Bringing food/drink into parks

[shelbel95]

What kind of limitations are there to bringing in food/drinks?

We are a family of 4 coming next week. I'm planning to bring in a back pack with some bottles of water (probably 2-4) and some snacks. Is that okay?

Also, are there places to refill water bottles throughout the park?

Thanks!

I brought in 6 bottles of water/day (1 for each of us), 6 apple sauce squeezeables (1 for each of us), a sandwich bag ziploc of pretzels, and a movie box of sour patch kids...not an issue any day when we were there in late May...

Skip lugging water around. There are free cups of water all over the place.

We brought in water this week. It was convenient having them right there as opposed to waiting in line. Uncrustables are super convenient also

You can bring in whatever you want, as long as its not alcohol. Glass containers may be prohibited, not sure. If you want to pack meals and snacks for everyone for the entire day you can do so.

Also no loose ice. Freeze a water bottle to act as your ice. I don't bring water bottles or buy them in the park. I have a 1 liter HydroFlask I fill with ice in the morning and then top off with whatever water will fit. I just replace the water at quick service locations. Just ask for cups of ice water to refill your bottle. They give a you a 12oz cup of water with a few cubes of ice. Perfect for what you are looking for. The ice in your bottle will last all day, assuming you don't add warm water.
