Disney’s Fort Wilderness Resort & Campground VIP Top Tips
This section is sponsored by the Disney experts at The Magic for Less Travel, Authorized Disney Vacation Planner.
Want convenience? Rent a golf cart during your stay. Not only can you get around the resort property more easily, but you can drive and park it at the bus stop to the parks. No need to rely on the timing of internal transportation, Just remember to bring something fun to identify your cart among all the others!
Take the boat! There’s nothing like taking a boat from Fort Wilderness Resort to Magic Kingdom Park! It’s a scenic route that passes by Wilderness Lodge and the Contemporary Resort!
Visit during the holidays! Guests at Fort Wilderness love to decorate their campsites and cabins for the holidays! It’s worth a golf-cart ride around the resort!
If you want convenience, a car or cart rental is nearly a must. If you don’t have either, plan to have patience. You will still have fun without a rental, but you have to allow extra travel time to/from the parks.
Recreational Activities: At Tri-Circle-D Ranch, there are several fun activities offered: 45-minute guided horseback rides, stable tours, carriage rides, holiday sleigh rides. (Additional fees may apply.)
Quick Service at the Meadow Snack Bar closes early, so getting a late night bite can be tricky if you don’t have your own supplies.
