Hi, Amanda!
Let's find something fun for your adventurous 12 year old son! Now Chip and Dale are fond of our wilderness friends so I cannot help you with hunting, but I can definitely lead you to some fun outdoor activities!
I think you will find so much to do at Fort Wilderness. I do not know if you have your lodging booked yet for your trip, but you can
stay at Fort Wilderness in a rented cabin or even pitch a tent! If you already have your resort booked, you can still head to Fort Wilderness to enjoy their activities. The
list of recreational activities never ends with canoe rentals, archery, horse back riding, and more! You can even stay into the evening and enjoy a campfire and a movie under the stars. (Your only restriction at Fort Wilderness will be the use of their pools unless you are a guest there.)
Some dining ideas:
-Hoop Dee Doo Musical Revue - Fort Wilderness
-Trail's End buffet - Fort Wilderness
-Whispering Canyon Cafe - Wilderness Lodge
I hope I gave you some ideas to start with! Look through the website at Fort Wilderness and see what you think. If you need more information on anything, just
drop me a note! Have fun planning a vacation of adventure for your son!
