[@gerryp9717]

One thing I would like to add to your terrific review is, the Disney staff at FW is amazing. We had two issues there...first a very drunk young couple in a tent next to our RV site...they made loud...very loud noise all night long and we head a small child with us. It was bad, and the park security folks came and tossed them out! Then we were visited by the management staff....they gave us free tickets to the park, fast passes, and were so nice, I have stayed in touch with one of the gents as a friend. The other issue was a stolen item, taken from my wife’s things while in the bathhouse shower. Disney replaced the item, no questions asked. It was a sizable cost, and they were so gracious about it! Great people, and a great place to be. Love your video! Keep on rollin!

[@kristymichael]

Wow! That's wonderful to hear how great the staff were during two events that could have really put a damper on your vacation.

[@quickgirl80]

It’s refreshing to hear about a large cooperation go above & beyond for their customers/guests. Thank you for sharing.

[@mpecue]

If you want to stay in a beautiful state park right nearby.. You can even hear the Disney fireworks that start at 8pm daily.. It's Magnolia County Park in Apopka is a great place with beautiful sites $17 a night.... power and water only... Nice place and minutes from Disney.

[@LongLongHoneymoon]

Thanks, great tip! If we had known about this option we might still be down there. :D We will keep this in mind for next time!

[@Tsiri09]

Thank you. I'll put that on my list of places to stay.

[@kennethbrooker]

County park

[@mpecue]

kennethbrooker Thanks for the correction.. I've edited my comment.. It's a beautiful park with paved sites.. loved it

[@SuperEnthused]

Great tip, thank you!

[@jackkazee4629]

Absolutely my favorite place to camp. Did you notice there seems to be no raccoons there? I have camped there many times, and have never seen one. Disney probably gives them free passes to Universal.

[@tysoncragg1]

Thanks, guys for the most informative, best produced video I have seen thus far related to Fort Wilderness. Many of the videos on the subject are full of jerky camera work, poor sound, and lame music. We are heading to Ft. Wilderness with our RV in a few months, and we really appreciate all of the information that you provide.

[@bethwheelermd]

Sean and Kristy are my aunt and uncle! I love to watch there videos! I think you gave them a nice comment! I’m now on my way to fw!

[@sunflower17k]

Thanks for giving Baby Girl so much screen time. She's adorable!

[@kevin-sawmill-lx25]

Just bought first travel trailer and just subscribe. Y’all have a lot of good tips. Thanks! Lord knows I need them.

[@pauletteh7578]

$100 a night? Can't find a hotel room for that price anymore!!!!

[@erichansen1897]

I believe that dog trail is the old Fort Wilderness railroad track

[@robertbabcock7110]

Eric Hansen it is!! Wish they still had it

[@badbiker666]

The railroad track was popular back in the 70s. It was a small-scale railroad but the track was not laid correctly and the cars kept derailing so they took it down. Also, the tracks ran far too close to camp sites and there was a potential safety issue. I have not heard that anyone was ever injured on the tracks, but the potential alone was worrisome so that was just another reason why Disney discontinued the railroad.

[@colormedubious4747]

Pro tip: If you stay on-property, NEVER drive yourself to the theme parks. It's a major PITA and a real time-sink. WDW has an excellent internal transportation system. Use the buses, boats, and monorail. Your rack rate includes them so you might as well use them! If you don't want to "rough it" in an RV (lol), check out Disney's Value Resorts. No matter where you stay, buy a "passport" multi-day multi-park pass. Consider getting an annual pass if you're a frequent visitor, especially if you're a Florida resident.

