We will be on a non Disney vacation next year that will involve being in the area for a few days. Our next Disney trip is a couple of years off and will be at Disneyland, so we were hoping to visit some of our favorite resorts from the past on our downtime this trip...specifically Fort Wilderness and AKL as well as possibly the Boardwalk.
We have never visited while not staying on property and someone mentioned on a Fort FB group that we won't get past the front gate of the resorts without a meal reservation. We plan to eat at each of our stops, but just quick service and have no intentions of making a reservation while visiting.
Will we have any issues if we just let them know at the gate we are coming in for lunch/dinner or we get held up without a specific reservation? This will be a quick pass through and as much as I love the resorts, I would hate a big hassle for something so little. We haven't been since they implemented the parking fee and I wasn't sure if that may play into it?
