We got in early--well, late on Sunday and they put us in one of the big cabins for no extra charge! What a great way to start. Monday morning we checked in to campsite 1516, which we love. I have the extension cord and the box fan, thank goodness. Bless you, bless you, bless you for thinking of that. It is WET and it is hot and it is humid. I think it's been running in the upper 80's lower 90's, and the humidity has to be equally high. And then it rains inches every afternoon. I have my mallet, sticks, any thing I could rig up to hang off the tarp so it will drain where I want it to and not co

I've put these on my list to do in the morning! Great ideas.

So...even at the tent site I could have enough electricity that if I can find my extension cord in the morning I could bring a box fan and that would be a good thing? I'm assuming you found NO breeze or not much. What about bugs. And how hot was hot?

Okay. Look for shade. Will do. Have our own towels: check. Very exciting to hear that sometimes you get let in early. I'd love to just set up the tent once! Please keep the advice coming.

Hi Fort Fiends, You have been such a great source of information! Fiesty booked us at FW. We are tenting and have a 4 day park hopper with meal plan and water park, 1 sit down meal a day. We = me, the momma, and my 11 year old daughter. We did Yellowstone in a tent two years ago and loved it, so both of us wanted to do DW in a tent, too. I think it's going to be hotter than Yellowstone though! And probably no bison in our camp. Will you give advice about anything I'm missing, what I should do upon arrival, where we should ask to put up our tent? I think Judy was suggesting the 1500 loop mi

I've been following this bug thread. Any updates? We will be there June 17 -21 in a tent. Do you think I should get a mesh house (cheap Walmart version?) Myself and my 11 year old daughter. I think we are both bug magnets!