[@JohnMarucci]

Respectfully disagree. I stayed at Ft Wilderness last week. Took the bus to Epcot. Took 15 min to walk to the bus stop, 20 minutes wait for a bus, 15 minutes to get to the park. 50 minutes from door to door. Coming back was worse (1:05) b/c the bus drops off at Wilderness Lodge first. I am an annual pass holder, so I can park for free. Next time, I took my truck and it took only 20 minutes from door to door. My point is, Disney transportation isn't always a good idea. It really depends on where you are staying and the routes they take. Some places the bus service is abysmal, like the value resorts mentioned. Long lines, few buses and get stuffed in. Don't close the parks and expect to get on a bus to value resort quickly. I've waited for over an hour waiting for a bus at MK when closing the park. I use rental cars often for this reason, There are some exceptions, but from a couple of decades of doing Disney from many resorts, it isn't a given that Disney transportation is a slam dunk as depicted.

[@josephsolomito4703]

Understand your comments regarding the transportation system. Sometimes you get stuck. Depends on the time of day also. (Less buses in the middle of the day) Once you get to know the bus schedule (I'm also a long time annual pass holder) it is easier to predict. And don't forget, the transportation can be as much fun as the destination. You could have taken the boat to Magic Kingdom and the Monorail to EPCOT. When I'm at Disney, I try to forget the clock as much as possible and just enjoy the experience.

[@SuperEnthused]

Totally agree with this!! Make use of on property transportation, or even use Uber or Lyft, but don't waste time driving around on property.

[@Joe-cu4hi]

I just tried to make reservation at Fort Wilderness it was $170 per night for standard site, we’ll try in sept-oct when it’s a little more reasonable at $79 per night

[@LongLongHoneymoon]

Wow! I now really feel like an old geezer. ("I swear I remember paying $50 a night!")

[@yankeesusa1]

It is no longer that low unless they offer the rare 20% discount that is not advertised. Currently for September at the lowest rate it's 90 per night for full campsite. Preferred and premium are 15 to 30 more.

[@greygoose4x46]

Jaz wow $110 for the “most expensive site” really isn’t that bad / I think rates overall are going up unfortunately... even Acadia was $140 a night for premium sites

[@twdenman1]

Sorry I missed your live broadcast. I received notifications through KZbin, but not Facebook. Great information. Sean, I'm with you, Theme Parks. eh, I can take them or leave them. I'm not much for crowds. Thanks for sharing.

[@EverythingRVbyPat]

Actually made me want to go to Florida and stay at the RV park there at Disney. Thanks!!!!

[@ccut1955]

Thank You for all the great info on Fort Wilderness, it has help me make up my mind on staying here. Also LOVE all the videos you do and hope to see you guys out there to sit and chat over a cool adult beverage one day. Oh! it will be on us. Thanks again and Safe Travels.

[@BocaChevy]

We visit a few times a yeasr but Halloween is the best time to go! We book over a year in advance but it's amazing

[@LongLongHoneymoon]

Yes, Halloween at Fort Wilderness is fantastic! Kristy has a fantastic Cruella DeVille costume that she breaks out on special occasions. Halloween is the only time you can go to a Disney park dressed as a Disney character...

[@jimsamolczyk3774]

$115.00 a night that is typical of disney. Disney has fixed it so you have to take out a second mortgage to visit the park. We are full timers and dollars are always to be watched closely. We haven’t visited disney since 1979. I realize things have gone up but i will never pay those prices. They have lost me.

[@rebeccarawlings1757]

We were considering this resort but it was $150/night. wow!

[@LongLongHoneymoon]

We are currently staying at a MUCH cheaper RV place about a 15-minute drive away. We’re now paying $32 a night for full hookup! It’s not as nice as Fort Wilderness but we’ll save $700 over the course of a week! More info soon...

[@Sharon-pb7so]

Jim Samolczyk You haven't been there in close to 20 years? They've lost your business? I promise you Disney hasn't noticed your absence.

