Disney's Fort Wilderness Resort & Campground offers full hookup sites with water, electric, sewer, and cable, accommodating tent camping, RVs, cabins, and glamping setups. Horse-friendly amenities include access to trails for riding and pet-friendly policies throughout the property. The 750-acre resort features 847 campsites spread across multiple loops with both inner sites (camper angled toward the road) and outer sites (camper angled away from the road) providing varying levels of privacy and nature views. Most sites have fire pits with protective covers to prevent flying embers, and picnic tables. The spacious layout accommodates large rigs with room for trucks and trailers.
Trail access connects riders to the resort's extensive network of paths that wind through wooded areas. Transportation within the resort requires bikes or golf carts, as there are no parking spaces for cars at amenity locations. The Spirit of the Suwannee Music Park & Campground in Live Oak provides another horse-friendly option with multiple accommodation types including tent sites, RV spots, cabins, glamping, and yurts. Both properties maintain a clean, well-kept atmosphere with accessible facilities. Reservations can be made through the respective property websites, with Disney's Fort Wilderness sites ranging from $75 to $189 per night depending on location and amenities. Campers should plan early, especially during peak seasons, to secure preferred sites.

ScoutHaven't been camping here. Based on the photos, it looks like it is a beautiful place. Looks like somewhere to have a fun, crazy, spontaneous camp experience. I prefer natural nature. Cutting the trails, fire wood, catching dinner, fighting mosquitoes without harsh chemicals. Preserving the world. Maybe make a reservation. Leave the dogs with a sitter and not have a care in the world.
ScoutQuiet. Definitely skewed toward equestrian. Sites are well spaced. Outer loop is best. Restroom/showers are very well kept. Not much for kids. Short trails are ok. Cayaking is best option if you're in to that. Relax here, enjoy the peace and have your favorite beverage
GuideThe six sites available are spread out in the Cary State Forest. You can see the tops of some RV’s but they’re not close. The site has a very nice picnic table, fire pit,benches around the fire pit, a free standing grill, water, electric and a concrete pad to park on with a tent site behind the pad. Grass is freshly cut and the site is clean!
TravelerMy family stayed at the park for a long weekend. Great park, but the vendor contract expired and a new one hasn’t been chosen. Because of this, canoe rentals, firewood, ice, etc. are not available in the park. Thankfully Publix is just up the road. We will be back, but not until the vendor situation is resolved.
GuideTook the littles (ages 5 &4) for their first tent camping trip - had a blast once they learned what s’mores were all about! Decent space, warm days and unusually cool nights.
GuideLots of amenities with plenty to do, water park was nice, ice cream shop, marina, and skeet range were cool. Staff was inconsistent - some allowed the kids to have fun but others break out the measuring stick to deny activities. Head scratching at times but will probably go back.
RangerThis site is very neat. You'll have to drive about 5 miles on an unpaved road to get to the sites. 30A hookup and water. I visited during the week in August and it was pretty empty. Nice and quiet. Lots of trails and wildlife.
ScoutWe had an awesome time here. The camp hosts were very helpful, professional, and friendly. The bathrooms and showers were exceptional and clean. If someone moved out, within 30 minutes there was someone checking their site for anything they may have left behind. The only complaint I have, is the other campers that let their dogs do their business and not pick it up. This is not a negative against the campground and their employees.
