h2odivers...Ray 952 Posted January 26, 2012 Report Share Posted January 26, 2012 We are thinking about having dinner at Wilderness Lodge and i was lookinjg at google map and it doesn't look that far but too far to walk. Is it faster to take our golf cart or take the boat? Is there special parking for the golf carts or do you just park it in the parking lot?Thanks Quote Link to post Share on other sites
doodlebug....Cherie 461 Posted January 26, 2012 Report Share Posted January 26, 2012 You can't take a golf cart to Wilderness Lodge. The walk is really quite nice. You can also ride your bike there. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
mouseketab.....Carol 1,261 Posted January 26, 2012 Report Share Posted January 26, 2012 There is a walking/bicycle trail between the Fort and wilderness Lodge, but Golf Carts are not allowed on that trail. You can take the boat over to WL or you can take a bus over there. If you are staying along the "yellow" Fort bus route, (Loop, 1500, 1400, 1600, 1700, 1800, 1900, 500), you can get on a Yellow Settlement bus and just stay on after the Settlement and it then goes to WL.

ftwildernessguy 778 Posted January 26, 2012 Report Share Posted January 26, 2012 Walk, bus, boat or bike but no carts. The trail is not very well lit, so if you are going at night you might consider the bus or boat unless walking through the woods in the dark doesn't bother you.

It worked well. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Momof6....aka Marty 769 Posted January 27, 2012 Report Share Posted January 27, 2012 I think the boat ride is magical and wouldn't travel any other way. BUT!! That is only because Lou wouldn't be driving the bus if i took one. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
h2odivers...Ray 952 Posted January 27, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 27, 2012 So the rode i see on google maps is not accesible with my golf cart? Can I drive my car there on that rode? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
mouseketab.....Carol 1,261 Posted January 27, 2012 Report Share Posted January 27, 2012 So the rode i see on google maps is not accesible with my golf cart? Can I drive my car there on that rode?No, it is just a walking/bike path. The actual road next to it, is Cast Member only. To go to WL by car, you would have to leave the Fort, turn left toward Magic Kingdom, then take a right, then take another right into WL. Then to return, reverse the route. (Sorry, don't know the names of the roads). Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Grumpy and Grandma 739 Posted January 27, 2012 Report Share Posted January 27, 2012 So the rode i see on google maps is not accesible with my golf cart? Can I drive my car there on that rode?Nope! Only buses and Disney vehicles. You can use your feet or your bike on the path however.Carol won! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Lou... 3,118 Posted January 28, 2012 Report Share Posted January 28, 2012 Can you make a good apple pie? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
h2odivers...Ray 952 Posted January 28, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 28, 2012 yes, yes i can. but i probably will not be baking at the fort Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Lou... 3,118 Posted January 28, 2012 Report Share Posted January 28, 2012 Too bad. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Momof6....aka Marty 769 Posted January 28, 2012 Report Share Posted January 28, 2012 I would happily bring an apple pie to the Fort, if it meant i got to see Lou. Darn those pesky bills that need to get paid, keeping me here rather than there. :argh: Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Lou... 3,118 Posted January 28, 2012 Report Share Posted January 28, 2012 I would happily bring an apple pie to the Fort, if it meant i got to see Lou.Right back at you Marty. We have to find a way, and we will, to get you guys down here. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
LONE-STAR 370 Posted January 28, 2012 Report Share Posted January 28, 2012 So the rode i see on google maps is not accesible with my golf cart? Can I drive my car there on that rode? Well it's accessible by golf cart it just against the rules to go down it. I really think they should allow carts to go over there. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
h2odivers...Ray 952 Posted January 30, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 30, 2012 That's silly. Why wouldn't they want golf carts at the Lodge? You would think that if they made it easy for people at the Fort to get there the more they would go there for drinks and dinner. I would be more likely to take my golf cart on a five minute drive then go to the bus stop, wait for the bus, take the bus around the fort and then finally arrive at the Lodge. Or wait for the boat to take me. I guess I'll just have to have a cocktail at Crockett's Tavern or find a Fiend to show me the secret golf cart path to the Lodge. Hahaha!
