This was our home away from home for many years when we had Annual passes. The campground is perfect. Every site is pristine condition and has full hookups. You will pay high dollars to come here though. So many amenities it would be hard to list them all. Restrooms with showers in every loop. Laundry facilities, Multiple pools with slides. restaurants, lake, beach, outdoor movie theater with chip n dale. Arts and crafts time. convenience stores with souvenirs, golf cart and bike rentals. Bus transportation, ferry boat transportation and it goes on and on......

Ran across some more pics from Fort Wilderness today in my drop box. Man do I miss camping here! The boys were all so little and trips with mom and dad were actually fun. I would love to camp here again but I am thinking I may have to wait until they have kids of their own. Don't miss out on this campground while your kids are still little!

Going to See Mickey-

This Campground is more like a KOA sort of Campground there is not much nature put into it and you could tell that it is very well kept by the groundskeeper people it is a beautiful place to stay but if you were more into the backcountry sort of camping then this will not be the place for you

Great for some people

As with everything at Disney, Fort Wilderness was well maintained, friendly, and a lot of fun.  This is a huge campground/resort!  We enjoyed our camping experience for what it was- not so much about nature and more about the theme parks.  Nightly campfire with Chip and Dale, awesome swimming area, horseback riding, fishing trips, and the obvious draw of Disney theme parks (the Magic Kingdom is a boat ride away!) made this a great place to call home for a few days.  The campground/resort has SO much to offer!  Highly recommend the Hoop-dee-doo review- lots of fun for the whole family :)

Hoop-Dee-Doo 

Disney!!

Enjoyed Fort Wilderness while visiting Disney while RV'ing to Orlando from Gainesville, FL. This was a cool way to experience the thrill of Disney but also not be holed up in an overpriced small resort hotel room. Granted there's not much nature to the campground, it still gives you the camping experience amongst a resort like atmosphere. Close to all the Disney parks. It is a large campground and area so bikes or renting the golf cart would come in handy especially if you're traveling with small children that walking a distance to the pool, etc would be a trek. If you're thinking of hitting up Disneyworld but plan to save by camping, would recommend. Very clean and well taken care of as expected for a Disney property.

Neat way to enjoy Disney

As difficult as it can be to get into this campground, we were somewhat displeased.  We expected it to be more 'disneyfied' like everything Disney and it wasn't.  The campground is relatively well maintained but not well policed like other campgrounds so noisy neighbors drinking all the time and going to bathroom in the shrubbery any time of the day continue to get away with it.  There is a ton of shade here, though.

One big plus is that you can charge everything in the parks to your campsite and also have items delivered to the campground office. Transportation to the park is not as convenient as you would think.  You either have to find a way to get to one of the bus stops, which then drive forever to get to one of the parks or wait for a long time to get to the park by ferry.  We found it quicker just to jump in our car and drive to the park.

Not bad, overall, but once was enough for us and we found better campgrounds in the Orlando area that are cheaper, with more amenities, that are easier to get into without having to reserve a spot at least a year in advance.  We stayed here in a motor home.

Average campground, lots of shade

This is Walt Disney World where “dreams come true!”  Huge resort with paved roads and pads.  Wooded and a bit close together, FHU 50A.  Great place to ride bikes.  Several pools throughout the resort.  Laundry in the bathhouse.  We were in site 1612 which is on the easy side of a curve to back into.  Ferry ride to the Magic Kingdom and Monorail there to other Disney Parks.  Nice free public transportation to get around.

Where dreams come true

Such a nice change of pace from the usually hotel stays on our family trip to Disney World! All the accommodations you would expect from Disney. Cabin, tent, or RV with restaurant, lake and family Disney moving showing on the big screen! 

Magic Camp

First off this is a huge glampground, not much camping here. Very well maintained for the most part. Bath houses are super clean. Plenty of access to transportation through Disney. The reason for the 3 star review is price. Yea, I know it's Disney but it's also a campground. On top of the overwhelming cost of everything within the park, it's just a little over the top for me and my style of camping. It's also very crowded with golf carts going non stop. 

Good for some folks... 

Like everything Disney does they try and bring camping to the masses with this Campground.

Very well maintained sites which are completely hosed down after each guest leaves (seemed like kind of a waste of water..., but also glad they weren't using a leaf blower) no real privacy from each other to speak of, but every site is laid out pretty well. Nice clean and well maintained facilities with flush toilets, water, showers and even laundry rooms. However, there are tons of RVs here and people seem to have "moved in" to some of the sites with tons of decorations (lights and ornaments) with pretty elaborate setups. You'll want to go do a little exploring to see the craziness.

