If you didn't pay a deposit than you don't have any confirmed ressies. With that said if you paid a deposit and are now trying to bing them up on the web-site "Good luck". They are still experiencing issues with the new ressie system. You are much better off calling.

I did call and was told all sites are booked. ALL. Could this be possible!!! They said the only thing I could do was wait and see if anyone cancels.

If you try this weekend through the next weekend it should show sites. I just tried it and it had all categories available. Are you just trying FL resident or any special offers or plain old ressies?

When you booked, you should have been given a confirmation number. How did you go about booking?

I would try it again another day. For my last trip, there were no sites at all for many days. Then one day, all the sites were available. You never know. I think Disney's reservation system is not good.

On that note, calling never seemed to make a difference for me. The cast members seem to use the same online reservation system that we do. They do not see more than us.

I just now searched for a period of 2/11 through 2/18 and a full hook up site was available. Do this, pay the deposit get your confirmation number then call tomorrow and cancel the days you don't want.

Thank you for giving me hope. I did search and found one day available. I will keep trying!!!!

I just did the same search at 7:45 this morning and got the same results as the search I did last night, a Full Hookup site available. On the Disneyworld.com website click on the "Tickets & packages" link on the upper right. on the next page that opens click on "Book room only" on the left. Enter an arrival date of 2/11 and check out of 2/18, enter the number of adults and children then click "advanced search". Click the dot by "campground" then click the dot by "The Campsites at Disney's Fort Wilderness Resort". Hit the continue button and your on your way.

There may be very limited sites available cause I did the search a second time within minutes of the first search this morning and was told nothing was available.

You have to search for longer periods of time than the 2 nights you want. It seems the reservation system likes to leave sites available for people who want to book longer stays than just a weekend. By booking the entire week you'll get the days you want then call the next day and cancel the dates you don't want.

Do like they are telling you. Book a week, pay your deposit & get your confirmation, then call back in a couple of days to cancel the days you don't need.

Have them check all possible dates around the dates you want. You might have to book for 2 weeks, pay the deposit, and then cancel out what you don't want. I have done this when I have tried to book during peak seasons. Also, don't be set on premium, preferred, or full hook up. If one of the 3 is available, I would take it and then keep calling so see if you want has opened up.
