, store, bike barn and all the activities.

This is a great, affordable, fun place to stay on Disney property! You can bring your motor home, pitch a tent, or rent a cabin. We brought our 40’ foot RV and stayed in the Premium Meadows lot #900, which was right across the street from the pool, store, bike barn and all the activities. You definitely need to rent a golf cart (about$70/day)or bring your bikes (they also have bike rentals on the property for $20/day). We are a family of 5 and my kids were never bored! We loved riding bikes throughout the property and saw plenty of deer, turkeys, and bunnies out in the mornings. The buses are constantly running thru the loops but I hear it’s still a 20 minute wait depending on where you’re going. We did not visit any of the parks on this trip as we found plenty of activities on the property to entertain us. The only negative complaint I have is the Trails End restaurant is quite limited on the food. It’s quick service but I would like to have seen a more expansive menu as sometimes you’re tired of cooking out on the grill and just want a normal restaurant at the resort to go and eat at without leaving the property. They do have a small bar on the property with great drinks but that doesn’t open until 3pm daily. Overall I love this place and can’t wait to return! Oh yeah, the pool doesn’t provide towels, so don’t forget to bring your own. Read less

Whats there to say its Disney campground was great. Sites are nice and private but its definetly a tight squeeze getting in. Bathhouses were nice and the pool was great. Staff was always helpful and the bus service was great. We did the Hoopde do review is was ok i personally would not do it again and save $200.

Love, love, love Fort Wilderness. This is our 5th stay and there will be more. You can’t beat the atmosphere…so much to do. So much to see. Enjoy the availability of the golf carts. Just all around a nice place. Look forward to returning one day soon.
