You don't have to worry about Airport security.

You get good food on the trip down.

You don't have to worry about the plane falling out of the sky.  (Ya I know it's less likely than me smashing up the Motorhome, but I am in control of that so I know what's happening and can prepare for it, LOL)

You can cook out on the grill.  (The hotel's are funny about setting up a Coleman grill in the hall for some reason)

I just priced our next WDW vacation with our son, DIL, and their four children.

 

We're paying an average of $90 per night at the fort without figuring in the AAA discount which we hope to snag.

 

The cheapest alternative is $765 a night at Saratoga Springs.  The only other option offered is $1749.52 per night at AKL. 

 

They are going to stay offsite but we're adding them to our reservation so they can use the fort anemities.  I wouldn't want to stay at Saratoga Springs ... too far away ... and not fond of staying at AKL either.  Can you imagine paying $12,246.64 for a week at AKL?

Well, that's if you are all in the same room. You could probably do two or three rooms at a moderate for less than 765 a night.

 

But yes, I get where you are going with this. Large families and Disney hotel resorts are EXPENSIVE!!

No, I cannot imagine spending that much! I like Disney but if ever I spend that much I am not going to do it at a  Disney World resort. A Cruise, Hawaii ,some place with beautiful islands! Maybe!

Just for curiosity I just plugged in a request for a Contemporary Garden Wing One Bedroom Suite during the first week of November.  That's where we always stayed during the 70's - 80's before we got our first RV.  Back then I distinctly remember paying $145.77 a night during the summer.  Now that same room is $1,260.16 a night in November!  Then the room was a bargain.  It was a little less in cost than two regular rooms in the Garden Wing and was three + times as big.  We had a huge bedroom with a king-size bed, it's own bathroom, a living room with two sofa beds, a full kitchen, and another huge bathroom.

 

BTW, $12,246.64 would pay for the fort for 136 nights at $90/night.  Also at an average of $90/night, a full year at the fort would cost almost $33,000.

You could take the $12, 246.64 and buy a camper, maybe a new popup or maybe a used travel trailer!  Just saying! ^-^
