Disney's Fort Wilderness Resort & Campground
Disney's Fort Wilderness Resort & Campground is a themed camping resort located in the Magic Kingdom Resort Area at the Walt Disney World Resort, adjacent to Bay Lake, near Disney's [Wilderness Lodge]. It opened in November 1971. It also formerly contained Disney's River Country, a water park which closed on November 2, 2001.
From late 1973 to early 1980, the Fort Wilderness Railroad, a, narrow-gauge heritage railroad, provided transportation to the resort's various campsites, as well as to the nearby River Country water park.
A new Disney Vacation Club tower, Disney Lakeshore Lodge, is set to open along the shores of Bay Lake at Fort Wilderness in 2027.
