    We will be staying in the cabins at Fort wilderness in September and have two small dogs. It is $50 a night per cabin or is it $50 a night per dog thank you.

    Hey howdy hey Rickey, and welcome back to planDisney! I’m always a little sad to leave my dog at home when I travel to Disney World, so bringing your pups along for the ride sounds extra magical!

    The pet fee at the Cabins at Fort Wilderness is currently $50 plus tax per night (not per dog). A few years ago, I stayed at the cabins with my friend and her two pups. It was so much fun to return from a day in the parks and see their happy faces! We’d often mobile order dinner from Trail’s End and bring it back to our cabin to eat with them on the deck.

    If your pups are craving a little more room to run, be sure to visit the Waggin’ Trails Dog Park near campground loops 300 and 500. This fenced area is open from dawn to dusk, and it’s a fun spot for your pups to play with other dogs at the campground. It’s a bit of a trek from some of the cabins, so you may want to rent a golf cart for your stay. Otherwise, you can bring your pups on the internal buses at Fort Wilderness as long as they’re in a crate.

    Now only service dogs are allowed in the theme parks, but there’s a special souvenir that will let your pups know you were thinking of them! In Magic Kingdom, you’ll find silhouette artists who can create a hand-cut portrait of your dog from a photo! I had one made of my pup, Scuttle, that’s one of my most cherished Disney World keepsakes. There are two silhouette carts in Magic Kingdom–one in the alleyway off Main Street, U.S.A., just outside Uptown Jewelers, and another in Liberty Square near Ye Olde Christmas Shoppe. These talented artists cut the portraits right before your eyes in about 10 minutes–it’s pure Disney magic! 

    As you prep for your trip, you might find these Fort Wilderness dog policies helpful to read. I hope you and your pups have a pixie-dusted vacation! And don’t forget, you always have a friend in me at planDisney. If you have any other questions, don’t hesitate to ask!
