I was there last month but didn't go to the parks. You'll probably get a quicker answer if you go to the camping /Fort Wilderness forums:

It was posted on the Camping Board earlier this afternoon, Stratman50th, and the poster got answers and already asked a follow-up over there. Thanks for the referral. Bama Ed

Looking to rent a golf cart for Dec 6 week and have been on hold for 30+ min. Just wondering if they actually answer the phone on Sundays.

It's 2020, unfortunately, and they are not online yet.

Hold times for guest services have been very long recently. I was on hold for nearly an hour to add a cake to a dinner reservation yesterday. Just hang on the line and someone will eventually pick up.

Thanks. They finally answered.

Does anyone know if the Chip & Dale Campfire Singalong is still happening? I'm seeing conflicting info: an announcement in July that it has returned, but the Disney website says it's temporarily unavailable. Thanks! (Also, does anyone have a current activity guide for november?)

In July they were having the campfire and movie but no chip and dale.

No sing along. So no chip and dale.

 

[limegreenmonorail]

Right, no Chip & Dale, just the movie and campfire right now. The November activities schedule is posted over on the Camping board.

Has anybody heard any rumblings of the Return to Sleepy Hollow event returning?

Not sure of the "event" but one of our intrepid regular Fort travelers @Teamubr reported there was in fact a sighting of the Headless Horseman last October (2021):

Not sure if its coming back but that was cancled before covid. I belive it was in the old horse barn. One of the reasons we went 4 years? Ago was to see it and it was cancled.

Just heard them talking about this on the Dis podcast last week. Sounds like a cool event. I hope they bring it back!

Doing a split stay in June and would like to maybe try the cabins for the last part of our stay (3 nights). It would be myself, dh, ds 18, and his friend. Not sure if the bunk/pull out would be okay in size for the boys though?. I remember it being a tight fit length wise for ds in bunk beds at akl and that was a few years ago. Alternate idea is 2 rooms at a mod.

 

[garneska]

I slept on the bottom bunk in 2020, I am 5’9 and thin. I fit barely. My DH is 6’2 and he did not fit. He got the double and I slept on the bunk. My opinion is 2 normal adults can’t sleep on the double in the bedroom. We did not try the sofa pull out.

 

[Tallent]

Thank you! Talked with the fam and we're going to do 2 rooms at coronado. Thank you again!

Just saw a post on another board saying the boat between FW and WL is running again as of today. Can anyone confirm or refute that?

 

[Teamubr]

I didn't see anything in the News/Rumors forum. There are a couple of DISers at the Fort now. I'll ask over there.

A friend at the Fort right now posted this. Doesn't look like the rumor was accurate.

Took a boat ride over to Magic Kingdom this afternoon to ride the train and take a spin on the Carousel of Progress. Did not notice any changes at the Fort Wilderness dock that would signal the return of the resort boats.
