RV and Cabin Campground in close proximity to besches st Destin Glorids

My wife and I are always looking at ways to incorporate more camping into our different adventures so while down at the beach this summer we checked out some nearby sites to visit on our next trip. We came across this option on the Dyrt and were excited since you could see the sites from across the water driving in and it seemed to be well maintained and in a great location. However, we quickly found out that these military sites are not open to the public and you have to have to either be currently serving or a veteran to use the space. However, we were still impressed at how well maintained the area was and there is even a nice picnic/swimming area on the water right outside of the gate. It appears that along with campsites there are also cabins available. If you have a history in the service and are in the area it is well worth checking this one out.

Military Only

The gated entrance is just before the Choctawatchee Mid- Bay Bridge, a toll bridge that connects Niceville and Destin. 28 RV spaces with full hook-ups– water, electrical and sewer, and six overflow sites with just water and electrical hook-ups. Visitors have access to barbecue grills and picnic tables next to their facility. There is also a new bathhouse with laundry facilities.
