We've stayed at the Full Hook-ups, Preferred and Premium sites (there are no Premier sites at FW). They are all nice sites. There are small Premium sites and there are large Full Hook-up sites. Now that all the sites have cable and therefore internet access (with Cable Modem from the Meadows Trading Post) I can't see spending the extra money for a Preferred or Premium site. Generally, you won't be able to reserve a Tent/Pop-up site (Partial Hookups) if you don't have a tent or a Pop-up. However, they will let tents & pop-ups in the Full Hookup, Preferred and Premium sites.
Premium sites have nicer charcoal grills and picnic tables, they also have more asphalt and less coquina (sp?) - shell filled sand. The Preferred sites have a little bit more asphalt than the Full Hookup sites, but the same picnic table and grill as the Full Hookup sites.
We've stayed in most of the loops at Fort Wilderness (excluding the cabin only loops) and the only one we didn't like is the 300 loop. It's across from the dog park and the 300 loop is usually full of dog owners. We usually don't go into the parks when we go to Disney, so sitting around the camp site listening to all the dogs trapped in their RVs bark gets annoying quickly.
One of our favorite loops is the 1400 loop. It's a Premium loop that is a short bike ride to both the Outpost and Settlement. It's a quick walk to the pool and the Meadows Trading Post. Backing into some of the sites in 1400 can be tight if you have a long Trailer.
