Hello all,
My family and I are camping for the first time at Fort Wilderness the week after Easter (i know, its' going to be crazy. but we've been in DW over Christmas and weren't scared off) so i'm not too worried! lol
Anyway, this is all very new to us so I have a few questions if you don't mind?
1. Does it really take forever to travel to the different parks from the campground, I'm talking about the big 3 parks? Not sure if it's pertinent but we will be in a preffered site (i.e. loop 100-300).
2. I keep seeing everyone talk about watching the fireworks from the beach. What beach is it? Looking at a map i see at least two 3 bodies of water.
3. Along with question #2 is it a good place to watch the fireworks? I really prefer not to watch them in the park; my kids don't do well with lack of sleep and it's usually at least an hour from the park till you can get back to your room...or anywhere for that matter.
4. Do i need to make reservations for the campfire sing along? Or is it first come first serve?
5. I saw that there is fishing. Do i need to obtain an permit or license?
6. Is there a good amount of sandy beaches, space wise I mean? Can my kids swim/wade in the water?
7. Any cute ideas for decorating our campsite or travel trailer?
Thank you so much in advance for any answers. I'm a little bit of a control freak...lol and I just like to know what I'm walking into.
