    Can we have guests while camping at fort wilderness?

    Hiya Sharon!

    Thank you so much for stopping by planDisney with your question! My family and I just returned from staying in the Cabins at Disney’s Fort Wilderness Resort, and I’m not even exaggerating when I say it felt like we were living in our own little woodland fairytale. Between the Chip ’n’ Dale Campfire Sing-A-Long, visiting the ponies at Tri-Circle-D Ranch, and hopping on a quick boat ride over to Magic Kingdom, it was pure Disney magic.

    So Sharon, let’s jump right into your question.  Guests are typically welcome to visit you while you’re staying on Disney property. It's just important to note that it is subject to availability. Last week, when we went, it was a very busy time of year; therefore, capacity was limited. To make things as smooth as a ride on the PeopleMover, I highly recommend adding your day guests to your reservation ahead of time and letting the Front Desk know you’re expecting them. Now, this is not mandatory, but I highly recommend it.

    When we were there last week, it was extremely busy. Cast Members asked us at check-in if we had any guests visiting, and if we did, to do just that. We had guests joining us for a fireworks cruise, and I stopped by the Front Desk beforehand to make sure everything was set. It made the whole process feel as easy as waving a magic wand!

    When your guests arrive, they’ll check in with security at the entrance. Here is where they’ll ask for your last name, campsite number, and a valid ID. From there, they’ll be directed to park up front, and you can swing by in your golf cart to pick them up.

    I hope you and your guests have the most magical time at Fort Wilderness! It truly is a hidden gem full of charm and adventure. If you have any more questions, feel free to stop by again!

    See you real soon,

    Christina
