Current work at the Fort

[bama_ed]

I forgot to say when I was here a year ago, the staging area for the cabins along Big Pine Dr was unsightly. Not anymore!

@ScarletFire,

If the big staging field's new grass looks good, I guess they'll use it for the Halloween overflow parking coming up soon as they did in years past (except for 2024 during the cabin buildout).

Thanks for the pics. Great job!

A couple pictures from yesterday, 9/23/25, of the meadow pool construction. Working steadily on all the drainage and pool piping for the area. The dry pond next to the new pool area already had grass growing and is level.




One quick picture of LSL and the main lobby coming together.

I'm wondering what the plans are for the old pool space once the new one opens.

And the new resort looks like it will be very nice when done. It's just a shame they decided to encroach so much onto the Fort.

This is a picture from the fence. I’m hoping the final facade matches the settlement. Construction was loud while waiting for the boat this morning as work on the A-frames was in progress.


The new resort is only visible from the settlement! The campground is still the campground!!

What’s the current state of the Meadows area, and accessing the pool, store, bike barn from the various loops?
Will be there in under 3wk cheer2:yahoo!!), not planning on a cart golf, will have a bike. Will be in a tent, so loop 1500 or 2000.

From 1500, you would walk/bike to 1400 loop, go past the Theater Under the Stars, you will then run into the Bike Barn. The pool would be straight ahead after the Bike Barn. The trading post would be across the bridge on the right.

From 2000, you could approach from the main road down the center of the campground. You would find the Meadow TP on the right, go through or around, cross the bridge, the pool is to the right, the bike barn to the left.

Photo from Bioreconstruct showing the layout of the pool and two adjacent buildings. One possibly bathrooms and the other a snack bar?