They do a great job of providing lots of western and camping themed events to try and get people to enjoy "camping"

Fires are not allowed, but they provide a campfire review with Chip and Dale with some fires for roasting s'mores (these get packed with people)

The overall grounds are huge and you are not supposed to drive around (there isn't parking at different area either) so to explore the grounds plan on walking pretty far or as you'll see most people bring a bike or golf cart (there are lots and lots of golf carts) and you can look into renting them there as well.

Also, you will definitely want to head down to the water and see the [Electrical Water Pageant](https://disneyworld.disney.go.com/entertainment/magic-kingdom/electrical-water-pageant/). **_It's the oldest continuous parade that Disney has and it's really amusing!_**

Camping with an entertainment twist

Stayed two nights after a Disney Cruise. Amazing campground with so much to do. Would love to plan a week-long trip and do the parks every other day. Great maintained campsites. Clean and wonderful bathhouse facilities. Excellence transportation to the parks and within the campground. Golf carts available for rental.

Disney Magic + Camping! 

How could being at Disney be a bad thing? Even when tent camping it was amazing. Never a mosquito in sight. Geckos all around. GREAT for bike riding around the campsite.

Exactly what one would expect from disney

We went as a group with the boy scouts. We only camped we did not visit the parks. If we had wanted to, it would have been extremely easy to do so. They have buses that take you to other parts of Fort wilderness and there is tons to do on site!!! And it doesn’t cost a fortune. The pool is included in the stay. Renting canoes was extremely reasonable as well as bike rental. The buses took you to the other part of the park ( as mentioned) where you can access the stables, shops, places to eat etc. not to mention you can watch the fireworks every night if you wanted. Awesome facilities !!! Bathrooms/showers are very nice with A/C. Overall great vibe ( its Disney after-all). Loved it!

Camping the Disney Way

We have been staying at Ft Wilderness since 1972\. We used to pull up to the gate and say that we want to stay in loop 100, 200 or 400 and we could get right in. Now if you don't call several month's in advance you can't even get in the campground. But it is the best around. They need to add more sights.

Rated 10

It is expensive as campgrounds go but if you are going to Disney it is worth it. Clean facilities and like all Disney properties they take real good care of you.

FANTASTIC

Pricey but it's Disney. Lots of activities to do at the campground without going to the parks. Clean and well maintained campsites and bathrooms. The roads are narrow in the loops and the sites can be difficult to get into. Pet friendly with dog parks and trails.

Lots of activities 

Great for Kids and Adults

We spent a week in the 1900 loop. It was close to the bus stop for quick access anywhere in the campground or any of the Disney Parks. It was quiet and the bathrooms were very clean.

Fantastic 

Love love this campground. It has everything and more that a regular campground would have. You are close to all the parks. When you get there park your car and never move it again till it time to go home. Spend the day at one of the parks and at the end of the day relax around the fire or come back to camp for a afternoon nap and relax. Great park well worth the money to stay here. Well definitely do this again.

Wonderful place

It’s the true Disney experience in a campground. It’s perfect all the way around. They offer everything!

Amazing

Camp fire songs with chip and dale. Free boats to parks and other resorts within disney. Free buses and monorail. Even if you dont want to spend the money on park tickets it has so much to do and see for free Disney springa is loaded with nightly entertainment and restaurants and shops. All free to explore. And they have the boardwalk area area

everything
this is true Disney style! it has everything for everyone! bathrooms are emasculate , store has what you need. Boat or bus service to theme parks




Everything!

What can be better that camping within view of Space Mountain and Cinderella’s castle? Even roughing it, the Disney touch is evident. Highly recommend dinner at the Hoop-De-Doo.

Camping With Chip & Dale!

I cannot say enough good things about this campground. You get all the perks of staying on Disney property for a fraction of the cost. We stayed for 10 days Nov/Dec so everythingwas decorated for Christmas. Not as many food choices as some of the other resorts, but we mostly are in the parks or our camper anyway. You check in at a drive thru window, which my daughter loves. Pool was very nice as was the beach area. Preferred Campsite was a little tight to get intowith a 33 foot travel trailer, but was also super private with the landscaping.

Everything Disney does is perfect!

Would return again and again! Best customer service! Best dining options! Great amenities, pools, movies, character interactions, hikes, water sports, proximity to the parks, everything here is amazing! From cabins to campsites you can’t go wrong!

