Dreaming of Disney...

Okay, I'm a long time Disney guest having visited at the WDW resort numerous times in the last 40 years. However I have always stayed at Fort Wilderness Resort. Simply put, we LOVE the Fort. In fact, we have ressies there for two weeks in Oct. this year.
Then, I noticed that Disney is offering the free dining plan during our time frame. After having checked it appears that we can stay at Port Orleans with a "plus" dining plan for about the same cost of staying at the Fort. Our trip to the Fort would be in our pop-up with only partial hookups and would require eating one meal at the campground each day and a counter service meal in the parks.
However if we stayed at a different resort (POFQ) we would have the dining plan and could eat whatever we desire.
My question is, is it worth it? Since we have never stayed anywhere else other than the Fort, we are apprehensive that we might not enjoy ourselves anywhere else and that we will miss the "magic" of the Fort.
What do you think? I would love to hear opinions from those who have done both. Thanks!
