Camping at the Fort "Must haves"

[topiney]

Thanks so much for this information, this will help us so much. It seems as though we have similar travel routines and as you mentioned with traffic around DC I was very concerned about traffic issues causing us not to be able to connect with reservations. Thanks again!

If you are coming with a pop-up or hybrid, search out the bunk end covers that can be added over your existing canvas. I've had only two complaints ever with FW: 1) the dreaded pine sap that seems to pour out of every needle over some sites, and 2) weekend only campers that make it impossible to stay ten days in a row during the fall. I can get booked every day but one random Friday or Saturday that tailspin my trip. I haven't found a solution to problem number two yet, but the after marketer bunk end covers protect your original canvas from the pine sap very well. We also always bring our pop up canopy to help protect our picnic table from the same situation.

I can tell you that for us, the solution is to BOOK well in advance. As soon as you think you MIGHT want to go, go ahead and book it. Deposit is only one nights rate, and can be refunded if your plans change (well up to a point that is.)

Love the squirrel in the bag.. If you want to feed the rats in cute costumes what do they like best?? I know they love anything that's left on the picnic table..... If I bring a feeder will they use ? Or laugh at me ?

We bring a bags of peanuts. They seem quite satisfied with them. Tried dried corn (ours at home love them) but the Fort squirrels didn't care for it.
