Chip n Dale Campfire for Off Peroperty Guests?

If I'd known my question, that had absolutely nothing whatsoever to do with camping, would get moved to the "Camping at Disney World" forum, and if I'd known that an incredibly rude and bitter group of campers would attack me on that forum, because of some battle they are in to retain control of and somehow prevent too many people from using their campground, and continue to attack long after I settled my differences and left the thread, I would have never posted this question in the first place.

I have learned my lesson, and will never again, NEVER post anything that could somehow end up on the Camping at DW forum. People from my side of the DIS would be absolutely SHOCKED to learn there is a place so mean spirited as the Camping at DW forum. I have certainly learned my lesson.

yes you can - we went in May and at no time during our travels to and from the campfire or while at the campfire did anyone ask us where we were staying. Unfortunately for us a thunderstorm came through and cut our evening short, but we did get to roast marshmellows - yummy.

I believe if you check the camping thread you can find additional info on how to get there using disney transportation. We left from the MK by boat and returned to the MK by bus.

Found this

Chip & Dale's Campfire Sing-A-Long is held nightly at the Meadow Trading Post and begins with a 7:30 fire lighting (weather permitting). It features a sing-along, Disney movies and cartoons. Marshmallows can be toasted over the campfires. You can bring your own or buy them there. The Chuckwagon is located there and sells pizza, hot dogs, popcorn, nachos, candy and beverages for those who want something a little more substantial.

That sounds like fun! Is it usually crowded? If it's something that is not very expensive, I would be afraid that it would be packed.

The character interaction is limited. Chip and Dale make their way through the crowd in record time. They come to you and it is quick. That being said DD enjoyed it and the sing a long before the movie.

They sell all Smore ingredients as well as sticks, but you can bring our own if you want, they don't come cheap!

We've never made it early enough to see Chip and Dale but we have watched a movie a few times. We like to eat at Trail's End and then head over to the campfire.

I've moved this thread to the Camping at Disney World board. It's the best place to discuss all of the offerings available at Fort Wilderness.

Well worth it and a bunch of fun. Chip and Dale are pretty fast through the crowds but everything else is quite nice. For sure bring your own sticks and Smores items. They are very proud of theirs!