Excellent Campground 

We go a couple of times a year and it is the best. We have tent camp, used a pop and driven an RV. They also have cabins for those that do not want to “rough” it. It is a great place to start the camping lifestyle. My kids love it. Best time to go is Halloween and Christmas. Visitors will decorate their sites and it’s a lot of fun to visit. Every night there is a campfire and movie. There is a complete calendar of events that are free and some that require an extra cost.

Best way to see Disney

Our favorite time to visit is during the December holiday season. Many campsites are heavily decorated and the kids love riding around at night to look at the lights. I highly recommend renting a golf cart if you do not have one! There can be quite a bit of distance between your site and the pool, store, etc. depending on which loop you end up in. My kids love taking their bikes and I feel safe letting them circle the loop without me. We have gone every year for 10 years. This campground is great as long as you don’t mind being near lots of people!

Safe, Fun, plenty to do

If you love the magic of Disney and love camping, than Disney Fort Wilderness Campground is exactly what you need for your next camping destination. Not only does the campground provide beautiful sites for tents, pop ups, and RV’s of all sizes- the entertainment and fun is unbeatable for the price. There is a variety of special happenings seasonally as well other great offerings around the property that are included to you as a guest of the resort. You can book a fishing excursion, enjoy a picnic, kick back on the beach and enjoy the fireworks and water parade or just chill at one of the many resting spots located all over the camp ground. If you’re not a big camper that’s ok too, there’s plenty to do for every person in your traveling Party, all you need to do is unlock the magic.

Magical Camping 

SO where to start.. This camp ground is very expensive to stay. For a pop up tent campsite it's going to put you back about $200.. That does NOT include passes to Disney. You DO however have access to the other resorts. The campground itself is very nice.

Very EXPENSIVE

Wanted to check this off my list. We spend three days here. Nice campground and maybe worth the price if you are going the parks. The sites are close and the campground is huge. Glad we did it probably wouldn’t do it again.

Bucket List

By far the cleanest and well kept campground we have stayed at! Sites are very big. Lots of activities for children. planning our next Disney vacation already! 

BEAUTIFUL!!!

I loved this campground. We are not Disney people but our kids wanted to go to universal and I could not find a nice campground with good reviews near universal so we decided to stay at Disney. Honestly, we are not Disney people but Disney definitely goes above and beyond on accommodations so what better place to stay then a Disney resort. This place is great. I really felt like I was at a campground and not at a Disney resort.

Checkin: we drove up to a gate where they asked us our name and then drove into the checkin area. We never had to get out of our car to checkin. The people were very nice and knowledgeable at checkin.

our campsite was 1709\. We were walking distance to the pool, arcade, trading post, and campfire/sing along. There were about 20 rv/camping spots in our loop. The area is wooded and quiet with bathrooms off to one side and laundry facilities on the other side. You need bands to uses these facilities and we were given bands on checkin.

My only problem with wilderness camping. There is not a lot of room in the loops to pull your rv into the spot. There is plenty of room between your rv and your neighbor next to you but not a lot of room across from your spot. We have a 27’ rv that is 33’ from top to top. Holy moly did it take a lot to get this into our spot. Our neighbor across from us had to move his truck and several neighbors were helping direct us into our spot. Everyone we spoke with complained about the lack of space to get a big rv into these spot. But... once in it was very nice.

Buses run very frequently and never had an issue getting a bus to the amenities. We took the bus to the marina area for dinner at the buffet, to watch the fireworks/ light show, and to see Cinderella’s horses and carriage. The bus drivers were very nice and knowledgeable about services and amenties in the resort. You can take the bus to the pool are but our lot was close enough to walk.

the Bathroom and laundry facility: the bathroom had 3 toilets and 3 shower / dressing are. They were clean and decorated with butterfly theme. They were nice. The laundry facility had about 6 washers and dryer. It was a laundry room nothing crazy. They did have a vending machine to buy laundry detergent.

The pool, arcade, sing along and trading post:

the pool is a nice size pool with a small water slide. There is a splash area in the back for small kids. The pool was ok. Honestly I expected more from Disney but it was clean, nice, and the kids can swim. I felt the lifeguards are very rude. Disney should look into this because they were rude.

The arcade was small and pathetic. Again expected more from Disney.

The sing along was fun. Chip and dale walk around to everyone. they ask that you don’t leave your spot and they will come to you and really they do. They stopped at every spot to take pictures. The fire pit was small and difficult to roast marshmallows. Again I expected more from Disney. There is a food truck to buy food and if you need marshmallows they are sold in the trading post right there.

My kids love pin trading and none of the employees here wear pins🙁 but from 7-730 the stores open a board and the kids can trade pins.

Overall I would stay here again if I ever go back to Disney.

