  1. Thank you. That is what I thought. My hopes is maybe like the other DVC at the River country site, it will be scrapped. There is nothing wrong with these cabins except for cosmetics.
  2. Happy New Years fellow Fort Fiends. We are right now spending our last night in a Fort Wilderness cabin. We usually bring our 5th wheel and camp on a site for 10 days. But my son came down from Virginia so it’s been a short but sweet visit. Now for my rant. I am so mad as I look around at the beautiful surroundings of the 100s of cabins. And I ask why? With all the DVCs around and the ones that are proposed, do they need to take these away from the ordinary family that needs the room to have a comfortable stay. Why can’t they replace some to be DVC and leave some the way they anre for non DVC
  3. Thanks Jen. There used to be so many post daily, I couldn’t read them all? Started wondering if people weren’t posting anymore. Even though I like FaceBook I rather have blog site any day. I am hoping like you more people come back. Not sure what happened, but when I click on browsing the forums, there are posts from way back, few years ago. Is this correct? Or is there something wrong in settings? Thank you again Jen
  4. Oh they better bring the tables and rocking chairs back. Or there will be many unhappy campers.
  5. I guess Trails End has closed. We are here now and the site says it’s closed. No one in the dining hall. Thank goodness Pand J is opened.
  6. I remember as a teenager camping at the Fort in the early 70’s. At night they turned the buffet stations into build your own personal pizza. It was so cool. You would go through and build your little pizza pay for it then find a seat and wait for it to cook. There was bear heads hanging on the wall and other decor around. That was over 50 years ago and those are the best memories. Along with the open trams that would go around the loops to drop you off at your site. We would ride them just to avoid the mosquitoes. Ahh the memories. Miss them.
  7. Hey guys. Doing a 7 day cruise then 2 weeks at the Fort. See everyone on 3.4. But my question what is the boat loop? Is that the personal boats? I have been coming to the Fort since they opened and I have never heard boot loop before. Guess I have been out of the “loop”. Lol
  8. I saw the renderings. It looks so out of place. So disappointed that they closed the luau. It was our anniversary tradition.
  9. Thank you for the info. Even though it is a eyesore, I am so happy that the new DVC isn’t going in. The only good thing come out of the pandemic.
  10. We are here at the Ft for our annual anniversary trip. Between the crowds and the rain, we are going into the parks less than usual. I have two questions. First what is going on at the bus depot by pioneer hall. Seems like they are putting a lot of work and the fence what’s it hiding? Now what happened to all the rules of the Ft. I guess since you can do online check in, people don’t get the rules. I have never seen so many scooters electric razors not to mention motorcycles? Please tell me this is a faze
  11. We are here now at the Ft. Been here since 3/7. We were at Coronado Springs 3/2-3/7. My granddaughter was chosen for Disney Dreamer Academy. It has been ridiculously crowed these past 2 weeks. Even cast members have said they haven’t seen it like this ever. What is going on? And I just saw that graffiti is being engraved initials on Star Wars walls.
  12. Thank you. That’s what I was thinking

    Disney Cruise 🚢

    Just saw your post. This cruise, although not the usual Disney cruise, was great! They were only at 30% capacity. We never had to wait for the elevator. So good I booked 2 cruises before I got off the ship. But I understand your waiting
  14. Well sadly our vacation has come to a end Disney Cruise then 10 days at the Fort. Just wished the parks wouldn’t of been so busy. Covid? What is that. Anyway we loaded up our utility trailer and noticed the tires need some air. Does anyone know if there is a place to put air in the tires? Gas stations are not the gas stations of the past.

    Disney Cruise 🚢

    Hi everyone. Finally after 3 cancellation due to Covid, we are finally cruising 11/29-12/3/2021. We usually go in March, so this is our first holiday cruise. We take the bus transfer to the Port from Port Orleans and return to the Fort where we will stay for 10 days. We have always left our RV, truck, and our utility trailer at the Fort so it’s there when our cruise is over. We have never had problems before, but now with it being Sunday after thanksgiving the parking lot maybe crowded. Any suggestions on who I should contact or what I should do to have a spot for 5 days? Between this and havi
  16. We live in Miami and are passholders. I agree if we live out of state, I would wait till next year. Thanks for the advice
  17. You always have the “entitled” ones. We decided to go. Will be there on Sunday.
  18. thank you so much. I totally agree with everything you just said. We too are passholders have been for 20 years. The only way I was able to renew my tickets was to pay for a year upfront times two. That was in December and we went to two parks. So I cancel now, I would have paid almost 1,000 for 2 people to go for two days. We know what to expect so we are going just to get out of Miami for a bit. Thanks again
  19. Our anniversary is on the 10 and we always go to the Luau Now that they r closed. It is so upsetting
  20. Hi guys we have reservations starting 3/7. Our second trip since December. Now my husband is not excited about going especially since the new rule eating at restaurants. Can Someone tell me how are the parks and restaurants since December? I am iffy about going Thanks
  21. We come to the Ft twice a year for 10 days. We are here now but leaving on Friday 😔 went to two parks just for dinner. Too much construction everywhere. Plus wait times are more to allow social distancing. Here at the Ft there no carriage rides or campfires. Thank goodness there are a lot of decorated sites😊. But where are the regulars and their decorations? Usually the ones on the corners with beautiful decorations. Maybe people don’t want to take a chance? Hopefully things will be different when we come back.
  22. Never received a letter or email. We have been passholders since 2000. Since we had a trip planned I called them. I ended having to pay a whole year times two. But at least I got my passes
  23. And now everywhere you go, they want you to be on your phones. Went to Canada the other night, and they want you to scan the menu from your phone. I don’t know about anyone else, but I don’t want to be on my phone during vacation