[@chipsoutherland7895]

Dear Sean and Kristy We are loyal Loloho watchers and, thanks in some measure to you two, are proud owners of an new 2017 Airstream 23fb Flying Cloud and Ford F-250 pickup! Thanks to your previous videos, upon purchasing our new 2017 Flying Cloud, we spent our first 3 nights at Fort Wilderness. It was a great place to break in the new rig. We have been back about 4 times since and in fact just missed you all by about a week. We were there just two weeks ago, staying in the 400 loop, also at a premium site (only type available). Dittos to all you said about Fort Wilderness! It is our favorite place to go, among some other really good places in Florida. We are planning on a first long, cross country trip to Utah, perhaps next summer. Thanks for a great series and very entertaining vignettes! Chip & Suzie Southerland

[@THECRAZIES06660]

We are heading to Fort Wilderness around January 3rd. Is that considered off season or should we make reservation's? I don't like making plans/reservations. I just like to end up wherever we end up. Having to be at a certain location at a certain time causes me stress. :) My specialty is getting very lost.

[@HayabusaOrlando]

The fact that he isn't a Theme park fan but he loved Fort wilderness sold me on it. I also am not a theme park guy. 👍🏼

[@billvegas8146]

We took the kids to Ft. Wilderness many years ago. We rented a permanently installed trailer. It was the cheapest way to stay in the park at that time. Plus we stopped for groceries and ate breakfast in the trailer. The park is massive so to save valuable ($$$) time we rented a golf cart to get around. The kids loved the cart. We loved commuting to the park on the boat. Tips for visiting the big parks. Be there when they open. Go LEFT and all the way to the biggest ride that is furthest from the entrance and then work your way back. Almost everyone goes right and stops at the first one or two biggest attractions. I stole these tips from The Unofficial Guide to Walt Disney World, THE guide book to get before you go. You should put a link for that book in your 'store.'

[@LongLongHoneymoon]

Thanks, great tips! Book is now added to our store! (Shameless plug: amzn.to/2nPqMNA) We actually have an older copy of the book and I agree it is great.

[@lorriedianne]

The cabins at Fort Winderness are amazing and they just refurbished them last year. That was my husband and my first experience at the Fort.

[@mspeachy3226]

[@1380beagle]

We did this when I was a kid (1987😬). We had a blast!

[@petes8849]

Have you ever encountered an electrical hookup that only had a 50 amp connector? My rig is the normal 30 amp and of course, we have an adapter to 15 amp. I was wondering if I need to carry a 50 amp adapter.

[@LongLongHoneymoon]

Yes, we always travel with a 50-to-30 "dogbone" adapter. (Shameless affiliate link: amzn.to/2BZ1d1D) We don't use it often, but it's a lifesaver when you need it! We used ours just a few weeks ago.

[@WCL31986]

Hi guys. I just bought a trailer last year and plan to hit the road this spring in earnest. We plan to bring our 13 y/o Boston Terrier and wanted to know what you do with your dog when you aren’t able to take him with you. Is he safe locked in the trailer??

[@LongLongHoneymoon]

Yes (assuming the temperatures are safe), but stay tuned, as we will SOON discuss this topic in much more detail!

[@WCL31986]

Long Long Honeymoon Clyde’s safety is paramount!! Looking forward to hear your experiences. LoLoHo! 🤟🏻

[@TheDmcd66]

Long Long Honeymoon thanks, I asked about this a couple weeks ago. Another video I saw recommended putting up a sign looking for a dog sitter when you set up camp - thinking this would be a good strategy?

[@SeriouslyCreepy]

Looks like a lot of fun there!!

[@wongthong7]

Disney should pay you guys for advertisement.

[@LongLongHoneymoon]

Haha I agree. However, instead they kicked us out on Saturday when we wanted to extend our stay! Unfortunately we don't really have any "inside connections" with Mickey. ;-)

[@dustintilden2691]

You are 10 minutes away from me I so wish I could meet y'all. Your videos are so fun to watch!

[@lorriblouiin1888]

We should all do a camp out in Michigan with campfires and air conditioning

[@kennethbruner2375]

Go out 429 N to Winter Garden, which is just north of the Magic Kingdom, , and there are a number of local stores and restaurants and a Publix which is great

[@cincycowboypete]

$100.00 a night sounds high, but if you consider what a room in one of the others Disney resorts would be, that is a huge bargain. Considering you get all of the same benefits, this is really a great price!

