Just to chime in the check in time at the hotels is pretty meaningless anyway in terms of when you can check in. It's more about when they should have the whole resort turned over for the next people arriving. If its a massive check/out day they may take longer but will get people in as quickly as they can.

But, if they do officially change the Fort check-in time to 3 pm,  I fear that will push back the time that campsites will ordinarily be ready.

I can't think of one time that my campsite has not been ready by 1 pm.  I can think of a lot of times when I have checked in before 3 pm at a WDW hotel, and my room was not ready.  If they officially change the check-in time, I would think is because they anticipate slowing down on having the sites ready.

Or since they wont actually tell people to get the heck out when they are supposed to they are leaving more leeway time for dealing with those? dont know.

Not Fort related but a similar situation.

We rented a cabin at Blue Springs State Park.  It is a lot cheaper than the Fort for the cabin. 

Weekends they require a 2 day minimum, unless one of the days is already booked, then you can do 1 night.

Their check-in is at 4, and check out is 11, and they only have 6 cabins to clean!
