Thank you for always including costs in your tours whenever you’re able to. So many RUclipsrs skip over that, and with everything constantly going up in price It’s great to have someone that will shoot us straight and tell us what things cost!
Finally, a thorough, detailed tour of Fort Wilderness specifically on what it’s like to be a tent camper ! This was so informative! Thank you Dev and Brian! Great video!
We rented a Trailer in Feb., came with a golf cart, it was wonderful! So beautiful and peaceful, ate at trails end, delicious, watched the fire works and water pagent,the pool was warm and fun, we would get off the bus after a long day at the parks, hopped right on our golf cart which was parked very close, a nice cool breezy ride back to our site,we loved it!
Used to camp in fort wilderness in the 1970s when I was a kid with my parents. What a difference in what it is today. Thanks for sharing all the different things to do and see. As well as the prices etc..
I too was there in the 70s. The tent sites were sand at the time which they raked often because of tire tracks. I still like sand better for ground camping. The wash house was air conditioned too! We flew down rented a car to get to the camp ground and turned it in. We caught the regular bus back. The campground was not prepared for someone without a car to checkout! We came inside and were told we had to go back outside and go through the drive through. When I protested that I thought it was dangerous standing between cars inhaling exhaust fumes, I was told to get back in my car! I asked if we could leave the footlocker and the duffle bag inside! She finally figured out the problem and let us check out inside. I remember there was transportation to the magic kingdom, by water. As well as the regular tram like vehicles that moved people around.
Camping in a tent in Florida in the summer is not for the faint of heart. At fort wilderness if camping in a tent November through February are the best months.
camped here in 2008! met chip and dale there and it’s one of my fondest memories from my childhood and this is one of my favorite disney resorts to stay in! the hotels are just not really giving that disney experience but the campsite is just so much fun, glad to see it’s not so different
I have an SUV tent from Napier and camped out this last February. I thought I would be the only idiot camping out in the cold and it gets down to 45-50 degrees at night, but there were tons of tent campers. The WiFi is great! I have cots, brought a heater, electric grill, cozy sleeping bags - comfort stations were impeccable - Gonna do it again. Plus, hardly anyone on the ferry at night. And people were swimming in February!!
Great place to go if you love the outdoors. Hoping they bring back Chip & Dale campfire sing a long. I enjoyed that. Yes, a golf cart is definitely the way to go
I can’t believe I missed you! I just left the Fort on Sunday. I was there for 3 weeks. I’ve been following your channel for a couple of years and was hoping to see you around Disney while I was there. You probably passed us (and my yellow lab Bennett) on the golf carts. Thanks for your great vlog Dev.
Good morning dev happy Monday morning and I just wanted to say that your thumbnails is amazing I'm proud of you and you are amazing Supporter my friend
I've tent camped in August (survival of the fittest time) and February (quite nice). Cabins in October for a half dozen years. When solo, I tent. When with the family, I cabin or cheat on Fort Wilderness by staying over at Caribbean Beach. FW is my absolute favorite. Thermocell for bugs at the site -- keeps you from having to be all DEET sticky all the time. Tent camping is second nature for me. Newbies might not have a great time doing this :)
Literally at MCO now about to fly home after our Disney vacation. First time it felt so different in a negative way. We hated Genie+. Even at 7am, the first LLs for Jungle Cruise were for times past 6pm. Bearing in mind a lot.of visitors will have jet lag for the first few days so early evening just isnt.doable but absolutely no morning slots. Buying Genie+ and then sitting on your phone from 06.55 am guarantees nothing. We travelled 4,500 and weren't able to get on JC, Tower of Terror or Pirates. We never faced this with Fast Passes and didnt have to spend an extra $90+ per day for fast passes like we did for G+. If you book your first LL at 7.00, by the time you can book your second there's very limited choice left. VERY limited. Disney's greed means we won't be coming back now after years of visits. Fact is - there's so much less on offer yet it costs so much more $$$$$$$
Hi from Toronto. My wife and I stayed in Fort wilderness in a 21 foot travel trailer way back in 1979 so it was interesting to see how it’s changed over the years. Of course there were no golf carts available then. Brings back memories.
Dude, this made my day. I went to WDW for the first in the Spring of 1972 around Easter. I spent my honeymoon, almost 34 years ago there. As a kid we always stayed at Fort Wilderness. My 28 year old son's first big vacation was in Fort Wilderness at Christmas time. We drove from Virginia over night and got there at 6am to check in. I still have a video somewhere of him running around in the check in office in his footy PJS. We have not been there since the 2005. Wow this brought back so many memories. Whispering Pines Way and Palmetto Path were our camping loops of choice. I want so bad to bring that 28 year olds family and the 26 years old daughter's family there to enjoy that place. As much as the upper management of Disney has gone so far away from Walt's original dream and gift, that place still seems like the magical place I remember. Thank you for this.
Camping? Oh I’m definitely tuned in!🔥 Thank you for another video Dev! I actually had plans to Vlog my stay at Fort Wilderness… but this video dropped JUST in time before I booked my stay!
