My first post from our trip to Fort Wilderness highlighted some of the areas around the resort. As I shared, we stayed in one of the 300+ cabins on property. Each cabin is numbered. We stayed in the 2600 block in cabin #2695 on Moccasin Trail. This is a great block to stay on. There is a bus stop right in front and a pool plus laundry directly across the street. We read online that the higher numbers are newer cabins but we only saw ours so we cannot say for sure.
One thing we learned quick, you cannot drive your vehicle around the resort. Well, you can drive it around BUT you cannot park it anywhere. You have to rent a golf cart or take the bus. The golf carts go fast. They are booked up to a year in advance. Seriously.
We didn't know that so my kids had to take the bus around. It's no charge to ride the bus and although some online reviews complained of a long wait, we never waited more than five minutes for the next bus. Plus, if it's cold or rainy out, you are protected from the elements when you ride the bus.
Home sweet home. From this angle, the bedroom is on the left, bathroom is in the middle and the kitchen/family room/murphy bed are on the right.
You pull right up to your cabin. You can unload and lock the keys inside.
A BBQ grill is outside BUT there is no charcoal. You can have it delivered for less than $10.00. There is a vast grocery list of anything you can want or need.
There is inside dining plus this picnic table outside on the front porch.
Our backyard view and a peek from the family room into the kitchen.
The kitchen is STOCKED! Plates, glasses, flatware, mugs, saucers, paper towels...everything!
Had we known, we would have taken the time to get meals to cook at the cabin, especially breakfast and dinner. The kids were so tired from playing at the pool all day and having dinner there (we grabbed pizza to go) would have been perfect. And, who wants to get up early and get all these kids ready?! I wish we brought breakfast supplies. We will next time for sure.
A murphy bed pulls down for even more room to sleep. There are nightstands, lamps and outlets too.
Yes, a bathroom is included. And the vanity is FULLY stocked with towels.
Four to six can sleep on this side of the cabin. The bunks are oversized and two toddlers easily slept in each bed. We had plenty of pillows too.
There is a hanging closet, baby play pin, changing table, iron and lots of drawers for storage.
Our pool right across the street from the 2600 block. This isn't as adventurous as the main pool that has slides and fountains but it's also not as busy so that was nice.
We didn't see any towels at either pool so pack some or grab them from your cabin.
Walking to our bus stop. There are colored loops so you know where your bus is going. The kids loved running onto the bus and grabbing their seats. The bus was ice cold inside, perfect for ducking out of the hot sun and cooling off in between stops.
