Sweet! Nice to find this long format of what I was looking for
Thank you for watching and saying that! It means a lot. I was contemplating uploading a second video with more places to write/work-and I may just do it now!
I really enjoy your videos you do a great job! My son and I love Disney everything and I started watching with your Hilton head videos!
Thank you so much for watching and for telling me that-it means a lot! I have so much more planned.
Did you have to ask for the crib? And are the curtains black out? Much appreciated, great content! Going soon!
Thank you for saying that and for watching! The curtains are close to blackout and it was very dark for the kids. The crib was not provided by Disney, though they do provide pack n plays. We wanted a crib for our littlest one, and used a company called Baby’s Away (not sponsored). They had the crib delivered and ready for us at our room, and came and picked it up at check-out-it was super smooth. I hope you have a great trip!
@thedisneyworlddadblog I don't have a room number yet tho so does the company just deliver it right to the hotel?
@thedisneyworlddadblog I have so much anxiety about my 2 year old girl not sleeping in a pack and play. She is currently in a crib at home lol
@@christinak.1357 They can deliver it to the lobby and you can then call the lobby for them to bring it to you!
@@thedisneyworlddadblog perfect 😊
We were there this past weekend!
Awesome! Did you meet Pluto and Chip ‘N Dale?
I just wanted to let you know that I did check out the Disney’s Hilton Island resort in South Carolina that you just shared on TH-cam today, and I spoke with the front desk and they said that it takes 45 minutes from Savannah so if I wanted to come to that resort, I have about to fly into Savannah Georgia intake either There’s two Shuttle companies there is a nearly Island Shuttle, or there is a Polite Shuttle that can take me from the Savannah international airport to that location so once again if I’m gonna come into that area, I would either have to get off Amtrak in Savannah or I’ve had to fly into Savannah and then go about an extra 45 minutes to get to that resort
We love The Fort, I’ll admit it’s not for everyone, but if you’re looking to go a little cheaper this is the place. We go the week before Halloween, our son has a Fall Break and it’s usually the week we go. We tow our camper down from Kentucky and stop around Atlanta for the night, and it’s a shorter day to The Fort. We’re going back October 2025, we had plans to go this year but we had some other things come up, in our small business. But hey that’s the thing about owning a small business, things change. We love it and we usually do less park days because we love it so much. We usually hit Epcot, Hollywood Studios, and then do Mickeys Halloween Party. Next year will be our third time there and I don’t think we’d stay anywhere else down there. If we didn’t take our camper we’d get a cabin, because there’s so many things to do there as opposed to other resorts.
Thanks for sharing all of this! I think the week before Halloween would be perfect, for the decor and the weather around the Fort. Our stay really made me a believer in this place and my kids keep asking about it! Hoping you have a great trip in 2025!
its not the chuckwagon its actually the breaking bad van
Love this place!
SAME! Thank you for watching.
Oh really no more coffee 😢
@@christinak.1357I am hoping it was only temporary-but I sure looked forward to getting my coffee there.
@JustinChavez13 I called and asked lol. They said They only put it out in the a.m now from 6 to 8 lol. But you can get all you want free pods for your room. Lol
@@christinak.1357 that is a HELPFUL tip! Weirdly, I used to get it in the afternoon, but I guess the morning makes sense.
Great video!
Thank you for watching! I appreciate you saying that.
What building number is this? We will be there this weekend.
This is building 24!
Beautiful space. Love to play games when it rains at that eating table.
It is beautiful! Love to read while watching it rain from the same place.
Look forward to hearing what you think when Island Tower opens.
Thank you for saying that! I hope to be there staying there in the near future!
In terms of d23 predictions I hope they finally announce more about and start construction on that avengers e ticket ride that they have been promising us since 2019 for California adventure
Me too! That ride is certainly most intriguing, especially after we got a look at the ride vehicle at Destination D23 last year!
@@thedisneyworlddadblog I’m disappointed they canceled the original version where you’d fly your own jetpack seat though! But hopefully this multiverse one is still good! Most rumors say it’s basically a trackless version of Indiana jones which sounds fun
The best video I seen on this resort. Thank you
I really appreciate you saying that; it means a lot. I’m going back very soon to look at the new room renovations, so watch this space!
@@thedisneyworlddadblog I am hoping to go there next spring so your video was so helpful and the first to mention that neighboring village and the bakery
Have the best time! And the bakery is a must-do for us. I will explore even more of Shelter Cove on my next visit and report back.