We have done 2 trips to WDW. The 1st we did it big 5 nights 6 days thought we stayed at POP Century. Then we did a very quick simple camping trip of 1 day park and 2 nights tent camping. It was SO much cheaper and motivated us to come more often, so we got a fixer upper pop up camper. Sadly, then came Covid and we haven't been back yet but we plan on a trip soon. We LOVED the campground! It was quiet, lots of things to do, gave Disney magic for less money, and the boat trip to MK is the best way to travel.
Man this was awesome!!!! Man you had me dying laughing when you said you wasn't prepared to ride space mountain when you guys went off road!!!!! Thanks for another great video big brother!!!!
We stayed in the cabins in November and loved it. We weren’t able to reserve a golf cart but it was a short walk to the bus stop. Loved the boat over to Magic Kingdom!! Ready to go back!!
We love the campgrounds. We rent a cabin and it is great for a larger size family. We never get the golf cart though to save on money and we have never had issues. There is a private ferry to take you to magic Kingdom but all the other parks you need to take the busses. It's a unique experience on Disney property.
Great video Dev, you showed other features and food places plus items I haven't seen in other Fort Wilderness videos. 🧡🌺 Thank you very much, and thank you to your friend for sharing as well.
Such a relaxing resort! The horse back riding alone is something my Family would Enjoy, that and fishing! After awhile it’s great to unplug from technology and enjoy God’s creations in peace. ❤️ 🏊🏼♀️ 🎣 🐎 ⛳️ 🚙 🏕 🥘 🏬 💚
Camping in Fort Wilderness with my mom as a kid was one of our favorite things to do!! We also...really enjoyed River Country, watching the water parade, the campfire program, and Hoop De Doo!!! :)
I’m with you….we have stayed twice in the cabins and will be there again in June plus will be staying again at Halloween for the party at MK….it is so wonderful staying there. You feel like being in another Disney park because of all the wild life and activities going n. So worth the price. The golf cart is a must!
Love camping Dev! Only thing about RV’s they need to be stored somewhere and can cost as much as a house! Many are just so cool! Enjoy all your videos especially the diversity! Love Disney, but enjoy all the other events, parks and locations you travel to! Keep up the good work!
We stayed in a cabin a few years ago-rented golf cart from outside vendor (had a rental before and after ours so just left keys in cart). It was SO FUN it was difficult to get motivation to get to parks. The boat ride to MK or resorts was AWESOME though and the boat captains (used to anyway) time rides around MK fireworks-like having a private charter but better as was already included in price.
Just wanted to mention, this was 3rd week of may. It's the last few weeks of the dry season before the overnight temps are too high to tent camp. Very hot afternoons but chilly comfy overnights. I don't recommend May to October for someone new to tent camping but it's very easy to find air conditioning or ways to cool off if you get a few toasty afternoons.
I loved this review! I haven’t seen a review that did is greater job covering all the different options you have at Fort Wilderness. I’ve always wanted to stay there, but could never really get a ton of information about it. Thank you!
Very nice informative video, I think you covered everything anyone would need to know if they were going to stay there. Thanks for another great video 😊!
Overall similar, some expansion of more sites but some areas like the swamp trails and trains are gone. Group camping is now a picnic area but was closed while there.
Backside of pool...Is that like backside of water? 🤣 How much do prices change through the year? Cool! Can see the fireworks plus planet alignment on the right!
During Halloween last year, the food trucks were there all week. I had pizza cones 5 or 6 times. I was not unhappy & I’m craving one now after watching this. 🤤🤤 Also I am 6’4” 350lbs & 47 years old. Since 2018 I have tent camped at the fort in June, July, August, & September many, many times. Is it hot? Yep. Will you got exhausted & sweaty especially setting your site up? Yep. Is it super fun & rewarding? OH HELL YEAH!! 🤣🤣
Sorry for all my comments haha, last one.... I stayed 1 night in a cabin few years ago. It was very nice, but it felt cramped when sleeping. The one bedroom had a full bed and bunk beds that's a small space for 4 people to sleep in lol
I've stayed at various Disneyworld resorts but have yet to do the camping thing. I am very interested in doing this, thanks for providing a look around the site.
We used to camp at Fort Wilderness many times back in the late 70's -early 80's and it was awesome. They also used to have the Ft. Wilderness Rail Road which traveled around the camp ground, it's a shame they did away with it as it was fun to ride it as a kid. River Country was a fun water park that existed back then also. Btw that DVC resort "Reflections" construction site was the actual site of River Country. Sadly they have cancelled the construction of Reflections.
Love Fort Wilderness Resort but don’t go in November the week of the Disney Run, I went in November 3rd through the 10th camping loop 2069, woke up at 2am from testing the speaker, testing, testing, what the hay!
Avoid anything below 4000ft or south of Chicago in the summer without a plug in and an air conditioner. Have a home built Promaster, got a portable AC and made a window adapter for the exhaust tube for Disney camping the first few days of May and I needed it. The tent camp sight have electric and water, they are nice sights, warning the carts almost cost as much as the sight and the bus isn't bad. Personally I would not go to the parks June, July, August and the hell on earth 100+ and humidity experience. At $100 a night it is a nice spot on a Florida/Orlando trip, you could go to the free area or go to other attractions. At night take the boat, bus, monorail for the night shows that are visible from outside, if you are into camping it is a nice place to stay to do things around Orlando. The Magic kingdom show is visible from the doc area and Epcot show is visible from the pond by the Dolphine.

