They seemed a little mixed up re. where the trail ride is and where Pioneer Hall is, though.

Thanks for posting the link.

It's a nice little article. But, it sounds like the author just took to boat over from the Contemporary, walked around the Settlement area, and headed back.

This paragraph struck me as a bit over the top (and inaccurate):

Nearby, one of the other buildings is home to the Settlement Trading Post, which sells a wide variety of items, including basic groceries and some completely unique souvenirs that we saw only at Fort Wilderness during our stay. It's a cavernous place with a really high roof and it's worth looking up to see the theming that's gone in here.

The Settlement Trading Post is cavernous? Really? Not so much to me.

Completely unique souvenirs only available at Fort Wilderness? Really? Has the author ever visited the WL gift shop? Or any other resort gift shop on property? I wonder what these unique souvenirs could be?

I kind of had the idea they read a description of FW and did exactly what TCD said, then wrote the article about it. My guess is they were there less than an hour.

I thought the same thing. The author didn't venture very far.

I agree. If I wasn't already a Fort addict, the article wouldn't have given me much gumption to go check it out.

I wonder if they know there are camp sites there too with tents, trailers and RVs - that part seems to have completely escaped them Well, their next article will be about SoG - but they may have a hard time getting in there.

Not to mention two pools, another trading post (which I think is better than the one they saw), cabins, tennis courts, an outdoor movie, etc, etc, etc.
