Got The Camping Bug? Try Disney World

Did you know that Disney World offers fully functional campgrounds for you, your children,  and even the family dog? If you want to go camping, the Fort Wilderness Resort at Disney World in Florida might be the perfect vacation spot for you.  All campsites include electricity and water, and for an extra fee you can even get high-speed Internet access.

Now there is another option: a safe, modern camping environment at Disney World. Disney’s Fort Wilderness Resort offers campsites just ten miles from the Magic Kingdom, complete with water canals, ducks, deer, and rabbits, and forest trails. Unlike traditional campsites, Disney also offers cable television, air conditioning, and even high speed Internet. Pets are allowed in some parts of the campgrounds. Disney Fort Wilderness Resort is well worth the money they charge for you to camp there.

Camping at Disney World has several advantages. First of all, it is completely safe. You won’t encounter bears or other wild animals in the middle of the night, nor will you run into strangers living in the woods for nefarious purposes. So the kids will get the camping experience they desire while you have peace of mind. It also has modern conveniences, so you will not have to find places to use the bathroom or use tree leaves as toilet paper.

Finally, the outdoor atmosphere at Disney is beautiful. The campsites are situated in a forest full of pine and cypress trees and there are log cabins or other rustic-looking buildings on site. Best of all, camping at Disney World is not expensive; you can rent your campsite for as little as $43 per night plus tax.  Camping at Disney is also safer than camping at a traditional campsite. There are no dangerous wild animals at Fort Wilderness Resort.

If you get tired of camping, Disney offers complimentary transportation for resort guests to  each of its theme parks. There are six parks accessible by bus: the Animal Kingdom, Epcot  Center, Hollywood Studios, Downtown Disney, and the Typhoon Lagoon and Blizzard Beach Water  Parks.

As a Disney World Resort guest, you are also entitled to complimentary transportation to and from all Disney Theme Park locations. In addition to the Magic Kingdom and Epcot Center, you and your children could visit the Animal Kingdom or any of the Disney World Water Parks.

If you have a dog, you can bring him or her to selected areas of the campsite. Your dog will enjoy walking through the campgrounds and will have an air-conditioned place to sleep. Cats are presumably also welcome on the campsite, although most cats are not leash trained so this may not be a good idea.

In short, if you are looking for a camping experience to complement your vacation, Disney’s Fort Wilderness Resort may be the place for you and your family. You can experience camping with modern conveniences, explore Disney World, and find plenty to do on your vacation.

Camping in Florida can be a quite varied experience.  You might want to extend your vacation in order to really get into the wild or even spend some time at a beautiful beach.