You can also contract with an outside company, Disney approved that will deliver a rented RV your camp site and pick up when your trip is over
We bought a camper 2 years ago and now The Fort is our home resort. So much to do and the golf carts are so much fun. We love it!
GREAT VIDEO Man'.... I COULD LIVE THERE....And be REAL HAPPY!!!!!!
When I was younger we used to go to Fort Wilderness, used to visit to go to the pool and when we were on vacation ride the bikes. It was so great.
We will be at Fort Wilderness in 2 1/2 months. Third trip. It is definitely a unique camping experience.
Camping at ft wilderness is perfect during cooler months…
Absolutely!!
First trip to Disney in 1975 the family stayed at Fort Wilderness. Start of my love of Disney!
Used to camp in fort wilderness in the 1970s when I was a kid with my parents.
What a difference in what it is today.
Thanks for sharing all the different things to do and see. As well as the prices etc..
I sometimes wish I could see what Disney World was like in the early days with my own eyes. Thank you for watching Ronald!
I too was there in the 70s. The tent sites were sand at the time which they raked often because of tire tracks. I still like sand better for ground camping. The wash house was air conditioned too!

I'm staying in the cabins next month, I can't wait, I love the cabins, I would never camp there too hot and too many bugs but I love the cabins.
The cabins are fantastic! Enjoy your stay.
Yes, way too hot in the summer to tent it for me , but really want to try the cabins! Thanks Dev !
What a beautiful place to stay. Thank you dev for these amazing video!!!!
This video is done perfectly, I'd love to stay here from the video alone. Subscribed!
We have camped at Fort Wilderness twice. Fantastic campground.
Camping in a tent in Florida in the summer is not for the faint of heart. At fort wilderness if camping in a tent November through February are the best months.
My family camped there in our RV twice, Christmas week 1994 and June 1997. Best campground ever.
I like how it seems more relaxed and laid back there.
Your speaking voice is fabulous my friend! If you aren’t in broadcasting you could be for sure. Great video and thanks for posting.

Brings back memories! Our family camped there in the 90s. SO fun.
Thank you Brian for inviting us to your campsite. Thank you for all the tips and tricks.

We stayed in a cabin rented golf cart. Love that place . Buses took to long Horses. Wow Thanks for your tour. Def been updated since we were there
Great place to go if you love the outdoors. Hoping they bring back Chip & Dale campfire sing a long. I enjoyed that.
Yes, a golf cart is definitely the way to go
As always great informational video Dev
Thank you so much Joanna!
Hey Dev, I really enjoyed this video, thank you!
Of course, thank you for watching Spencer!
Great video, never would of thought of camping at Disney ,sound fun.
Always love watching your videos!
Thank you so much Lisa!
We are staying at the Cabins at fort wilderness June 8-15!!! Love your videos you are the best! :)
Have so much fun!!

