Perhaps Disney could take a $20/head/night "deposit" to be held on the customer's card until the time of check in. Upon check in the card would be cleared and if they don't check in with their 10 guests then they get charged that amount. $20 is arbitrary...could be more or less, however $20 x 10 people is somewhat painful if you aren't gonna show up. Where there's a will there's a way to come up with a solution. Disney may not have the will, however.
At this point I think they just do the on-line check-in and never actually set a foot on the Fort Wilderness Property. While they may not be breaking any rules, they are violating the intent of the rules and that in turn hurts others who would be make a legitimate campsite reservation. The rule being those special perks, like free parking, 60 day out FP+ selection, advance dinner reservations and others that are intended for people who actually stay on property.
As Tiggerdad said above - While I understand why they are doing it, to make a more affordable vacation, I don't appreciate the "I don't care if I block another family from being able to stay, I only care about what I get out of it" open attitude that some of them present. - theses are people who only care about themselves and not the affects of their actions on others. Until Disney decides to stop it this will continue to happen, as there are always going to be those who will find a way to exploit a loophole for there benefit no matter who else it may negatively affect.
terrible how some people are..........
