We were recently there. We were in the 2100 loop which is right in the middle of Fort Wilderness. We loved our location. It was close to a bus stop, walking distance to the quiet pool and a short bus trip from everything else. It was also really quiet - which is something we relish at the end of a long day at the parks.
That being said, we still liked the convenience of having a golf cart. Rent from Disney, by the way. Wouldn't recommend using any of the outside vendors, although I've heard relatively good things about Kenny. He just didn't return calls from us, which is a huge pet peeve of mine.