Thank you giving us a great tour of the property. It looks like it would be a lot of fun to camp there, especially during the holidays!
Thanks for this video. I get to see a part of WDW I probably will never go over to, but it’s fun nevertheless!
Great video bro. I’m digging the timestamps as well. Appreciate you. 😎
I grew up camping at Fort Wilderness until my parents bought dvc back in the 90’s. Super fond memories of camping in our pop up. Thanks Dev!
We were there from Apr 24 to May 1st and our grandkids fished and did the gem mining. We LOVE staying in Fort Wilderness!
We have stayed here, in our RV, several times. Thank you for doing a review! Great Place to RV!
No one had done a good review of FW- until you.
Hi from Toronto. My wife and I stayed in Fort wilderness in a 21 foot travel trailer way back in 1979 so it was interesting to see how it’s changed over the years. Of course there were no golf carts available then. Brings back memories.
I can't imagine being in a tent in that humidity. Definitely a better Winter choice!

Pizza Cone with "PC" on their logo.... perfect for you, Dev! 😊
Camping? Oh I’m definitely tuned in!🔥 Thank you for another video Dev! I actually had plans to Vlog my stay at Fort Wilderness… but this video dropped JUST in time before I booked my stay!
I'm finally over here Dev! Me and my family are always looking for you out and about the parks 🤣
Welcome!! I’ll be around the parks a lot this week. Be on the lookout. Have fun!
We have done 2 trips to WDW. The 1st we did it big 5 nights 6 days thought we stayed at POP Century. Then we did a very quick simple camping trip of 1 day park and 2 nights tent camping.

So fun to see you reminisce! Glad to see you enjoying the park in ways that most people wouldn't. Very insightful and helpful.
Thank you so much for watching Dave!
A really great detailed tour of the facility there. Thanks for that. And a great speaking voice too. Nice work.
Excellent, thanks so much for detailed information.
Love all the Vlogs but what impresses me is your in depth information and your honest advice Thankyou Dev
Man this was awesome!!!! Man you had me dying laughing when you said you wasn't prepared to ride space mountain when you guys went off road!!!!! Thanks for another great video big brother!!!!
We stayed in the cabins in November and loved it. We weren’t able to reserve a golf cart but it was a short walk to the bus stop. Loved the boat over to Magic Kingdom!! Ready to go back!!
Great video! It’s hard to find Fort Wilderness videos. Looks like a great time!
Just adding another Disney thing to do for my bucket list!! Another awesome informative video, thanks Dev
It was hot enough there in December. I’d never even attempt to go there in the summer. Great video.
We love the campgrounds. We rent a cabin and it is great for a larger size family. We never get the golf cart though to save on money and we have never had issues. There is a private ferry to take you to magic Kingdom but all the other parks you need to take the busses. It's a unique experience on Disney property.
That’s my cart at 30:40! Glad you like it!
Thank you Dev
Great video Dev, you showed other features and food places plus items I haven't seen in other Fort Wilderness videos. 🧡🌺
Thank you very much, and thank you to your friend for sharing as well.
Such a relaxing resort! The horse back riding alone is something my Family would
Enjoy, that and fishing!
After awhile it’s great to unplug from technology and enjoy God’s creations in peace.

