    What is the latest time you can check in at camp wilderness?

    Welcome to planDisney, Elizabeth!

    Thanks for stopping by with your question about the Campsites at Disney's Fort Wilderness Resort. Your trip is nearly here, so let's hop to it! 

    The Campsites are such a fun place to stay when visiting Walt Disney World Resort. Guests can enjoy the beauty of the area with its Cyprus and pine forests, walking trails, multitude of activities such as horseback riding, archery, canoeing and more - there is never a dull moment! 

    I have great news for you, Elizabeth - there’s no official deadline for checking in at the Campsites! If you’re planning to arrive late, even after midnight, I recommend noting your estimated arrival time during online check-in. On past trips, my family has had some very late arrivals due to flight schedules, and everything went smoothly. We just made sure to include our arrival time in the My Disney Experience app so we weren’t marked as a no-show. It gave us peace of mind and made for a stress-free start to our stay!

    While you're enjoying the Campsites, don’t miss Chip 'n' Dale's Campfire Sing-A-Long - it’s one of my family’s favourite activities! My daughters have such a blast every time we go. If you’re in the mood for a sweet treat, you can bring your own marshmallows and roasting sticks or pick up a s’mores kit from the Chuckwagon Snack Bar. Chip and Dale will be there too, ready for photos and autographs. It’s such a fun and memorable way to end the day!

    I hope this information is helpful, Elizabeth. Have a wonderful stay at Fort Wilderness!

    See ya real soon,
    Candace