Quiet and outside the hustle of Disney craziness

We have gone to Fort Wilderness 5 times in the last 7 years. We bring our two dogs with us in our RV. It is very pet friendly. The Premium loops are a good size and have a paved pad to park on with full hookups The other loops (preferred and full)are tight for a Class A RV but good size for a travel trailer.The pool is very nice. There are a lot of activities at the campground. They have free movies and bonfires and sing alongs. You can canoe, horseback ride, take carriage rides and archery lessons for a fee. The Hoop De Do Musical Review is a great dinner show at the campground. Mickeys Backyard Barbeque is also on the grounds and is a good dinner and show if you have younger children. Trails End Restaurant has a fantastic family style buffet or you can order takeout to take back to your RV. The two stores have great souvenirs and all the camping basics you need. You can rent golf carts or use the free internal bus service to get around or ride your bike. They have convenient transportation to all the parks, water parks and to Disney Springs.

Best way to stay at Disney

Who doesn’t love this place!!! From the second you get there it’s an experience. From the bot ride to Magic Kingdom to all the great activities they have. All I can say is Rent a golf cart, it’s worth it!!!

Love! 

This campground is perfect if you want that Disney experience but also love the outdoors! You get the feeling of being at Disney because you can still do all the typical Disney vacations packages BUT you're camping. You can bring your own gear/camper or rent different "rooms" from them.

Fun and Disney authentic

Outstanding

Rent a golf cart if you don't have one. Transportation was OK and the Tavern was very nice.

Very big place!

The best campground in Florida ! Fun beautiful and lots to do even without going to the parks Wildlife is abundant Bunnies deer turkey

Totally awesome

Anything that has to do with Disney World is magical, so ofcourse the campsites are beautiful... other than some loud, noisy group of people near our site it was close to perfect, they truly thought of everything to make camping comfortable, entertaining &amp; fun

Almost a dream come true 

We really love camping here. The campground is well laid out and the campers really get into the Disney spirit with decorations. The bath houses are immaculate. There is bus service throughout the campground with bus and boat service to the Parks.

So much fun!

Had an amazing time at Ft Wilderness.  Everything I would expect from Disney.  Very clean, spacious site, lots for kids to do.  We rented a premium site in the 800 loop.   Definitely one of my favorite places.  

Worth Every Penny !!

One of, if not the best campground, we have ever visited. Been there many times, getting pricy, just to camp.

Premier Camping 

Transportation is available but we rented a golf cart and took our bikes!! Lots to see and do. Will be returning

Awesome family time. Did not do parks just camped so much to do and so fun 

It’s so much fun! If you bring kids make sure you bring bikes and scooters! The Chip and Dale thing they have is great! Roast marshmallows and dance with Chip and Dale. You can bring your golf cart or rent one. There are horses and pony rides. We love the Mickey backyard BBQ if we can afford it. Little kids love dancing with the characters. And all you can eat and drink plus wine and beer. The kids would rather camp there than go to the crowded park.

We love it!

I know, I know, before you start the "that's not camping, it's Disney"... Okay, yes, it's Disney, but it's not like visiting anything else on Disney property. You don't feel like you're at Walt Disney World, with thousands of other people. We reserved one site, and had 5 adults and 3 kids staying there comfortably. Two tents and two cars and we still had room around the fire pit and picnic table.

It is surprisingly quiet at night, considering the size and amount of kids running around. The amenities are endless. You really can just stay within the campground and not visit the Parks and have a great time. From horseback riding to hiking, canoeing, fishing and boating, there is so much to do! One of my favorite things that I have been doing since I was a kid is going to watch a movie under the stars. They do it every night and have free s'mores for the kids and Chip n Dale come to meet them. It's really a fun night, for young and old.

There are a couple of restaurants and little general stores with basic groceries, so they really make it so you have everything you need.

Being Disney, it's a bit higher than your average campground, but the amenities and perks make up for it. Should you choose to include the Parks, you can take advantage of Extra Magic Hours, with free transportation throughout Disney property.

It really is a magical place!

There's nowhere like Disney

I’ve been camping my entire life in the woods in New England or out west in northern Nevada. But Disney camping or “glamping” is a first for me and so much fun! My first time at Disney and camping at Disney was for my honeymoon two years ago and now we go back every year with our son. It’s really an amazing experience. 

Best time camping 

What can I say, everything is just about right, except the price.  We went over Easter (spring break) and it was too busy.  But it was clean and the staff is awesome.  They were really helpful.

