Hey, howdy, hey, Rachel!
Welcome back to planDisney! I'm SO excited for your trip to The Most Magical Place on Earth! YEEHAW! Your stay at
Fort Wilderness is going to be unforgettable, especially because you'll be staying at one of the new cabins! This is on my Disney bucket list -- I'm so thrilled for you!
Since you're wanting to request a cabin near the water (excellent choice, by the way), I would recommend calling a Cast Member as soon as you can. You'll want to call a Cast Member who specializes in
Disney Resort Hotel Reservations specifically, Rachel. When you call, have your hotel reservation information ready to go as the Cast Member will need your confirmation number to make a note on your reservation. Your request will be noted, but please keep in mind that requests are not guaranteed and are based on availability. You should know, though, that Cast Members will do everything they can to make your dreams come true! You should make this call and request as soon as you have time to do so!
I second what my pal, Candance, told you about
Chip 'n' Dale's Campfire Sing-A-Long! You should definitely spend some time with these cuddly chipmunk pals if you have a free evening.
If you have any additional questions before your trip, Rachel, we hope to hear from you again at planDisney! We're just a dream away.
Happy trails,
Allyn