[@roydavis2242]

One KZbin family, "The Family Fulfillment Project", traveled there with 4 small kids but never went into the parks. Their kids had a blast. They travel on tight budget and didn't want to spend money on the parks when their kids aren't really old enough to remember much. Fewer people at night also means fewer kids, but the ones there may be tired/crabby.

[@LongLongHoneymoon]

Haha true about the crabby kids. Most of the youngest ones are already home in bed during the "Extra Magic Hours" though.

[@SecBarbie]

As a note - Between Christmas and New Years is already sold out for 2018/2019 - My Pro-Tip is to try for cancelations in late November. It's rough, but possible (I did it last year).

[@LongLongHoneymoon]

Thanks for the tip! We'd love to go in the late November / early December timeframe and see all the Christmas decorations.

[@VegActive]

[@rodhumphrey2213]

Hey even at $70-$100 a day, still a lot less expensive then a hotel/motel. That's a GREAT PRICE! Have a GREAT Time!

[@LongLongHoneymoon]

Yes, and when you have your own RV kitchen, you can save money on meals. It's still not a bad deal.

[@RayT70]

Thumbs up. The reason you don't have an insect problem is because they are going extinct.

[@miradonfbd]

Robert lol, I live in Florida. No chance of that! Always plenty of bugs.

[@enyoc3d]

expensive but still the cheapest way to stay on property and when you add in all the free stuff you can do it’s not bad at all. thanks for the great vid!

[@fernwehforevertearofjoy409]

I would never dream of giving you guys a 'thumbs down'....you don't do that kind of vlogging....you're always high-spirited (even in the worst of times) and helpful😊 Could you please repeat the info about the dump hose adapter; I would like to share it with a friend. THANKS for all! JOY! 💚

[@LongLongHoneymoon]

Thanks much! Here is the adapter that worked for us. Now we can buy Valterra sewer gear and it will fit our older Thetford attachment on our Airstream. This just attaches directly to our trailer. amzn.to/2EmyitJ

[@fernwehforevertearofjoy409]

If you're looking for wilderness....get your butts back up north to BC., Canada!! Our provincial parks are gorgeous!

[@r2bigbear]

My wife and I are currently here at Fort Wilderness Campground in the 1600 loop. This is our 3rd trip here since October of 2017. We enjoy the campground more then the other resorts and often spend more time around the campground than we do in the parks. We really enjoy your awesome videos. Keep them coming!!!!!

[@richardfernandez311]

Stayed at Fort Wilderness for 5 days in early October. Made reservations 60days in advance. The campsite was beautiful. I was amazed how clean it was kept. While we were there every time a RV left within 15min there was a crew that arrived and cleaned. To the point they power washed and blow dried the site before the next RV arrived ! WOW! I tried to come back Christmas week and was told I had to make reservations 18months to 2 years in advance. I think it was worth it. But not something I would do every year. That said I will go back again.( It was I in Oct.2016 )

[@jeffbranning144]

Love your review of Disney's Fort Wilderness!! The dog park is very nice! We love Fort Wilderness and the dog park since it's a larger dog park. We travel with three yellow labradors and they love playing in the dog park and our youngest lab, Joker, absolutely loves to go for rides in the golf cart. If we walk by a golf cart he wants to jump in it and go for a ride. ;-) The premium sites gives you a much larger site for those of us who have big 44+ ft Class A rigs. It's so quiet for the most part. The weekends get very busy. We've stayed at Fort Wilderness a number of times and never even gone to the park. Each loop has its own very nice bath houses or shares with a neighboring loop. We've also rented a golf cart during our stay which is really nice when it's hot and humid. You have to make reservations way in advance to be assured you get a spot. We've been trying to get in to Fort Wilderness in the winter of 2019 and haven't been able to get a site during the weeks we want to stay.

