Just Booked - June 2016

[texasroni75]

Just booked our 10th Disney trip for early June 2016, but this will be our first time staying at Ft. Wilderness. We will be driving from central TX, and we will be tent camping (standard tent/pop-up site). Luckily, we have LOTS of camping gear due to being avid campers in the Northeast as well as TX. That said, we know how campsites can vary in size and shape, and we are looking for some guidance as to which loop/site would be best for us.

We will be a group of 4 adults, 3 kids. No pets coming with us (our dogs will be boarded). We do not plan to rent a golf cart, but may bring our bikes. Since we have several tents from our garage to choose from (10x14, 13x9, 10x10, 7x7), we'd like to know approximate dimensions of most tent sites so we don't bring something that just won't fit. Ideally, we would like to be able to fit two tents, so that oldest DD and her fiance can have their own sleeping quarters. We also have an EZ-up screen canopy/tent for an eating area. What will actually fit?

Thanks in advance for tips!

Texasroni,

I undertook a little project related to your question a few years ago that might be of some help.

You will probably want to bring some small fans to help sleeping at night which can still be warm in June.

PS - People like 1500 for its more central location to pool, Trading Post, and campfire movie spot. People like 2000 for its bigger tent pads. Bottom line is if you add the sizes of your two tents on the ressie, the assigner will ensure you get a site that fits you.

Exactly what I needed! Thank you

Awesome. We will be there in June as well. We are heading to the Fort June 2-9 after a couple of days stopover for the GSP meet. Also traveling from Texas (Houston area)
