Hi!

We're staying in a FW cabin for 1 night in December - NOT a camping family, but I've booked a cabin for 1 night before our DVC stay at the boardwalk. This has always been my dream and my family does not know I've booked this 1 night in a cabin - what are the must to do's for a camping newbie and FW newbie, but WDW vet (ove 50+ trips). We have previously rented bikes and 1 time a cart to see the loop holiday decorations and had the buffets, but besides that what else can we do? What is this "otter"?

what are the "must" brings just for 1 night (Dec. 20th), and how can we get the most out of our stay (e.g. flashlight, xtra blankets?,smore ingredients?, must do/see and helpful hints since we are not "outdoorsy" family type and might be a strange at night. I know this sounds funny- but are there animals we should be on the look out for especially at night :rolleyes: ? Not anything dangerous I know, but that might just be around outside. BTW, I'm thinking of reserving a cart again, or just bikes which I think we actually prefer.

Thanks in advance for everyone's help!

1 large bottle of crown, everything else will just fall into place.

With older kids, I might try horse back riding. Although my Step Daughter would have loved the camp fire program even as a teen.
