Fort Wilderness Campsites

• Will Perry's review of a premium campsite

Campsites:
Privacy for the 784 campsites throughout the 20 loops, is provided by the lush wilderness.  The sites are approximately 25' wide and range from 25' to 65' in length. They are a combination of paved driveway and sandy pad.  All sites have running water, electricity, charcoal grills and picnic tables.  There are full hook-up sites that provide sanitary disposal. 

TIP:  Preferred hook-up sites are located near the Settlement Trading Post, Pioneer Hall and the marina, and offer cable TV hook-up.  These sites may cost a little more and are found in loops 11 through 500 and 700.  To be near the Meadow Trading Post, campfire program and main pool, request loops 600, or 800 through 1600.

Air conditioned comfort stations are found throughout the resort.  They have restrooms, private showers, laundry facilities, an ice maker, and phones.  All but the laundry facilities are open 24 hours a day.  There is camping gear available to rent for those in need.  Pets are allowed in designated areas or can be boarded in a kennel near the entrance to the resort.  Check-in time is 1 p.m. and check-out is 11 a.m.  Guests checking in to the campgrounds may register at the drive-through windows at the Reception Outpost.

The "Cabin": There is one special cabin available.  It is 12x15 feet and has no inside sink or toilet.  There is a comfort station in the vicinity however. Sleeping accommodations consist of two sets of bunk beds, one being a twin over a full size, so the cabin can sleep 5. It is not air-conditioned and guests must bring their own linens.  No maid service is provided here.  It could be an inexpensive choice of accommodation for those who enjoy "roughing it" with a roof over their heads.
