It's.... OK

This "campground" is on an Army Reserve and National Guard base, with the security that comes with it. Military ID is required. The RV spots are stacked next to each other, with no trees or barriers of any kind in between. Right next to a road, so plenty of traffic noise. Positives are; decent bathrooms, nearby laundry, full hookups.

Couple things to note; the billeting office where you check in is about .25 miles from the RV park. Guards at the gate did not know about the RV park at all, let alone how to direct us to it. Billeting office closes at 4pm.

Also, be aware that pricing has changed. I was charged $10 for overflow camping and $31 per night for a hookup spot.

Very clean and open campground

We have visited this place at least 3 times .  It is a dog friendly camp sight with pull through campsites.  The cost of the pull through is 25 $.  They have 30 amp/50amp available. They also have overflow camping available for 5 $.  Please beware that overflow is I. The grass area and does not have hookups.  You can tent camp in those.  If you do park your rv in the overflow there is a dump site for those. They have clean facilities on site, bathrooms with hot showers.  You can bike, walk the base.  The area is kept very clean and at night there is no noise.  At 10 camp goes silent.  They have a table and brick fire pit at each pull through. Bring you own firewood. This is a military base so don’t forget your military Id  or civil service Id.   There is a small commissary (store) near the campground, but hours vary.

We go here with our kids  and love it as it’s clean secure and close to (15min) to the beach. 

Note reservation maximum 30 days ahead.
