In general, many RVers have had a positive experience staying at the RV sites at Disney's Fort Wilderness Campground. They have found them spacious, well-maintained, and well-located, with easy access to theme parks and various amenities and activities.
We recently were able to experience our first trip to the Fort Wilderness Campground and loved it. There are so many experiences that are offered. We only stayed 3 days and went to the parks but could only experience some of the campgrounds has to offer. We were able to enjoy the outdoor movie night with a bonfire. We already booked our next trip to Fort Wilderness without park passes so we could enjoy the amenities more.
There are few parking areas around the campgrounds, so you will need to take either the bus or rent a golf cart (rentals available upon request) to get from your campsite to the dining areas or pools. If you shop around for various weekends, you can find more affordable sites than peak season, so keep playing with the number of days and dates to find a booking that suits your budget.
Here at One Adventure, we offer our RV rental and delivery to Disney’s Fort Wilderness but require at least a 1-week rental for any deliveries (weekend to weekend). We do set everything up, so all you need is the booking, sheets, food, and electronics.
In conclusion, Disney's Fort Wilderness Campground is an excellent option for those looking for a unique Disney vacation experience. The natural setting and variety of activities and amenities make it an excellent choice for families and nature lovers. With various accommodation options and dining, it can cater to any budget.