The pool bar was changed about 2 years ago. It got worse. They changed to having only pre packaged food that they heat up versus making it fresh. It's Disney cost cutting. Just like they changed trails end restaurant to a quick service and removed some of the food. But overall it's still great because you can go to other places on Disney property to eat... Like taking the boat over to Contemporary and eating lunch there.
The change to prepackaged options is not great; we obviously couldn’t make any substitutions on any of the food, and what we did get was not good. And Trail’s End was also good not great but it had some of the essentials. I agree that the proximity to Seven Seas Lagoon dining options makes up for it.
✨Outside✨
What loops have the new cabins so far?
i am not entirely sure-this was the model unit by Pioneer Hall. I will see if I can find that information!
🤢 where's the wilderness style... Ugly outside and inside.
I understand the sentiment. I just got back from a stay in the original cabins and loved it and already miss the log cabin look. It would’ve been nice to retain that look but modernize the interior
I think you might want to put the cell away now with 3 little ones and enjoy your vacation. Tuck a hand towel in your backpack to wipe seats off....slow down and enjoy😊.
By the way, if you do early check-in and stay in cabins, your cabin will be ready and you can use your magic band or phone to go directly to your room. You can take internal buses to the front of the cabin loop instead of waiting for cast member.
This is helpful! We had checked in and our cabin was ready but we wanted our golf cart first. Do you usually take your luggage with you on bus straight to cabin? And if so, do you head back to Reception Outpost on bus to get your golf cart (assuming you rent one)?
We would take the bus if we needed to otherwise we would take the car since we would have one. But we have been camping with rv last couple times.
That’s good to know. If we don’t have our car next time we will likely go straight to cabin, and then I’ll head back to snag the golf cart (if we get one).
If you love arcades and love the Fort you can take the boat over to Wilderness Lodge and use the arcade there and explore. The Disney transportation is great. And yea, food at the pool is not good. Ever since they removed the all you can eat buffet at trails end, food quality is not good anymore. With the app though, you can order a family meal of fried or grilled chicken that you can only order in the app. By the way, they won't provide towels because it's mostly campers and rvs which people can start walking away with.
I do like the arcades and specially the one at WL-that’s a great tip. I didn’t know they had a buffet at Pioneer hall; do you remembered when and why it closed down? And that makes sense about the towels, and we just showed up ready to have fun and were expecting them to be there!
They got rid of buffet because Disney says guests wanted a quick service. Don't think that's a good reason or if that's true. I think it was good the way it was.
Got it. i would certainly prefer a buffet to the current options.
It's great to see what really happens during a stay. We love the Fort. Even when it rains it's fun. Just go with the flow. Also, the comfort stations have washer and dryer.
Thanks for letting me know about the W/D, I didn’t get the chance to check out the comfort stations and that’s so helpful for our next stay. And thanks for watching! I agree that it’s fun just to go with the flow, even the rain wasn’t so bad and it ended quickly.
pov: 🍔
good luck!
Thanks! You too!
Thanks for the video, you are doing a great job, Goodluck on your channel I'm sure it's gonna do great, 🙏. Keep vlogging!
Thank you so much! I really appreciate you saying that!
Sounds like you were in a bad mood from the start.
Consider watching the second video from the trip, and the third when it drops! I enjoyed the cabins.
Thanks for your honest review!
Thank you for saying that! I’m glad it was helpful. I will be publishing my second video from the trip today if you’re interested!
Is that cabin open for anyone to tour? I'd love to see one in person before booking a stay. Looking at the video I think I prefer the old rustic look over modern. The new ones feel more like a Hilton and not camping to me personally.
Yes, there’s a DVC kiosk outside Pioneer Hall (at least on weekdays). I agree that the rustic charm is gone, which is a shame, though I am very impressed with the modern, updated feel. If only they would’ve added some logs to the exterior, or something that reflects the existing cabins!
So excited for my first stay here in July!!
How exciting! They have newly renovated rooms to explore-I’ll be uploading a new video with those updates soon!
how? you need a reservation all the time right?
Hi! The answer is yes and no. APs need a theme park reservation to enter a theme park before 2PM. On weekdays after 2PM APs can enter any park without a theme park reservation. On Saturdays and Sundays, a park pass is required for APs at Magic Kingdom even if entering after 2PM; this weekend requirement does not apply to EPCOT, AK, or DHS. Hope that helps!
Great review! HH DVC is now on my must do list. 😊
Thank you! Let me know when you do go-it’s such a hidden gem!
This is fabulous!!! I can’t wait to see more videos
Thank you so much!!
😊😊😊😊

Also a good choice!
