    Yay for the mouse!  Happy to hear that you were safe and that all ended well!!   Sometimes no parks and just hanging out... really is the best plan!   Throw in some good food and hey... not too shabby   :)
     
    As for Christmas/New Years... sorry, I'm ahead of you on that request.  Haha

    We may purchase a Peachpass... anything to get us to the Fort (even a few minutes) faster :)

    If you log into your sunpass account you can order a free RF shield bag for your transponders. This blocks the signal and prevents your sunpass (or peachpass) from being charged for tolls.

    Even of you plan on eating most of your meals out, there's still going to be the need for snacks and drinks, especially in the summer months. You can go broke buying Disney drinks. If you need to purchase ice, either go off site it or get it from the meadow trading post. The ice machines at the bathrooms are not that hard of ice and it melts quickly.

    Welcome!!
     
    I was going to suggest the same as Yvonne for possible resort activities.  :)
     
    We also enjoy ...
    poking around Downtown Disney
    hopping a boat to the Contemporary then touring around the monorail resorts
    taking a trip out to Animal Kingdom Lodge to wander around, see the animals on the savannah, grab a nice meal
    touring around the Boardwalk resorts

    Welcome!
    I have not actually done this, but it sounds like a fun activity for a family not planning any park days.

    Nail stakes work, the plastic ones don't work too great, the sand is pretty hard packed.
    If you're not used to heat and humidity, then a fan is a must.
    Are you cooking at the site? Freeze crockpot type of meals ahead of time, then use a crockpot liner. Easy and quick clean up.
    Good ice chest is a must.
    Check out the evening wagon rides. ( not the carriage). Wagon rides are one of the best values at the fort.
    Fishing, bike rides, walks, canoe rides are all fun.
    They have poolside activities every afternoon.
    Use the boat rides to Contemporary or the MK to relax and cool off.

    If you are going during summer months, you might want to consider an air conditioner.

    I would think of bring some type of fan that you could use in or out of the tent, think it would be a big help at least for sleeping.

    Just want to say Welcome!  I've been a tent camper in the past with the Boy Scouts (former Scoutmaster) but not a glamper- let others chime in.
     
    Hoop-Dee-Doo is a Must-do.   The campfire and movie is a lot of fun - we usually take our own s'mores but they have kits for sale (at a premium) but make it easy if you are running low on space. 
     
     
    Loop/Site requests - faxing or calling as described here always works well for me. http://www.fortfiends.net/_/accomodations/loopsite-requests-r125
