Fun and Disney authentic

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.

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!!!

Best way to stay at Disney

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.

Quiet and outside the hustle of Disney craziness

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.

Very EXPENSIVE

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.

Magical Camping

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.

Safe, Fun, plenty to do

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!

Best way to see Disney

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.

Everything Disney does is perfect!

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.

Wonderful place

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.

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.

Camping the Disney Way

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 with an entertainment twist

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. It's the oldest continuous parade that Disney has and it's really amusing!

Good for some folks...

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.
