Hey there DISCampers! So DW approved a solo trip for me, in return for the ones I keep sending her on with her mother. Being the good DISer that I am... told her I'm headed for Disney. Now this trip won't be for a good while yet, but I thought I'd start gathering some feedback.
DW and I are both budget travelers. We tend to try and keep room costs, travel expenses, etc.. as low as we can so we can spend a bit more on food, beverages, and souvenirs. Since I'm going solo, and more of an all day park person, I started considering just grabbing a small campsite to park my car (driving from PA) and set up a tent. The tent we have is nothing special, not sure on size, but big enough to fit a queen-size air mattress with some room left for bags.
Since I've never camped at Disney before I'm not entirely sure this is the best route to go, but it seemed like it would be a ton of fun! I guess my current inquiries are as follows:
*Do you think it will be too much of a hassle trying to set-up a site solo and even worth it as I'll probably only be there to sleep?
*Do you still get the feel of being 'in' Disney like you do at the resorts?
*Are there months when campsite prices are lower yet not subject to hurricanes passing through ?
*Any general tips or tricks that someone who has never camped Disney before should be aware of?
Thanks in advance for any help/advice!