It’s Disney

We think this the best way to experience WDW. It is supremely organized and amazingly clean. The comfort stations are high end. The spaces are surprisingly spacious. There are different levels of site amenities, but all are terrific. Do yourself a favor and book the premium. (RV) It is all hard surface and level. The lesser priced sites are all level too but use a crushed shell material that track all over in your RV. Full hookups are of course available, along with cable TV, and wired internet. Two pools, two stores, two restaurants. Take a boat to MK. DO NOT miss the Hoop-De-Do show at the lake end of the campground. You get all the perks of staying at a hotel resort here, but sleep in your own bed. Make your reservations as far in advance as possible to get the dates you want. Check in is fun even if there is a line. 
Rent a golf cart, you’ll be sorry if you don’t, the campground is gigantic. 

This is penultimate “camping”

Make sure to go to the Hoopty doo review dinner show!

Fantastic

Gets filled quickly. Fun place and cost effective way to enjoy Disney Magic.  Everything you need is there...

Close to the magic

I have been camping in Fort Wilderness since 1972. We used to pull up to the check-in and get any loop we wanted. Always picked Loop 100, 200 or 400. Now when you want to stay there it's hard to get in at all. The rates went crazy, as a Florida resident I can stay in one of the hotels just about the same price and they make my bed. At one time if you owned Disney Stock you could stay for half price on non blackout times. Bought 6 shares and then they quit that program. I would rate it 5 stars except it being hard to get in anymore. I have reservations for September and will enjoy it. Wish they would double the size of it.

Great campground, but needs to be bigger

The bathrooms are pretty nice, as is the pool we went to. Camp sites do not have burn rings, are close together and not private. Everything needs reservations though and the pick up and drop off times for the golf carts are very inconvenient. The arcade at the facility by the ferry was awful. Games not working and taking money, things falling apart, other games malfunctioning. Needless to say that was very unfortunate for our 9 year old and us after we put twenty some dollars on an arcade card for a bunch of broken games. Really for the price and location, I was pretty disappointed. It is a glorified, needing of updating and maintenance, overpriced campground because of its affiliation. Put this out in the country or somewhere lesser known and it’d get 5/6 stars out of 10; all day long. But it is still the cheapest way to stay at Disney.

Below expectations...

If you love the outdoors and the magic of the mouse, this is the spot. Dont go over the summer months unless in an rv or cabin though. Too hot

Glamping Disney Style

Great campsites the only reason for 4stars is cost. Expensive camping for 1 or 2. The plus is you are allow up to 10 on a campsite. Plenty to do. Private sites.  Reservations ned to be booked way out. Can jandle the larger rv’s.

Its Disney

Amazing and Disney always treat you like Royalty 24-7

Words can’t describe 

Great campground with lots of activities. I’ve found that Full-Hookup sites are preferable, IMO, to Premium ones. 

Great Family Time!

What can I say? There's not a single bad thing about this campground.  The site is cleaned before I got there, and I don't mean straightened up, it's scrubbed clean. Perfectly level concrete pad at the perfect angle to easily back into. The buses come often enough. 

It's Disney!

Facilities are good, clean and accessible. Not really near anything. Convenient boat ride to Magic Kingdom. 

It is a good campground. But you may want a car as things like the waterparks, Disney Studio, Animal Kingdom can only be reached by car or a very long bus ride. 

We stayed in this campground for 5 days. The pads are washed before each guest arrives. Sites are roomy and allow plenty of space to park the tow vehicle with ample room remaining. The resort/campground provides transportation to all of the parks and within the resort area, too. Two stores and and four restaurants are available in the campground, but are most easily accessible by bicycle or golf cart. Golf carts are available to rent, but there were none available during our stay. Personal golf carts are allowed, and I’d strongly suggest having one. Plenty of activities are available for families and mostly geared toward younger campers; campfire, s’mores, movies, and visits from Disney characters. The resort has two pools, each with its own atmosphere. One has a spray ground and waterside while the other is meant to be quiet and relaxing. We spent most of our time in the parks, but found that we could get around in the campground on our bikes when we did need to go somewhere besides the amusement parks. There are plenty of activities that give families a break from the amusement parks. The staff is always helpful and friendly. Someone is always available for assistance or general information. There was always someone at the bus stop to ensure guests knew where they needed to go. And overflow parking area is provided for guests who have to move out of the campground at the end of their stay, but still want to spend more time in the amusement parks. This was very helpful for us, we got a few extra hours before we left the area. 


Pleasant and convenient 

This is a great place to go! Get your family and your bikes! So much to do, you don’t have to go to any amusement park! Activities are everywhere. For free! Pool games, make movies. Beach, playgrounds. It is expensive to stay. 

