You Ought To Think About Camping At Disney World In Sunny Florida
Some children are obsessed with the idea of camping. They want to sleep under the stars, fight off wild animals by starting a fire, and generally “rough it”. Parents who may not share this enthusiasm for camping often try to distract their children by allowing them to “camp” in the backyard or sleep over at a friend’s house instead. However consider camping at Disney World as an alternative!
Now there is another option: a safe, modern camping environment at Disney World. Disney’s Fort Wilderness Resort offers campsites just ten miles from the Magic Kingdom, complete with water canals, ducks, deer, and rabbits, and forest trails. Unlike traditional campsites, Disney also offers cable television, air conditioning, and even high speed Internet. Pets are allowed in some parts of the campgrounds.
Disney Fort Wilderness offers plenty for the entire family to do during the camping experience. You can go hiking on a forest trail or fish and swim in one of the many water canals on the campgrounds. You can also take your kids on a horse and wagon ride or to the archery range. In addition, every evening, you can watch a Disney movie under the stars in an outdoor arena. There are hook-ups for tents and RV’s, and log-cabin style buildings dot the premises.
Finally, the outdoor atmosphere at Disney is beautiful. The campsites are situated in a forest full of pine and cypress trees and there are log cabins or other rustic-looking buildings on site. Best of all, camping at Disney World is not expensive; you can rent your campsite for as little as $43 per night plus tax. Camping at Disney is also safer than camping at a traditional campsite. There are no dangerous wild animals at Fort Wilderness Resort.
If your children are camping purists, they might object to the Disney campsites because you have modern conveniences such as electricity and water. However, there is so much to do on the campgrounds that they will probably completely forget about this issue. On the other hand, if you get tired of camping, Disney offers complimentary transportation for resort guests to each of its theme parks.
You can also visit two golf courses and other Disney World Resort Hotels. Several of the parks are also accessible via walking trails, and if you want to see the Magic Kingdom, you can take a boat ride. Plus, Disney Fort Wilderness offers horse and wagon rides, bike rentals, swimming, fishing, archery, and even an outdoor movie every night.
If you have a dog, you can bring him or her to selected areas of the campsite. Your dog will enjoy walking through the campgrounds and will have an air-conditioned place to sleep. Cats are presumably also welcome on the campsite, although most cats are not leash trained so this may not be a good idea.
In short, if you are looking for a camping experience to complement your vacation, Disney’s Fort Wilderness Resort may be the place for you and your family. You can experience camping with modern conveniences, explore Disney World, and find plenty to do on your vacation.
