Best kept Disney secret & our favorite place to vacation. Pet park-nice. Watch fireworks @the marina (best are New Years!) get a golf cart, c hoop dee doo, canoe ride. Most relaxed way to do Disney.Upvote18DownvoteUpvoted Feb 23- Scott ScheirerJune 22, 2013Great place to stay if you have kids. There is 2 pools (one open 24/7). A Campfire nightly (Weather permitting), and a water show nightly. great inside transportation (but golf cart is a must)Upvote13Downvote
We tent camp here and love it. We love exploring and the activities here. Most relaxing place to stay at Disney if you like the outdoors. Obnoxious kids seems less obnoxious here :)Upvote9Downvote
Linda MiklowitzDecember 22, 2013As a non-meat eater, offered moist salmon and grilled veggies or pasta dishes. Others had reg fried chicken and meaty pork ribs. The strawberry shortcake had real berries in the glaze. Excellent meal.Upvote5Downvote- Kris ProkopAugust 12, 2015Rent a paddle boat and check out the wilderness! During the holidays, rent a golf cart and make the rounds to view the Christmas lights! Beautiful! And don't forget trails end restaurant- awesome !Upvote3Downvote
The Trails End Restaurant has a take out option. Prices are really reasonable!! Great for set up day!Upvote1Downvote
Sean LebAugust 7, 2014From cabins to camp sites, the largest resort at Disney offers a vacation in itself. Campfires, live entertainment, beach and lake activities, and more.UpvoteDownvote
Dale AndrewsOctober 21, 2015Rent/reserve a golf cart otherwise add ~30 mins to any trip you plan on making in our out of the campground. Internal transport is GOOD just time consuming! Could never leave and have it all. xoxoxoUpvoteDownvote
Chris PFebruary 16, 2016Fun place for old school camping. Disney pricing but there are plenty of things to do.Upvote1Downvote
Bruno LeonardoMay 9, 2019Awesome spot, fun for little kids. Free, Wi-Fi, bathrooms, foodtruck ...Upvote1Downvote- Thoris N Miki BurtApril 5, 2015This was our first camping trip and we had SO much fun!! The weather was perfect for s'mores and hot chocolate.UpvoteDownvote
Flavia WalterApril 24, 2014So much fun for the whole family! Chip'n'Dale are awesome! Making s'mores was fun too. Call ahead to Check the movie schedule.Upvote1Downvote
Not secluded as the website suggests. Right on the road and could see both neighbors on either side. Ferry and transportation are convenient but rent a golf cart! Faster to get to outside bus.UpvoteDownvote
Debbie O'Hern KimzeyMay 22, 2015Excellent camping even if you don't go to Disney. Lots of things to do and you don't even have to leave the campground.UpvoteDownvote
If you are staying in the 600, 700, 800 or 900 loop hop on a yellow bus and get off at the 1500 loop walk past the pool and you are near those loops and the meadows trading postUpvoteDownvote
We camp a lot and this is the best camp ground EVERUpvote1Downvote
Killer SqrlFebruary 17, 2014Shuttles very infrequent, so plan on waiting a long time for transportation. Only one place for quickservice lunch in the resort, The Meadows. Don't plan on eating lunch at the settlement.UpvoteDownvote
Bring or rent bikes if you can manage it. They're actually faster AND cheaper than golf carts. Plus you can take them on the sidewalk!Upvote4Downvote
Absolutely love this resort. Great atmosphere and beautiful, especially during the holidays.UpvoteDownvote
NikkiAugust 13, 2013A home away from home in the wilderness. Love it! Nice and cozy! Family first time here.UpvoteDownvote
David WeeklyMay 30, 2013The Hoop Tee Doo Show is fun. :-) Potatoes, ribs, and sangria are all good. Chicken is kind of dry. Good show, though.Upvote2Downvote
The golf carts are not inexpensive, but they sure add to the fun of the entire resort

If you want a golf cart make sure to call and make a reservation you can reserve a cart up to a year in advanceUpvote1Downvote- Tim ScoutelasMarch 16, 2011The most affordable and family oriented way to do Disney. Cabin or Camping. You cannot go wrong. Be sure to take the family on a canoe trip.Upvote3Downvote
ღDeeღ ღAguirreღMarch 9, 2013A great place to stay for a family. My kids loved the bunkbeds! A short boat ride to Magic Kingdom.UpvoteDownvote- Tariq JawadOctober 31, 2014Check them out around Halloween, the campers go nuts decorating their sites.UpvoteDownvote
I love the pool here! It's huge and the hut tub is one of the hottest ones in disney!Upvote1Downvote
Bus run every twenty mins. It took for ever to get a bus to epcot so take a ride to magic kingdom and then get to epcotUpvoteDownvote
Chris FischerFebruary 5, 2012You don't want to stay in the 900's RV sites on weekends. Too Close to the group campsites. Think: 100s of screaming cub Scouts.Upvote3Downvote
