First FW trip with fuzzy boys...

[nutters4wdw......Amy 5]

We are getting ready to book our first FW trip for June and we will be bringing the fuzzy children with us. 2 poms, one is our little old man dog and his 2-3 yr old rescue buddy. We are running with a tight budget so we have ruled out the extra expense of a premium site but would be willing to do a preferred. Other than the location is the premium pet loop worth the bump? Our non fuzzy boy is coming too and the 1600-1900 loops look good for being closer to a pool, although I'm not sure which pool it is. Thoughts? Suggestions? Helpful hints? I will also accept positive affirmations and random cyber hugs. We are rolling in a 30 ft TT with a half slide and an awning if that makes a difference.

Thanks!

Whether or not the extra cost is worth it depends on what you intend to do at the Fort.

If you could clarify a couple of things, I think folks can give you better opinions.

I assume that since you're on a budget, you won't have a golf cart. Is that correct?

And, do you plan on using the dog park?

You are correct, no golf cart. Bikes or buses for us this time at least.

Probably a no on the dog park as well. The little old man has a bum leg so he tends to be a little defensive and our rescue boy is still pretty timid. Leash walks will be the norm and we have a play pen so they can have some unleashed outside time.

Well, if it's no on the dog park, then stick with full hookup. They are larger, have nice dog walks, and are close to the main pool. No need to spend extra money for close, small sites.

OK- you interchanged the words premium and preferred in your original post, but I think you are asking if the increased cost between a preferred and full hook up site would be worth it for you.

In your case, I would say no.

The preferred pet loop (300) is convenient for the dog park, but not the pool.

Since the dog park isn't a big interest for you, I would say save the money and stay on a full hook up.

You will be closer to the pool.

That's the main pool by the way- The Meadow Pool with the slide.

You guys rock. Thank you!!!!

I've only stayed in the 1600 loop. Once I find something I like, I stick with it. The premium/preferred loops definitely hav some great attributes, just not enough to lure me out of comfortable surroundings.. I don't think u can go wrong once u arrive at the fort. Although, I'm not sure I would care for 617. :)
