    Any word or any prep work being done for new DVC cabins?

    I agree with all of this except that this is a good spot for a restaurant. This area is the heart of what camping is, where kids from all over the US play pickup games of football, throw a frisbee, and experience sand volleyball. That Disney lends you sporting equipment for FREE is one of...

    Any word or any prep work being done for new DVC cabins?

    Loop 2300 is closed and they are putting together a cabin or two in there. All the trailers are gone, sites are cleared, decks littering many sites still. It was a little less visible so no pics and there are big "Pictures and Videos are PROHIBITED" signs on all the fences. I think they will...

    Any word or any prep work being done for new DVC cabins?

    It's been at least 8-9 years of Easter and New Years plus some years also had summer. The allure just doesn't fade. We had the best site and the best weather we've ever had this weekend. Coldish at night and early morning, hot for the pool the rest of the day. It didn't even feel that...

    Any word or any prep work being done for new DVC cabins?

    I wonder if the ones in 100 will be the model cabins. @bama_ed We are in loop 1500, in one of your favorite sites, I think - 1513. It’s probably the best site we’ve had.

    Any word or any prep work being done for new DVC cabins?

    Here now and Loop 100 is closed and they are installing 2 of the new cabins. I thought that they would be pre-fab but they are built onsite (like a gingerbread house). Loops 100, 2000, and the (new) cabin loop are all closed. I hope 2000 is getting gravel to replace the sand.

    I think some of you are from Chicago - is 2 hours enough to get through customs at ORD and catch a domestic flight? The international leg and the domestic leg would be ticketed separately. ETA: Ok, the internet tells me this is pushing my luck particularly since we will be checking luggage...

    I had to cancel a big trip last summer due to my son being in a serious accident. The CSR covered our nonrefundable flights. It was a simple, painless process and it was done quickly. Read the fine print on the CSR insurance to ensure pre-existing conditions are covered. We have the same...

    Getting Out of the Cold: A January 2024 Visit To Fort Wilderness

    Insurance costs are also significantly higher per mobile home unit than per unit in a building. Maybe Disney is self-insured or maybe this isn't part of DVC dues but it could be a driver for higher costs.

    Getting Out of the Cold: A January 2024 Visit To Fort Wilderness

    Always so good to see a @bama_ed trip report!! We've only been in 1500 twice over a couple dozen trips and it is such a good loop!! We spent a good while trying to figure out what those benches were for over New Year's. They are so awkwardly placed in an area that doesn't really have a good...

    Campfire sing a long days

    It is Wednesday to Sunday. And Chip and Dale no longer circulate through the crowd - they come onstage for a (too long) comedy/jokes part of the sing along and then they exit. They come back for the hokey pokey.

    Fire Pits

    It's been a while since there was a traveling fire pit but a girl can hope...anyone know of any fire pits that are roaming around the Fort these days? My sister checked the facebook groups and none available / booked up. The RV rental places are sold out. We will be there for a few days over...

    Fort Wilderness Christmas closure?

    Interesting. We were there after Christmas and over New Year's last year and it was packed. I had a hard time getting a reservation this year for the same time period but was able to piece together the 30-4 as we wanted. I don't know if this is new but since this question comes up every so...

    @becauseimnew @2TxAgs @*WDW*Groupie* @elgerber @mmmears Thanks to all of you (and anyone else I may have missed) for advice on clothing for Paris for the winter. I think I've got the basic idea of a capsule wardrobe for him and am just looking for good deals so as not to spend a fortune on...
