First timer RV family and this will be our first trip. So glad I clicked on this video!! Thank you so much for information. I will try to get a reservation for 2021 or 2022.
Dunno if anyone gives a damn but if you're stoned like me atm you can watch all of the new movies and series on instaflixxer. I've been watching with my brother for the last few months :)
Great video. Glad I found this. As Jeremy mentioned near the end, the kids definitely do expect it. Our first Fort trip was in 2006. The second in January, 2008 with annual passes. About two months after that 2008 trip, we sold the camper since we were building our new house that summer. So with APs, we did the Contemporary in June and Port Orleans FQ in August. At the end of the August trip, our two sons said they'd had a great time but they'd rather come back the next time after we got our next camper so we could stay at the Fort.
This was great! Love your Disney mugs! I am working my way toward campground hopping in the colder months and Fort Wilderness is top on my list of campgrounds. Love seeing other campers from there! :)
Nice video. We are Florida residents and annual passholders and own a 38 foot class A. We stay at "The Fort" 3-4 time a year. I can not emphasize enough there there is no comparison staying at "The Fort" as opposed to any other commercial RV park in the area. You are correct that it is a resort. How many RV parks have a street sweeper twice a day? We very rarely stay in a premium site. We usually stay in a what they call a full hook site and that is just perfect. We also find that 2nd, 3rd, and 4th week of August to cheaper. You are correct about looping, especially near Halloween and Christmas. We have come across many friends and relatives who never bothered to go to the Hoop-de-doo revue. It is one of only dinner shows at "The World" and a fabulous take. When at "The Fort" visit the new multi million dollar Tri-Circle-D Ranch behind Trails End. You can get close and personal to 2000 lb. Draft Horses used at the parks. We usually stay 7 nights and only go the parks 4 days
Loving the new videos guys! We were driving back from Lancaster today while listening to one of the old episodes of the podcast to refresh our minds as we are planning to visit the Niagara Falls next summer. We hope you had a great thanksgiving!
Loved all your tips... Except that Disney is ripping people off now on golf carts and they prevent any company from even pulling into the parking lot. And this year Disney raised the rate to over $65 a day for the rental of the golf cart. My suggestion if you plan accordingly is to use teetime rental off property which meets you right outside Disney property and you can drive their truck to bring their rental golf cart with their truck and then take it back or use your own truck with their trailer. It ends up being about 35 a day depending on how long you rent it. Definitely worth it
380 a night is not a good deal unless you really want to camp at fort Wilderness. You can just go to the dvc rental store and stay at animal kingdom Lodge for a lower amount.
@@stephanieandjeremypuglisi3278 that is very true. For a family of 5 or more pricing does go up and then the campsite will be a better option. I was referring to a family of 4. It's expected that the bigger the family the bigger the costs.
$380 are you flipping crazy. You can stay at just about any moderate resort for less that. You mentioned the golf cart too. So your real amount is closer to $450 per night before tickets and food. A fool and his money is soon parted
Jerry Gundrum The RV we rented was 38 ft long and could easily sleep 8 people without sharing beds. A moderate or deluxe hotel means kids sharing beds and less comfortable space. The RV also has a full kitchen so we brought groceries and cooked 2 meals a day. This easily saves us 150 to 200 dollars a day-because if we were staying in a hotel room we would be eating out every meal. Lastly, the size of our site at Fort Wilderness is about 4-5 times the size of a hotel room. So we can have campfires at night, eat our home cooked meals outside, and play a game of catch or checkers on our private space at Disney. We weren’t presenting renting an RV and getting a site at Disney as a budget option-but as a different option if you don’t like staying at hotels. A fool and his opinions ARE soon parted.
@@stephanieandjeremypuglisi3278 what ever you need to think to yourself to justify it. A fool and his money are soon parted. Ya I am laughing at you, what a waste of money
Jerry Gundrum , Me Too! Since it opened! I just did the math today for a trip September 2020. If you have your own camper, it is $900 less to camp than for a party of 2! To stay at pop century for a week. I don’t know where this idea that value hotels are less than camping began but it has Never, Never, Never been true, and you do yourself and others a disservice by repeating lies and rumours.

Can’t wait to visit the Fort next year!
Nathan and Jill We are heading back in November!!! Very excited!
Awesome information! Thank you! So excited to go this year
Can't wait!! We will be there 3rd week of January. First timer.. we are so excited

Stephanie DeWitt Thanks so much for watching!
Love the Disney mugs!!! Nice touch :). I now want to go to Disney next year. HAHA. Thank you! - Shire
Reinvented Home Movies Thanks for watching! Flying and renting is a pretty darn good option. Or renting a cabin at the Fort.

RV East Coast Thanks so much for watching! Niagara is terrific!
Don’t forget Trails End also has a pretty good takeout menu if you want to eat back at your campsite and don’t want to cook!
Shawn Berg Good tip! We love hanging there so much we never do takeout. It’s such a relaxed chill environment there!
Great tips!
Johann Schnell Thanks for watching Johann!
Nobody knows what you will be doing in 199 days from now, make a guess!
Sitting inside quarantine for 199 days
😫😫😫😫😫😫
love hoop-dee-doo!
great video. we go 3-5 times a year. maybe we’ll see you in January!
John Coyne Thanks for watching! We love the Fort so much!
We love the FORT too :) Hey we seen you in January and had a great time !! Say hi to Jennifer for us !

No, they are not over $65 a day. They are $62 and change per day. I was just checking them out earlier today on the WDW website.
Floridafanatic28 that’s still way too expensive. $30-35 is reasonable.
What’s the weather usually like when y’all go in January?
Are private golf carts allowed?
Make sure to ride the train at the campground! (Oh )
The train is gone now. It's been gone for several years.
I really liked your information. However, the delivery would be better if you didn't continually interrupt each other.
380 a night is not a good deal unless you really want to camp at fort Wilderness. You can just go to the dvc rental store and stay at animal kingdom Lodge for a lower amount.
Jaz In a room that can sleep 8-10 people like our RV rental could? Plus a huge amount of outdoor space included?
@@stephanieandjeremypuglisi3278 that is very true. For a family of 5 or more pricing does go up and then the campsite will be a better option. I was referring to a family of 4. It's expected that the bigger the family the bigger the costs.
Call 499 days in advance website is 365 days

Jerry Gundrum I’m going to down vote your comment because you are obviously clueless. Been staying there since 74.
@@Onizukachan915 we have been going to Disney since the early 70s and you can stay at most moderates and and value resorts for much less money
