  • Nothing smells ate Fort Wilderness. Its a magical place. There is no dirt, no dust,no one cries, employees are perfect. We have been there many many times with our kids and now grandkid. Its our favorite campground, but, bring your wallet!! We bring easy prep food and lots of it because eating at Disney is very pricey. Actually, the restaurant at FW is one of the cheapest hotel eateries on the Disney property(and delish). We also eat at the Mc Donalds on Lake Buena vista Dr, and off property. I know, you just wanted to know about the smell of horses, but I had to put a few cents in. BTW, don't forget the pony rides. My granddaughters favorite pony is Chip!! Have a blast!

    Take more days off. Especially your first time, you won't want to leave.


    It will be our 3rd time going...you are correct...hated to leave...first time there we had 6 days, just past November we had 10 days. We went through the campground on the way to another park, and then took the boat over to Magic Kingdom..All the RV'ers there asked what site we had and what rig we had. They seemed bummed that we didn't bring our rig down from Montana. They weren't the only ones!!!

  • Only place I've ever smelled the horses was right where the trail crosses the road as you enter the campground.
