Did you know you could camp at Walt Disney World in Orlando, Florida? Not many people do! Fort Wilderness was one of Disney World\u2019s original lodging options. If you\u2019re considering a trip to Disney World, trying renting a camper van for a more affordable, unique, and magical Disney experience. Here are three reasons why you should give it a try.<\/p>\n
Seasoned campers might gawk at the price of a campsite at Fort Wilderness, but when you compare it to the cost of a value hotel room in the park, you can save a significant amount depending on the time of year you visit and the length of your stay. Plus, Fort Wilderness is a Disney resort so you have all the perks of lodging with Disney, like early reservations, FastPasses and Extra Magic Hours.<\/p>\n
Up to 10 people are allowed to stay at one campsite, which is perfect for larger families or groups of families looking to stay together. The \u201cTent or Pop-Up Campsite\u201d can accommodate one camper van and up to two tents!
\nWith a camper van, you can save money by cooking your own meals too. Each van has a two-burner stove, small fridge and a sink. Planning meals, eating at the campsite and packing lunches could make a trip to Disney much more affordable.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
The \u201cTent or Pop-Up Campsite\u201d is perfect for a camper van, has everything you could ever want in a campsite, and is the cheapest of the campsites at Fort Wilderness. Each site as a picnic table, charcoal grill, electrical hook up, water tap, and complimentary high-speed WiFi. Plus there is a \u201ccomfort station\u201d with restrooms, showers and sinks in every loop. The showers are pristinely clean. The entire campground is over 700 wooded acres, so you won\u2019t be on top of your neighbor or have to wait for a hot shower.<\/p>\n
Not only do you have a great campsite, but there two pools (one with a waterslide!), six restaurants, free parking for one vehicle and free transportation to the Magic Kingdom.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
During the day, you can rent a bicycle or golf cart, which is a great way to get to the boat to the Magic Kingdom if your campsite is farther away from the docks. If you plan to take a day off of the parks, there are horse back rides and dinner shows at the campground to keep you in the Disney spirit. Cinderella\u2019s horses are kept at the Tri-Circle-D Ranch in Fort Wilderness.<\/p>\n
Fort Wilderness also has many evening activities the kiddos will love. Chip N\u2019 Dale\u2019s Campfire Sing-A-Long is an opportunity to meet Chip and Dale without an expensive dining reservation and to see a classic Disney movie for free. Soak in the Magic Kingdom\u2019s fireworks from Clementine\u2019s Beach or see the Electrical Water Pageant. Fort Wilderness was one of the original lodging options at Disney world, so parents will enjoy Disney memories from the past too.<\/p>\n
