    Can you check in early to RV campsites at Fort Wilderness? If yes, what would be the earliest?

    Hi there, Cristina, and welcome to planDisney! I'm so happy you're here with this great question about your Walt Disney World Resort vacation! You must be so excited for your stay at The Campsites at Disney's Fort Wilderness Resort!

    Cristina, you'll be happy to know that check-in at Fort Wilderness is at 3:00 pm, and if you arrive early, a helpful Cast Member will be able to tell you if your campsite is ready. If it's not quite ready, they'll show you where you can go in the meantime. While researching this answer, I reached out to a helpful Cast Member named Bruno, who let me know that you'll be able to enjoy all of the benefits of being a Disney Resorts Collection hotel Guest on your day of check-in, even if your campsite isn't ready.

    Did you know that Guests of Disney Resorts Collection hotels are able to visit a Disney Water Park on their check-in day, included with their stay? My family recently took advantage of this benefit, since we were set to arrive a few hours before our 3:00 pm check-in. We had so much fun that, even when we got the notification that our room was ready, we weren't ready to leave!

    Cristina, I hope this is helpful to you! Please stop by planDisney with any other questions you have!

    Happily,
    Jennifer
