    2026 Disney campground reservation, when are they opening I called and they could not give me an answer?? Thanks

    Welcome to planDisney, Maura! Thanks so much for coming to us with your question today. I'm so glad to hear you're thinking about a 2026 stay at Disney's Fort Wilderness Resort & Campground! It's such a unique and magical place to stay, with all of the original charm of the Vacation Kingdom of the World.

    As of right now, 2026 reservations haven't opened up just yet, which is why you're not seeing anything available and why Cast Members couldn't give you an exact date when you called. It's totally understandable to be eager, Fort Wilderness is such a special experience, and it does tend to book up quickly, especially during busier seasons!

    Based on past years, we typically see the next year's vacation packages and resort reservations open sometime between now and late spring or early summer. There's no set announcement date, but once they do open, you'll be able to book right on the Walt Disney World website, or by calling Disney Resort Hotel Reservations and Tickets if you prefer to chat with a Cast Member. 

    I highly recommend keeping an eye on the Disney Parks Blog, which is where you'll typically hear this type of announcement first. You can also check the Walt Disney World website every so often, just in case the calendar opens early, you never know when a little pixie dust might drop!

    I hope this answers your question, Maura, and please let us know if there's anything else we can do to help you plan your magical vacation.
