Got it. 

So, are these tents or pop-ups that I saw set up in the 2000 loop today?:

So nice to see you posting photos. I feel 13 years younger. I need a real man of genius award in your next post.

That's funny 

Also are they doing the movie or camp fire?

And is the food truck open?

I saw on YouTube that the lodge was playing a movie.

Well anybody know if you can catch the boat to the Lodge or Contemporary?

As ol last weekend, 1500-1900 were all closed. So the only partial hookup was 2000, and the only full hookup was 2100. I think some premium loops were closed as well-700, and 1100-1300, but I’m not sure about that.

Well I hope they open more soon we like the 1200. But I will just be happy to be there, no matter the loop.

I agree with this, and will add that it also depends on the time of the year. The sun tracks in a much different path in the summer than it does in the winter, so the amount of shade varies by the season. A spot with good shade in the winter may not have as much shade in the summer and vice versa. 

Another twist to consider is that the 1500 loop remains closed since the original COVID-19 shutdown, with no indication as to when it will reopen.

So what loops are closed? 

We only go to the parks during the weekdays. Weekend we hang at the Fort.

I really don't know, we always do premium sites. 

Nooooooooo, I was really looking forward to short lines on our trip

Thanks

Well your plan makes sense then. There are definitely less booths around than they typically have for Food and Wine, but there is a good selection, and a good mix of favorites with some new items. So far, Epcot seems to have attracted the lightest crowds, so that will be a good thing for you. It’s very strange how empty it feels.

TCD

Well we are wanting till its cooler but I hope it stays empty 

Sounds like a plan. With the way things are now there really isn't much to plan. Enjoy.

Glad its working out for you some what. Hopefully someone will be there and can add you to there reservation. And yes I would pay the money to stay on property its vacation, I don't leave the Disney bubble unless someone needs medical attention.

“All you have to do is stay on Disney property...”

That’s a expensive way to get what I already paid for.   We have a condo/timeshare at bonnet creek.   And since we would have to make an unplanned trip to use our APs, before they expire, we have to use our condo.   When we come at Christmas or do our May/June trip we stay 10-15+ days. And we stay half the time at bonnet creek and the other half at a WDW Resort. 
 

If you had to plan a last minute trip to use or lose your APs and they closed the Fort. 
would pay $200+/night to stay at a Disney hotel or $50/night to stay in a camp ground 2 miles from epcot and Hollywood studios?  
 

our timeshare costs us Approx $50/ night. 
our maintenance fees are $612/ year.  We have 14 nights per year. 
 

My daughter doesn’t hear to many nos at WDW either. Lol. 

Actually had a similar situation happen in 2018. We had a trip planned to Disney to stay at the Fort. Our camper got totaled and we still wanted to go before our APs expired.

Called and got a reservation for P.O.R. and it was $200 a night. So yes if we want to go to Disney, we pay to stay at Disney.

Hope you get it all worked out.

All you have to do is stay on disney property and then you can have more days. I believe it's up to 14 in a row. Remember they have hotels they need to fill. 

But I agree we are AP holders and we spend like its vacation because it is. My daughter gets told no quite a bit at home, but she knows when were at Disney with in reason its going to  be a yes answer.

Hi! I'm new to this forum but have been following progress on the construction. We have a vacation at the Fort planned in December.  Last year we were sorely disappointed when we couldn't ride our bikes down the exercise trail and made sure to lodge our opinion to a CM about that. I was hoping it would just result in it opening up again.  

I too hope it's available very soon.  If anybody can find a talkative CM that might know the status on the trail, please let us know what you find out.

Thanks, Love Ft Wilderness

Welcome, and yes I hope it opens soon.

I am not real happy about this, we like being in the parks late into the night. Oh well at least there staying open. Maybe when it's time for our trip the hours will be later again.

I should clarify, the fencing was removed from the beginning of the trail at the Wilderness Lodge end.  A lot of the fencing that was around the new horse barn and the trail are gone too.

Still hoping it's all gone before our trip. I really love the bike ride to the lodge.

Thanks 

I just hope they open the trail back to the Lodge.

Thanks for the update. Sorry about the camper.

I have no clue but i am sure someone will. You may want to start  a thread with that title. And welcome.

You made me hungry, looks really good.
