twiceblessed....nacole 433 Posted April 14, 2016 Report Share Posted April 14, 2016 Can you actually fit on one site?? I think this is the million dollar question at The Fort. This week, I saw (what is "suppose to be" a no-no) in the 1200 loop...a travel trailer with a PUP behind it; plus the two TVs. Then (in the 1500 loop) there was a site with 3 large tents, 3 vehicles and 2 small screened rooms. Interesting..... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ependydad...Doug 176 Posted April 14, 2016 Report Share Posted April 14, 2016 Heck, I often have issue fitting my house + truck on the site without resorting to tires on grass. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Travisma 1,317 Posted April 14, 2016 Report Share Posted April 14, 2016 We have done less than 10 people actually staying overnight at the site, but sometimes over 10 visiting/eating. We have 2 vehicles, pup, large tent, screen room, and sometimes a 2 person tent on partial sites. Now our pup is small, and we keep it on the cement pad, we turn it sideways so the door faces into the site. Even doing that, we can get my Ram and a car on the driveway. large tent and screenroom go on the sand pad, 2 person on the grass Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Katman1356...Jason 1,140 Posted April 14, 2016 Report Share Posted April 14, 2016 technically the pup with the trailer is a no no now a days but if they dont enforce it nothing will happen there. 10 people can be booked into a site and while I think it says 2 tents online I dont think that is ever enforced.

GaDawgFan.....Kelly 799 Posted April 15, 2016 Report Share Posted April 15, 2016 They went through a phase where they were really enforcing not letting PUPs behind trailers or RVs. Sounds like they might not be anymore. Sure would stink to plan to do that and be told to leave though. Not worth it IMO. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

How many RVs or TT will sleep 10 people, so they will need something else to house the excess bodies. I know they say a tent is ok with a TT, but some of the tents are larger now a days than some PUPs. Is the concern about sharing utilities? Don't want to get others riled up, but again it all boils down to the consistent lack of enforcing rules evenly on a wide range of things. Enforce rules evenly across the board on all subjects, and the place will run a lot smoother. djsamuel 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

keith_h 420 Posted April 16, 2016 Report Share Posted April 16, 2016 We can fit two full size adults and one smaller person if we turn the dinette into a bed. I guess we could sleep a fourth on the floor but it could be dangerous for them in the middle of the night since it is the path to the bathroom. We've talked to our daughters about going camping with us but we made it clear they would have to sleep in a tent. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
CCIntrigue...aka Gwen 547 Posted April 16, 2016 Report Share Posted April 16, 2016 We can sleep four adults and two children. Also we have room for air mattresses on the floor to sleep four more. But I'd never want to try it. As with most Class A's, our moho is set up for two people with occasional visitors. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Cortezcapt (Derek) 156 Posted April 16, 2016 Report Share Posted April 16, 2016 Our 18ft tt said it slept 6, we did it once 5 adults, a 9 yo, and a 60 lbs boxer. It was snug that's for sure. Our new tt says 6 but there is plenty of room for a few twin size air mattresses if we need to. Sent from my SM-G900V using Tapatalk Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Grumpy and Grandma 739 Posted April 18, 2016 Report Share Posted April 18, 2016 Most of the newer Bunk House units do as well. It's surprising how many Grandparents are buying them so they can take the family along. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Retired and Happy (Ken) 101 Posted April 18, 2016 Report Share Posted April 18, 2016 We once slept 12 in a 28 footer enroute...with no bunk beds and no air mattresses. Once we got to the Fort, five of them slept in a side room on hi-rise air mattresses. And 8 of the total were kids/babies. These days it's 4-5 max. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Helmsey......Todd 134 Posted April 18, 2016 Report Share Posted April 18, 2016 I think we have enough bed area for 10 or 11 bodies, but no way in hades would I attempt that. The most we have had is 4 "adults" and 3 kids and that was PLENTY cramped for us. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Octopus Prime 1 Posted February 12, 2018 Report Share Posted February 12, 2018 Ours says it sleeps 10, but we don't wish to attempt that. We do plan to go with some family and stay in the fort with 4 of us in a TT and 3 in an off-site hotel at night, but all 7 of us having meals at the campsite and going to parks together.

Sent from my Pixel XL using Tapatalk Welcome. I would add your three offsite guests to your reservation. If they will be traveling from their hotel to the fort in their car. If they’re traveling by taxi or Uber it won’t matter. It will make it easier on them coming and going from the fort.It will make it easier on them coming and going from the fort.

And honestly, one of the three might. One of the three is my FIL, and he is a larger, older guy that would be very uncomfortable in a TT. He would not want to stay in it overnight, but will enjoy being there during the day.Sent from my Pixel XL using Tapatalk caveat lector 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