[@secret2videos]

Headed there - leaving tomorrow (Wednesday) and will be at Fort Wilderness Campground Monday. Looking forward to it!!!! Glad you took the time to show us what we can expect. Can't wait!!!

[@runningonempty398]

We love Disney....We went many times when we were FL residents and didn't even go into the parks..love the campground.

[@takayama1638]

Wow! A wild chihuahua! We spent a few days there in '98 when our Aeorlite was new. Seems not too expensive back then. It a great place. Yeah, food not so good at Disney.

[@TUBINYOUNOW]

Absolutely love staying here. We are season pass-holders from another state and stay here at least a couple weeks a year. The 800 loop is our favorite (also a pet loop). Hoop-Dee-Doo is a great dinner show in the campground. We find it so relaxing to be able to go to a park for half a day then return to our camper and make lunches or dinner, take naps and actually relax then return to a park for the night shows. So much better than being in the park for an entire day and having to pay for all the park food and returning to a cramped hotel room with your family exhausted. Definitely the best way to do Disney :) FYI...you may want to book out as soon as you can. We have had to book as early as 15 months to get in for Thanksgiving week.

[@janrobinsonus]

So glad you guys are around. I'm in the learning curve and you guys are definitely a huge help, I'm an avid tent and survivor camper but don't how anything works in my little trailer. What is an inverter, does it work automatically when I plug things in when boon docking. I bought an extra battery excited to see how everything works. Will cook on the cook top and not use the microwave for my first time out. i've learned so much from you guys, please keep posting. I'm traveling solo in a 2011 Chevy Traverse LTZ with factory tow package towing a 2015 Coleman 16FB, with my dog Blitz. I found this brand new trailer for $8,500. Now buying all the other stuff you have have to acquire to get the trailer on the road. I invested in a Hensley Cub Hitch, expensive but totally worth it. Absolutely no trailer sway even with high winds and huge trucks going by. I was traveling at 65mph, very happy about that and the Traverse pulled it very easily, just like a fith-wheel and i can even turn the trailer in a normal width road. . Have you tried one? you could contact Hensley, I'm sure they would lend you one. Hensley folks are awesome and talk you though the hitching and unhitching pocess until you get the hang of it. .

[@AllAboutTheBanks]

We mooch dock at my brother's house. I actually put in a 30 amp plug just for that. Love it!

We always enjoy the live chats, but this was kind of fun, having the chat interspersed with video from your stay there. Kind of like getting the best of both worlds, a live chat and a travel episode. Thanks! Where are you going next?

[@Ira88881]

$100 and change a night is still a big bargain. Consider that breakfast for four ANYWHERE in the parks or hotel is going to cost you at least $50 to $60, and that’s not even a good breakfast. The meal you can have in your RV, and the convenience of having it even before you get dressed, is not to be underestimated. Also consider you can hop back from the park to your site for lunch if you’re the type (I’m not), but for a late night dinner if you schedule your eating habits accordingly? Four steaks on the grill, maybe $40 for meat and $10 for sides. Comparable meal in a Disney establishment? 200 bucks. Disney makes it money on you spending this money in their food establishments, so if the price of Ft. Wilderness seems high, if you’re a family with kids, you have the suitable RV, and you schedule things right, the site MORE than pays for itself.

Stayed there for a week last November. We had 6 adults and 3 kids in our Roo and tent. 3 families worth for 90 some bucks a night. 3 hotel rooms a night was 10 times that per night to stay at one of the resort hotels. I would call that a SUPER good deal. Had a great time btw.

[@dreamages9838]

You can order groceries from Walmart and they will deliver to your camp site, I think it has a $50 min order.

[@LongLongHoneymoon]

Great tip! We will check that out.

[@jritts1]

You can also order from supermarkets like Safeway.When we signed up our first delivery was free. Don’t know if that’s still the case.

I have a picture of our 1972 Winnebago D24 Indian Motor home parked at a Fort Wilderness camp site...in 1972. The sites do not look much different now!

