New moderate??

WDWMagic.com is reporting that the cabins at Disneys Fort Wilderness will become a moderate resort in the coming weeks. Never been so I am wondering what your thoughts are.

Re: New moderate??

I guess I don't understand what it means? How will they change?

NOT NECESSARILY FACT... BUT...

From what I have read, the rumor was that Disney wanted to put Fort Wilderness into a "class" Etc... value, mod., deluxe. It fits into the Moderate category due to the cabins. They are very nice, and have a lot of amenities, as does the whole resort area. I think this is old news.

Re: New moderate??

Actually sounds like a good idea, except if they raise the prices. I wonder if they are going to be revamping them?

Re: New moderate??

The cabins, at least, already seem to have a moderate price. I guess Disney is making an attempt at having every resort in a category. Moderate would be the best fit for the cabins. I would assume that the campground would be considered a value if they are indeed classifying everything.

Re: New moderate??

I think the campgrounds might be considered EV.

Whenever I check the price of them they seem in the mod pricing, but they sleep more people . . . don't they sleep 6?

Re: New moderate??

I always see them as way more expensive than the moderates. Always over $200.

Reason I say that is because I was reading about it on another board, and the info was about 2-3 years old.

right now thera are priced in the delux range. from what i have been reading, due to the size of the cabins (they are quite large) disney has no immidiate planse to re-price them to be more in alignment with the other moderate resorts. they are re-classing them to try and get more people to reserve them.
