The Fort Wilderness Resort and Campground has been a staple at Disney World since (nearly) the very beginning. While the campground was planned to be an opening day attraction at the Vacation Kingdom, construction delays pushed the campground back slightly. It actually opened about 6 weeks after the rest of Disney World on November 19th, 1971.
Fort Wilderness
Even with that scheduling issue, over the last 50+ years, Fort Wilderness has become a favorite for guests who want to capture a part of the great outdoors during their Disney World stay, with many returning year after year. That has, in turn, led to some interesting traditions developing within the confines of the campground, including a new(ish) one regarding golf carts.