Long Long Honeymoon Fort Wilderness RV Campground video Very sweet, charming and informative. Brings back some great family memories! Last time our family stayed at DisneyWorld the kids were in 8th and 10th grade. We'd went several times in between as they grew-up. We're from Wis. and have done a lot of tent camping so as part of our Disney experience we spent some time checking out Ft. Wilderness. We walked through the rv area and talked with a retired couple who were spending a month there. The biggest memory for my wife and I was that we chose to come to DisneyWorld on our honeymoon! We knew we'd luxuriate in the warm weather, spotless grounds, lush landscaping, Royal Swan resort, night atmosphere, fine restaurants, inter-park transportation, fireworks, and yes, even the rides and attractions. A perfect no hassle, no stress opportunity to "just be". Thanks for sparking our treasured experiences.

That trail behind your camper is the remnants of the old steam train rail that circled the campground. The cliff notes version of the difference between standard, preferred, and premium sites; location and size of the concrete pad. Standard and preferred pads are shorter (and i think narrower), the remaining length of the site is coarse sand. We love Ft. Wilderness and will be there later this year. This video made us both anxious to get down there.

[@BanjoPicker]

Not true...there are several 5 Star campgrounds in the US. BUT Disney is the most fun for sure.

[@suzanneippolito8716]

We started taking our kids in our pop up 25 years ago. We're going in our new Van in the spring and definitely next Christmas. For those who have Disney Vacation Club (time share) the "points" are VERY reasonable! We've also stayed in cabins and have rented golf carts. Very worthwhile.

[@jackmcgonegal8728]

We used to stay at Fort Wilderness often when our kids were younger, using the Fleetwood trailers, which were a great deal in the 80s and 90s. Then they converted them to "Wilderness Cabins," which cost over $300 a night. Our children loved, loved, loved the Hoop-Dee-Doo Revue.

[@GOWHID5173]

Hey Shaun, how are you feeling? You look good. You both do, a good looking couple. Hope all is well.. =)

[@garygrell7020]

Next time in that area, check out Turkey Lake/Bill Fredric city park and also Lake Louisa state park. both are within a 20 mile radius from Disney parks. Parking at the Disney parks now cost $25/day.

[@donaldduke2233]

We stayed there a long long time ago, when it was affordable which it no longer is. Outstanding campground. Extremely expensive.

[@e.t.in3-d226]

RIVER COUNTRY not Tom Sawyer swimming hole :)

[@wilddaisy3902]

This Disney Park is also on the Disney Vacation Club program, so if you are a member, you can use your points to pay for the campground. That can equate to a month or more of stay depending on your points purchased. The only thing you need to pay for are things not covered (tickets, extra activities, food). We bought in when it first started decades ago and it has more than paid for itself in Disney stays in FL, Hilton Head, Cruises and also trading our points for locations all across the world. We even got married on the Disney Cruise in the Bahamas on DVC Pts. and took our extended family with us (parents, siblings and family) and all we paid was the wedding fee, alcohol, flowers and tip.

[@SuperEnthused]

I absolutely love Fort Wilderness, it's a whole experience in and of itself!

[@GMCMoto-ko5eo]

Just because adults don't have kids doesn't mean they won't enjoy Disney! Ugh!

[@debijeffries43]

We were just there in min January. So clean, loved the wildlife. It was great. Debi Jeffries

[@jackmcgonegal8728]

Our plan of attack whenever we visited was to hit whichever attraction was opening early that day. By around ten, when the park was getting crowded and miserably hot, we'd head back to Fort Wilderness. The kids would swim in one of the pools, and we'd have lunch. Later in the afternoon, we'd have an early supper. By now it's cooled off a bit, and the people who've been in the park all day are exhausted and their young children are screaming. That's when we'd return to one of the parks, usually the one that's staying opening late that day. And if I ever need to get information from a captured spy, I'll just make them go on the "Small World" until they crack. It would only take about one lap.

