OTHER GENERAL GOLF CART FAQs & NOTES:
  • since the security changes to the overflow parking lot, you should  contact the rental company to find out what they need to do in order to  deliver your cart.
  • off-site rental carts are considered "personal" carts and must have  the same equipment as the rental carts, incl. windshield, front and rear  lights
  • you do not need to notify Fort Wilderness that you will be bringing your own golf cart or renting one off-site
  • there is golf cart parking which can be used by any golf cart (personal, Disney and off-site rentals):
    • On the driveway at your site
    • Near the marina
    • Near Trails End and the Hoop de Doo
    • Near the Meadows Recreation Area and Campfire/Movie
    • Near the Outpost Bus Stop
    • Near the Settlement Bus Stop
  • there are a limited number of recharging stations (plugs) in the  golf cart parking areas near Trails End; the Marina; and near the  Settlement bus stop
  • there are no recharging stations (plugs) at the Outpost golf cart parking area
  • all cabins/campsites have their own accessible plug to recharge your cart
  • you cannot drive golf carts on any roads outside of Fort Wilderness or on the road/path to Wilderness Lodge
  • 4 seater carts are large enough to hold 4 adults comfortably, but it  is possible to squeeze in extras - particularly smaller kids - depending  on size. Capacity limits are not posted/enforced.  6 seater carts are  available through some outside vendors (see below)

OFF SITE RENTALS
The vendors noted below have all been used or recommended by Fort  Fiends.  FortFiends.net does not officially endorse any of the vendors  noted below.

NOTE: It's been reported that Disney's official policy is that  outside rental companies may not "do business" on Disney/Fort Wilderness  property.  The companies noted below generally make all arrangement for  the actual rental before you arrive at the Fort and each has their own  procedures for how they get the cart to you.  Since access to the  overflow lot at Fort Wilderness is now restricted to those with key card  access only, be sure to get details about pickup/drop off from whomever  you're working with prior to making your arrangements.

IMPORTANT - please be sure to let these folks know that you found out about them through FortFiends.net.  :)

FOR ALL VENDORS BELOW, PLEASE CALL TO CONFIRM CURRENT PRICING!

Just reserved our Kenny cart for Christmas week and he qouted $35/day
Has anyone rented from Kissimmee Golf rentals?
To All,

Remember you can rent from a outside cart company. Keep in mine out side cart company's are not allowed on WDW property. It is OK to pick it up and bring it in and then return it all off property. That means the entire WDW property. If the cart company's are caught they will be tresspassed from WDW not just the Fort area.
This is true on paper.  However, like most large corporations, what is enforced and what is not depends on who is working and what shift.  Thank you for your public service announcement though.
Kenny has always provided excellent service every time we have rented from him. Our cart was delivered directly to our site last time.
First off, thanks for all the info.  Using this board and all your great info allowed my to rent a golf cart for our upcoming trip for 9 days in June  at less than half of what WDW wanted.  I would have preferred to rent from Disney and would have even done so if their prices were only slightly higher, but not when I can get it for less than half. We rented it from TeeTime golf carts.  The gal told me they will call the day before to make sure we are arriving on the day originally planned and then when we get our site# to just give them a call and they will deliver it to the site.  I questioned her becuase of the above posts.  I asked if I had to meet in a parking lot etc.  She said no, they can get on site and deliver right to your spot and pick it up as well.  That was as of 3 weeks ago.