Best In Florida !

Of course the experience is great. Lots of water since the rain has been insane. Just hit the pool and nothing else. It’s always fun coming here. 

Disney being Disney.

Rent the go cart! Only $60 a day but well worth it! Big park so lots of walking if you don’t have the cart (or you can bring your own and/or bikes).  Our grandsons loved the golf cart! They have two pools, one geared for kids (closed at 11pm) and another one more for adults (open 24 hours).  Bathrooms were extremely clean and air conditioned. Campfire show and movie at night and don’t forget to bring your s’mores to roast! Fireworks and light parade over the lake at night as well. Our space was 1109 and very nice...towards middle of park. They have about three or four places to eat if you don’t want to cook.  No mosquitos which is so rare for Florida but Disney goes to great lengths to rid the mosquitos.  Great time .... you will love it!

Great family campground!

Be prepared for Florida summer storms going in winter much better.Everything you need accessable.

Great for families

Great campground with lots to do. Pool is opened during the day with lifeguard. Lake is great to sit by or take a boat. Have to rent it from them, unable you take your own. They have nightly campfires that are Disney themed, Chipmunks. They have lots of paved areas that you can walk or ride bikes or rent a golf cart. They also have things like pool games and archery classes along with horse back riding. They are also on the Disney transportation line so it's free to take a bus around campsite or to Disney parks. Only downside is this place is big so walking to some areas can be daunting unless you have bikes or golf cart. The sites are the cleanest you can have but they come at a price. Unless it's slow season pricing for an rv site can cost over $80 a night. They have tent and pop up sites at a lower cost then you have full sites for travel trailers and bigger rvs and then there is also premium sites that are bigger and also closer to the main areas. 

Great amenities, lots to do, close to everything

perect

The amenities are nice, pool has a slide and there’s a splash pad/kiddie area by the pool. There are boats to the parks, horseback riding and bike paths. The only downside was that the campground was noisy. Lots of people blaring music and driving through the campground on golf carts playing music loud. The sites were a little bit close together but not terribly. Definitely a vey manicured campground with paved roads and driveways to the sites. We also had a site that backed to another road so there were buses going by till about midnight.

Amenities

Great bathrooms. Great sites. Bus service around campground and to parks. Staff is amazing. Good store on site. Multiple pools. 

Great sites

Very well maintained resort. Clean bathhouses. Great transportation. 

Amazing campground

Loved our stay at Fort Wilderness. Our favorite Disney Resort. Super dog friendly with an amazing dog park. Great location and so many wonderful things to do here. 

Can we live here forever?

Of course it’s Disney so it’s great. Lots to do, great transportation options to attractions and restaurants,etc.
Golf cart rentals available but pricey. Horseback riding and dinner show right on site
Favorite place to stay in Orlando area 

Great Disney campground 

Fun camping near disney

Best camping experience for new camping families.  It has great amenities, for example pool area, arcade, fishing areas, great trails and restaurants.  The pool can get crowded so its best to get there early. There are two restaurants on site but they are pricey.  Every night they have movie night and you get to do a meet and greet with Chip and Dale. Best campsite for smaller kids and families.

Camping Disney Style

We opted for the premium pad and loved the space. Great for a weekend getaway with the family and pooch. The only thing I will say is to think about what loop space you are in. Ours had the walkway to the showers right next to it  people walked by us all day which was ok for us but others may not like that. 

PIZZA is phenomenal. 

Great Premium Pads!

As a annual pass holder I love this place but it's $152 a night for a basic full hookup site.

Very nice but expensive.

Golf carts, golf carts, golf carts! It’s relentless 24 hours a day! Loud stereos and crazy lights drag racing on the roads! We stayed here on Halloween weekend and it was crazy, might have been just that stay but I’m not willing to try it again. The campground is typical Disney style, clean and kept up very well￼. We won’t be back 

Ruthless golfs! 

Everything was nice and well kept. Had some trees for privacy between spaces. Since this is Disney, you have to wear a mask everywhere away from your site you go, including on a golf cart or walk, which was the only downside for me. 

Camping, Disney Style

This is by far, our favorite campground.  It’s spotless, it’s convenient and it’s Disney! 
One word of warning.. walk your site before backing in especially with big fifth wheels.  The site might be tight and you don’t realize it as you pull up.  Thank goodness campers are friendly and helpful people and normally jump right in to assist.  