[@robertbarnhart7489]

Hi, enjoy your videos learned a lot. I have one question. I have a Jayco 30ft. trailer which I tow with my 2013 extended van. So with the trailer my length is at least 50ft. Is there any special area in the Fort Wilderness campground that I should try to get? I haven"t traveled too far with the trailer. We have a seasonal spot at a local campground. We live here in Ohio. The trailer is stored in a garage during the winter months. I and the wife are planing on going on more trips this summer since we both are retired. Hope to hear from you. Thanks, keep up the good work.

[@missdistress9176]

Kristy, in every video your hair is just a shampoo commercial... so perfect and gorgeous... What do you treat your hair with, do you get blowouts, or softeners... Or is it just good to honest dna? You're gorgeous! ... I want a video on just Kristy's beauty tips in that travel life.

[@penitashaylor782]

Hello! Good to see you looking so good! I live in Florida and I own a small RV rental business. We do a lot of business for Disney's RV park. Something I don't believe you mentioned...the RV park has an airport shuttle. I love meeting my renters at the park and setting up with them as we go through how to operate the RV. Or, I pick them up at the airport and go to the closest Walmart so they can do their shopping before they head to the park. If some of your viewers want to experience the RV life but don't have access to an RV, there are two sites to look for a rental...RVShare and Outdoorsy are two of the biggest. Happy RVing everyone!

[@tomkranauer929]

We used to go to River Country but they closed it because it is directly connected to the lake so they couldn't keep the bacteria count down or keep the water cloronated or keep creatures from the lake entering the water park. Disney makes more money with the two water parks they have currently. It was a blast while it was open. Also FYI, Disney does not give a discount for extended stays there which blows my mind when you talk to someone who stays a whole month for $150 a night. There are cheaper and really nice campgrounds with in 10-15 minute drive away. Also the bus sucks really bad because it stops every 5 minutes at ever bus stop. It took us over an hour to get to a park! Avoid at all cost. The pool was very ordinary and plain, nothing to look at and is over crowded except on cold days. We rode our bikes to Wilderness Lodge and used there pool which has a erupting water geyser.

[@sykesc2]

Thanks for being so persistent in getting the video up, and for all the info! We are headed to Camp Wilderness for the first time in July. Not an ideal time temp wise, but we have to go when work allows. Christmas week is currently booked solid except for a day or two for a tent or pop-up site. Happy trails!

[@100cakenurse]

We love Ft Wilderness. We have tent camped but also have rented a campsite and rented an RV from a local-to-Disney company. When we arrived, everything was set up and all we did was just move into the RV, We're still in the looking before buying stage so this has enabled us to see what size/type RV we want. The activities at the campground are great and the breakfast buffet at the restaurant is wonderful.

[@tnttroy]

Hi guys - I'm enjoying all your videos. I'm curious what you did with your pup when you were going into the parks? I've been to Disney a couple of times and see they have puppy daycare. Was wondering if you used their services.

[@MakingMotorhomeMemories]

FYI....... Disney raised its parking rate to $22.00 per day after the parks.

[@johnrenterprises2604]

A great video. My wife and I camped there in a tent many years ago (1976). The weather was fantastic and was not so hot! The park was great then and had a very different look. Trams went through the camp ground and took you to the transportation hub where you could take the boat or the train to the parks. One of our best ever vacations!

[@havfunwithit]

I stayed in Fort Wilderness for over two weeks last year. It’s very beautiful but expensive. I’m not so sure about the free parking in the parks. I had a season pass so I did get free parking. One tip you have to take two buses to go from your campsite to a park. I got to the parks faster by taking my car. Except for the Magic Kingdom which has a boat. I did wake up in the middle of the night because park workers were removing an alligator from the next site. So keep your little dogs away from the water. No I’m not kidding your not in Kansas anymore so keep away from the edge of water ways. Also there have been big rate increases.