Camping in Fort Wilderness with my mom as a kid was one of our favorite things to do!! We also...really enjoyed River Country, watching the water parade, the campfire program, and Hoop De Doo!!! :)
Even though I am able to get there every 3 months I still enjoyed watching this ! 😂
I’m with you….we have stayed twice in the cabins and will be there again in June plus will be staying again at Halloween for the party at MK….it is so wonderful staying there. You feel like being in another Disney park because of all the wild life and activities going n. So worth the price. The golf cart is a must!
That pizza cone looks good!
HEYY Dev I enjoy your videos and I can’t wait to visit Orlando again Tell Bianca I said Hello as well 💕💕
Very informative. Thank you!
Love camping Dev! Only thing about RV’s they need to be stored somewhere and can cost as much as a house! Many are just so cool! Enjoy all your videos especially the diversity! Love Disney, but enjoy all the other events, parks and locations you travel to! Keep up the good work!
Highly recommend the RV idea. Lived in one for four years till we found our place in the country. Hubby fell Ill and had to sell it. Lord I miss my RV
We stayed in a cabin a few years ago-rented golf cart from outside vendor (had a rental before and after ours so just left keys in cart). It was SO FUN it was difficult to get motivation to get to parks. The boat ride to MK or resorts was AWESOME though and the boat captains (used to anyway) time rides around MK fireworks-like having a private charter but better as was already included in price.
Stayed in that loop on our honeymoon in 1999. My favorite place
Yes please camp there! We love your informative videos!! We just camped at Wekiva and swam at Kelly Rock, definitely want to camp there!
Wow Looks like an incredible place! Thank you Dev and to your friend for sharing 👍
FINALLY DEV my husband and I was talking about this ask him what time of the year he suggest
The best time for a stay at Fort Wilderness is fall time during the Halloween season or even in November- January Natisha.
Just wanted to mention, this was 3rd week of may. It's the last few weeks of the dry season before the overnight temps are too high to tent camp. Very hot afternoons but chilly comfy overnights. I don't recommend May to October for someone new to tent camping but it's very easy to find air conditioning or ways to cool off if you get a few toasty afternoons.
Thanks for the video. This is one part of Disney property I have not seen.
I loved this review! I haven’t seen a review that did is greater job covering all the different options you have at Fort Wilderness. I’ve always wanted to stay there, but could never really get a ton of information about it. Thank you!
Man, that was some great information, that's one place on my bucket list. I have a travel trailer, and that's one place I wanna go too
Hi Dev watched the video and enjoyed it. Also the emoji you add in the video while looking at the horses int eh stable lol
The BEST campground!!
Very nice informative video, I think you covered everything anyone would need to know if they were going to stay there. Thanks for another great video 😊!
Thanks for the detailed review. Best 1 I've seen! Going in January and this helped a ton.
Thank's for the memories
Thanks for the tour; I haven’t been to Fort Wilderness since the 80s as a kid. Looks like a lot has changed!
Overall similar, some expansion of more sites but some areas like the swamp trails and trains are gone. Group camping is now a picnic area but was closed while there.
Backside of pool...Is that like backside of water? 🤣
How much do prices change through the year?
Cool! Can see the fireworks plus planet alignment on the right!
Do the carriage ride during Christmas or Halloween to ride through all the decor at the sites!
Did the horseback riding and it was fun!!
Brilliant video Dev, would love to stay here, looks beautiful 😍
During Halloween last year, the food trucks were there all week. I had pizza cones 5 or 6 times. I was not unhappy & I’m craving one now after watching this. 🤤🤤 Also I am 6’4” 350lbs & 47 years old. Since 2018 I have tent camped at the fort in June, July, August, & September many, many times. Is it hot? Yep. Will you got exhausted & sweaty especially setting your site up? Yep. Is it super fun & rewarding? OH HELL YEAH!! 🤣🤣
Sorry for all my comments haha, last one.... I stayed 1 night in a cabin few years ago. It was very nice, but it felt cramped when sleeping. The one bedroom had a full bed and bunk beds that's a small space for 4 people to sleep in lol
I've stayed at various Disneyworld resorts but have yet to do the camping thing. I am very interested in doing this, thanks for providing a look around the site.
Thank you so much for the tour and overview. As a West Coaster this is something I've never known anything about - it looks SO nice!

Dev is the best watching from Austin Texas love u dev and bianca
Love Fort Wilderness Resort but don’t go in November the week of the Disney Run, I went in November 3rd through the 10th camping loop 2069, woke up at 2am from testing the speaker, testing, testing, what the hay!
Best video I’ve seen of Fort Wilderness. Thanks Dev. Looks like a lot of fun staying there .
I really appreciate this comment C K!
Great Vlog, but when it comes to camping the wife, and son said nope. But for me I’m okay with it.😂😂😂
From what I understand Reflections is on indefinite hold since the Pandemic. They did all the demolition and then stopped. Left a mess.
Never even knew the Circle D Ranch existed... will have to check it out when I go in the summer.
Avoid anything below 4000ft or south of Chicago in the summer without a plug in and an air conditioner. Have a home built Promaster, got a portable AC and made a window adapter for the exhaust tube for Disney camping the first few days of May and I needed it. The tent camp sight have electric and water, they are nice sights, warning the carts almost cost as much as the sight and the bus isn't bad. Personally I would not go to the parks June, July, August and the hell on earth 100+ and humidity experience. At $100 a night it is a nice spot on a Florida/Orlando trip, you could go to the free area or go to other attractions. At night take the boat, bus, monorail for the night shows that are visible from outside, if you are into camping it is a nice place to stay to do things around Orlando.
