Has anyone used a Strongray tent at Disney's Fort Wilderness

He wasn't eaten by the Alligator, just pulled under the water. The cause of death was drowning.

Many camp sites prohibit you from using structures or trees for hammocks, let alone these. Disney would not want someone to do this for one reason: liability. After a child being eaten by an alligator, they don't want someone to fall to their death due to being suspended in a tree. If they allow this, some walrus will come in and make two trees fall together.

I don't know their policy on this but I'm willing to be a dollar to a donut that you are going to be SOL when it comes to this plan.

Interesting... Do you own one of these? If so, how well does it work, can you put a lot of stuff inside, advantages, drawbacks? I viewed the setup vid, and it seems like it'd be nice for boondocking where there's no level ground.

I had to look it up to see exactly what it was...WOW, that's pretty cool. Tent's have come a long way. Hope you get your question answered..:-)

I wouldn't count on being able to use one at Disney, whether they allow it or not. I don't think any of the sites we've ever stayed at in the Fort has trees situated in such a way that such a tent would work. You'd actually have to setup the tent between sites, not on the site's pad where it should be.

You'd have to go through the campground and find a site that would work for you, I doubt Disney Cast members would know if there is one that would work.

Very interesting looking tent! I don't know the answer, but my guess would bexpect they wouldn't allow that type of tent. Good luck and enjoy Disney!

X2. Call and ask the folks at the Fort. Headind down in a few weeks. We love the Fort!

No idea on the tent, just wanted to say you have the neatest flood wall murals and it works great for me while my wife is in the Quilt museum. We do this for a day trip while camped at Hillman Ferry. LBL. I usualy find folks very happy to help on these forums. I once got it for saying Destin instead of destin fl.