[@standingpines]

Nice! I love Fort Wilderness. It is hard to heat fireworks from the beach. Now that the pandemic restrictions are easing up around Disney World, I look forward to visiting again soon.

[@OurNomadicStory]

We love Disney's Fort Wilderness. We spent our 30th wedding anniversary at Ft Wilderness last year.

[@mitchellquetant7161]

We just missed you guys at the Fort. The area behind your site was great to explore. You also found the old train tracks. We go to the Fort and sometimes not go to the Parks.

[@westvalley3111]

Thank you so much for the video and tips, it will help us alot when we go to Disney. Also love the picture :)

[@paulacox4875]

I have heard that with the premium sites at Fort Wilderness, a camper and a tent could be placed on the on the the same site. Is that true??? PS: I have ordered some stuff on your Amazon site and will also continue to order from Amazon through. you guys😊

[@rvninnorthcarolina3377]

We go there all the time. We generally stay in the 800 to 900 loops...these are a little older and the trees are mature...also pet loops :-) . Yeah....not cheap. Stayed there week before Christmas and it was 120 per night on the premium sites we were on. But if you like Disney and you are good with resort style camping this is the best. We go there and never go to the theme parks. Plenty of things to do in the area without getting into a park. Book this as soon as you can...we generally do it a year in advance. It is not always full...but generally it is full, so get your reservations as soon as you can!

[@chartle1]

I was there in 77 in a pop up and at that time you couldn't see your neighbors. I now know that all that jungle was evasive plants. A few years ago they cleared them all out. We paid around $20!!!!!! and had to reserve more than a year in advance. At the time we paid $3 for state parks and never reserved a site.

[@LisaMarli]

We've been snowed at when we stayed at Disneyworld. We are usually there Christmas and January. We've either stayed outside the park or the hotels. And yes to weekdays!

[@momotaro37]

Another fun video, and Sean I always appreciate a good Wookalar reference. :-D

[@UofLWoodwinder]

Would you guys please tell me what camera you are using to get those awesome night shots with? Those night videos on the boats in this post are so well focused and so well lit I just have to go out and buy that camera and lens! Thank you, great videos guys!

[@neverbyluck]

It was great to see you guys on our loop at the Fort last week. Those were my kids riding bikes in the video and our rig even made a few cameos in the B roll footage! The kids were very excited to see themselves on KZbin and are convinced they are famous. I hate that it didn’t work out for us to stop by and say hello in person at a time other than your active live stream, but glad I can at least comment and let you guys know how much I have enjoyed your videos since purchasing our first RV this past year. Lots of really helpful and down to earth advice, reviews and tips which have definitely helped me avoid learning a few lessons the hard way. Keep it up and thanks again!

[@kristymichael]

That's awesome! Hate that we missed meeting you guys. So happy to hear that you have found our videos helpful. We always tell folks to learn from our mistakes, lol!

[@Jrprez22]

River Country was Awesome. We took our kids when they were little, about 15 years ago. Glad we didn't die, lol!

[@robertdion6578]

Some families will never see or enjoy the chareters they loved growing up . Ya maybe parents should of paid attention in school but if they did who would build your homes or clean your pool ? It's aa shame.

[@AngelTorres-se9zf]

Love your videos LOLOHO, we always look forward to seeing new videos. Happy and safe travels.

[@kevincameron8437]

We love FW...just hate WDW is so expensive as a total cost...but def worth a trip every few years or so..

[@rvmush3883]

Disneyland used to have a beautiful campground too. Then they built the parking garage on that land. Sad it’s not there anymore. Really no good options close to the park 😟

[@DinnersMadeSimple]

We are staying there for Thanksgiving this year. We booked it in July 2017 when the timeframe opened at 499 days in advance. Our average price including taxes is $129 a night. So excited!

[@LongLongHoneymoon]

You'll love it. It's a beautiful place!

[@yankeesusa1]

They will now be building a resort at that old water park on the property. It will be part of fort Wilderness and will be part of the dvc, Disney vacation club
