A few ?'s about tent camping...

[iamalittlegoofy]

1. We would like to be close to a comfort station. All we need is elec and water, but do not want to wait long periods for the showers. Should I spend a few $ more and stay in loops with more RV's and less traffic at comfort station, or would I be ok at partial hook-up? (staying 10-4/10-8) (would be getting up around 6am for showers)(Tent camping)

2. We will be going to the parks on the day of check-out. (only a 3 hour ride home). After we pack-up and leave, where could I park? Truck pulling a trailure with golf cart.

I have never had a problem getting a shower in the partial hookup loops. I usually shower at night though. I don't think you'll have a problem at 6am either. I usually have to run in there about that time each morning and it is usually empty.

Once you break camp, you can park out in the overflow lot near the Reception Outpost. You can use Disney Transportation from there and enjoy your day.

most comfort station are not full a that time. Unless it early entry to the park.
There are 4 showers each.
They have a overflow lot where you can park for the day.there is no overnight
parking anymore.

I've camped several times at the Fort and never had a wait for showers no matter what time we went...early am or after dinner...I think you should be fine reguardless...Park in overflow and have a blast!!! we do that too...even if we have a LONG way to drive.....drive a few hours then stay at a site closer to home...enjoy!

Just an addendum. I have pulled my TT into the parking lot of the park we want to go to after checkout and enjoyed a few hours there. Then we hop in and hit the road without riding buses back to the outpost for our truck/trailer. There are spaces that the parking CM's use for RV's, cars with trailers, etc. and it allows more time in the park!

We always park at the park we want to visit before heading home as well. Last time we went at Thanksgiving we went to MK for a 1/2 day and rode a few rides then had lunch.

Thanks, that is a great idea.

If you have a golf cart you don't have to worry about the comfort station being crowded. If your comfort station is busy, just hop in the golf cart and head out to check out another. At 6 am probably few of them will be too busy, though.
