Some good things to consider!  Thank you!

Thank you!  I really appreciate any and all information.  I like to be armed with knowledge :D

Hi!  We are driving from Indianapolis to FW in October.  We were wanting to spread out our trip so that we can take our time getting down to FL and also to break up the trip for the kids.  Since we will have the camper, we thought it would be fun to do an overnight in the Gatlinburg/Pigeon Forge area.  We have not been there before, but I was wondering if there were any suggestions on the best places to stay.  We will only be there for one night, but may go again on a future visit for a longer period of time.  Our second stop will most probably be right past Atlanta in the Macon, GA area.  If anyone has any experience or suggestions, it would be greatly appreciated.  It will also just be a quick trip to that area as we want to get down to FW and enjoy our time exploring there as soon as we can.  Thank you!

Hi!  I just came across this forum which seems really helpful.  We just booked our first trip to FW for Oct. 9-17.  This will be our second time going to WDW and first time staying at a Disney Resort (we stayed off site last time).  We have a hybrid TT and decided to book a premium site so that we can have some extra room for the kids to play and hopefully some additional privacy. 

Based on what I've been able to research so far, it appears that 1400 is a loop suggested for families due to proximity to the amenities, but seems very popular.  My kids will be 8, 6, 3, and 11 months at the time of travel.  We will most probably be renting a golf cart on the days that we will be at the resort, but wanting to to get some more input on other loops.  I'm leaning toward 1200/1300 loop which appears to be close enough to walk, but far enough to not be super busy.  For those who have stayed there before, are there certain sites within the loop that you would recommend?  I am sensitive to noise and would prefer not being close to walking paths or bus stops/foot traffic.  We don't necessarily need to be close to the CS either as we will have everything in our TT. 

On the map, it appears that there are some lots that backup to a lot of vegetation, but closer to the canal.  What are those numbers?  I can't seem to find a map with the numbered sites to get a better idea of how the numbering of the sites works.  I did download the app (which is incredibly helpful as I'm a visual person), but would still like to have any input from seasoned campers :)  I guess I should also add that we will only be going to two parks and one night to the Halloween Party at MK.  We would also like to go to the beach for one day of our trip, pending weather.  Thanks!
