Should we get 1 or 2 campsites?

[stobaugh6]

We are tent camping in November for 2 weeks. This is our first time to camp at Fort Wilderness. There will be 9 people in our group (2 adults and 7 kiddos ages 14, 12, 9, 9, 7, 3, and 2). We have 2 very large tents. I would like to just get one campsite, but I am wondering if the campsites are really big enough for two large tents. Should we go ahead and book 2 sites?? Or do you think 1 will be large enough? Thank you so much for the help!!

You are definitely ok with 1 campsite. Save the money for something else.

You may want to double check the max # of people on the site. Have you requested a loop? I was in 300 had a RV and family tent . Worked well. but I doubt you could get 2 family tents on the sand pad in this loop. Then the option for the 2nd tent would be on tent on the concrete.

Don't know about the tent only sites, just thought I would through it out there.

Slept on a cot for two weeks with a air mattress worked pretty well

As far as I know you are allowed 10 people per site

from what i understand you should have plenty of room. The rule is no more than 10 to a site-

you could consider a different type of site e.g premium as they are larger overall but you would be tenting on the concrete rather than the pad. We get our 35' camper + 17' car on a premium site easily.

How would one stake a tent on concrete

How would one stake a tent on concrete

Our tent is a dome, and it doesn't need to be staked. We can just assemble it, pick it up and move it where we want. Putting gear inside would help it stay put.

We've put it up like this before with no problems.