Happiest Campground on Earth

The 750 acre Disney’s Fort Wilderness Resort has 847 campsites and 363 cabins(moderate level resort rooms). Campsite fees range from$75 to$189 per night and cabins from$364 to$568 per night. We booked early on their website for our full hookup campsite(50amp electric, water, sewer and cable) https://disneyworld.disney.go.com/resorts/campsites-at-fort-wilderness-resort/ If you have difficulty making reservations for sequential nights, check to see if one night at a time is available and then call customer service about 2 weeks prior to your arrival. They are more than happy to ensure your reservation reflects the full number of nights in a single campsite. Disney does not allow you to select your site in advance, instead they assign you a site based on a purchased tier. At check-in you can provide a few preferred sites and they may be able to accommodate your request based on availability. Each loop has inner sites(camper angled toward the road) and outer sites(camper angled away from the road). We prefer the privacy of the outer loops; this gives us more space to enjoy nature. As Fort Wilderness has thousands of campsites, we recommend using either a bike or golf cart as transportation to the outpost(store), restaurants, pools, playgrounds and horse ranch. There are no parking spaces for cars at any of the amenity locations. To get to the theme parks, Disney transportation is a must with the option for bus to Epcot, Hollywood Studios and Animal Kingdom or boat to Animal Kingdom. Be sure to try the Ribs from P&amp; J’s Southern takeout!

Where the magic is!

we spent 8 nights here and as you would expect, Disney does it right!  clean, quiet, so many amenities you cannot do them all!  we had probably one of the worst sites in the campground, right in the front of one of the loops and on a corner with no real privacy.  it wasn't an issue for us but its something to watch out for when you pull in. great pool and pond to fish or boat in.

everything you would expect plus some.

What’s there to say.... It’s Disney it the woods. You can Tent, RV or rent a Cabin. Of course there are different levels of sites . $,$$,$$$... and so on. All sites have FULL hook up. Water, power, and  sewer. NO open top fires. You must have an approved fire pit with a top to stop the Ambers from flying away. NO exceptions. The place is huge and I highly recommend a bike or golf cart to get around. Both can be rented but at a price.

You can just stay at the campgrounds because there is tons to do. We have stayed there many time and never went to the parks and still got the Disney feel and treatment.  There are a couple restaurants to eat at.  2 pools and one is better then the other.  They do nightly shows with characters meet-n-greets at NO CHARGE! I believe it was Chip and Dale. They have a FULL marina where you can hang out at the beach, rents boats, fishing trips, etc...at a cost of Course.  

There is a pond/river running thoughout the camp grounds. You can fish(fee) and rent Canoes. Nice little adventure that anyone can navigate. 

There is an are kinda like a petting zoo. And so much more.  Overall a great “Disney”very kids friendly place for the family.


It’s Disney (glamping at its finest)

Disney magic plus camping... what else can I say. Great facilities great atmosphere.  Only negative is lack of fires being allowed.  

Worth the extra money

Love everything about this park. It was gorgeous,  clean, spacious, friendly, and so fun. We didn’t go check out the amenities really, it was too cold. But, taking a boat to the magic kingdom adds to the magic of the park. My dog loved the dog park. We went at Christmas time and everyone’s campsite was all decorated with blow up and Disney and festive Christmas lights. We don’t have any children but still felt the magic of it. I’d totally recommend staying there if you’re in Orlando and wanting to go to Disney. 

Love!!!! 

We huge Disney fans but it is the nicest campsite we’ve stayed at. 

The Best Campsite.

Probably the best resort in Disney, there is some construction going on but only going to make it better.. 
top notch 

Wonderful 

Great camp ground especially if you are a newbie.  Came here on our very first RV trip and their full
Hook up, big pad sites were great.  Some sites are very tight to back into so beware.  We have camped 5 times In the past year at the Fort.

Just Disney

Best ever

Our second trip here and it is always a blast. Rented a golf cart and the kids loved that. Problem is the mask policy as soon as you step out of your site you are required to wear a mask. Just a pain in the but. Other than that this is a must stop. 

Wonderful place masks keep it from 5star

Stayed here in Feb 2021. Love how spread out the campsites are and how quiet this entire resort is. Can't wait for everything to open back up fully because the Trails End brunch is the best breakfast food buffet in all of Disney World. 
Nice walking paths. Definitely suggest bringing a bike along since there are so many trails to explore. 

The Best Way to Stay at Disney

I go here every year and I can't wait to go again and again!

Amazing experience!

Our first stay at Fort Wilderness we stayed 3 weeks and have been addicted since. This is not your average campground. The sites are secluded with trees and wildlife. The one lane road getting into the site loops can be tight for larger rigs and some sites are different lengths and more difficult to maneuver than others. The campground is very large about 1,000 acres I believe. We have seen turkey, armadillo, deer, alligators, etc. armadillo typically come out to feed at the later evening hours, and are not shy about foraging your site. Alligators were usually only seen at night by the creek via golf cart. One staff member told us to notify Disney of any sighting and they will immediately remove the alligator. There is a beach and lake, however, there is no swimming. You can fish. There is horseback riding, Segway, golf carts, Hoo-Dee-Do revue (when it returns), buffet style restaurant (if it returns), a tavern and fast-ish restaurant. Sometimes a good truck also. There is a water pageant at night. You can rent fishing excursions (extra cost). Canoes, kayaks and bicycles are available to rent. Note: the canoes and kayaks must be used on the creek in the middle of the recreation area. It is a closed unmarked loop and probably not the best for a novice unless accompanied by an intermediate. The water is black- some kind of algae the staff stated. They will give you a air horn to sound if you see a gator, get stuck, overturn, etc. the staff then must board their own vessel to come find you... have not experienced this, but did witness it. There are basketball courts, tennis etc, and the bike barn will also provide these supplies. Archery for children. Two pools and a kids area. Snack bar at the one pool. Once you stay here, it’ll be hard to not fall in love and judge every other campground. 

Absolute best of the best 

We loved the campground.  So much beauty, wildlife, and activities.  Kids had a wonderful time at pool and participating in trivia nights and games.  Bike rides were fun and enjoyed going to marina to watch light parade. Saw lots of wildlife!! Squirrels, rabbits, wild turkey, and lots of deer! 

Our campsite wasn’t the most private or largest. But the proximity to pool and activities was wonderful.  Comfort stations were very clean. 

Excellent Family Vacation

Awesome campground, clean bathrooms, nice amenities. The grounds are massive so either bring or rent a golf cart or bring bikes.

Disney Nailed It

The campgrounds are very well maintained as you would expect from a Disney property. The sites are equipped with cable, full hook up and a barbecue (preferred site). The problem with some of these sites is it is very difficult to get in them, especially this site (332) and the ones on either side. There are trash bins and fencing directly across the street and it makes backing in very difficult.  The prices that Disney charges for these sites is a little over the top, but this place is always full when we are here sooo…. Golf cart rentals are $67/day and they are usually sold out as well so reserve them well in advance. 

I would’ve given 5⭐️‘a but…

This was a very nice campgrounds. Lots of fun things to do. The archery and horseback riding seemed a little pricey so we had to skip on them but the pool was the highlight for the kids and the playgrounds are fun. 

Awesome

just wanted to let everyone know that a great way to experience Disney, but with a major savings to a hotel room ... is a stay at Fort Wilderness. It is very well kept and has everything a family could need .

disney by van

We have stayed at WDW Fort Wilderness many times, but never in a premium spot. We were pleasantly surprised with the difference in size in the Premium site over a Preferred site. The spot has everything you can imagine with the exception of a fire 🔥 ring. The comfort stations are near by and are modern and air conditioned. Everything is accessible by bus, walking or golf carts. 

Awesome Premium Site

I have been to Disney many times and this was my first time camping here! I loved it! It is so nice to have your own space, bathrooms are really clean and cast members are great. Sad that since I came in April 2021 that not most of the fun activities weren’t open, however there was still lots to do. I actually relaxed this Disney trip! For the first time I went to the pool and just enjoyed being around family. Boat straight to the Magic Kingdom is a huge plus! Best advice I can give is to RENT A GOLF CART! “Looping” is tons of fun( just driving around the campsite loops) but also just getting to the buses to the parks is tough without a golf cart, sure you can bike or wait on a bus, but it only takes you to the front...trust me rent the golf cart! Fort Wilderness is HUGE, you won’t regret spending the extra money.

Best Disney Vacation!

Nice site. We had a really nicely shaded one right by the convenience house.  Very quiet area.  We thought of renting a golf cart but the Mrs. Said it wasn’t worth it.  We literally walked or rode our bikes around the whole area, not each individual campground area.

Will we go again?  Maybe, after we’ve tried the many other less expensive/non Disney campgrounds.

It’s Disney.

Our first time RVing and wanted to stop somewhere with a full hookup. Checkin was a breeze as was hooking up. We had a great spot on water. We did the premium Meadows location. Right next to restrooms, bus stop, Amore's, store, rentals, pool... This is probably the best stop we will ever make 

Can never go wrong with Disney 

Awesome. Just make sure you have a golf cart or bicycles to get around the campground as it is huge.
