Quiet Military Family Campground

This location reminded me of the TV show ‘I Dream of Jeannie’. Located near Cocoa Beach and Cape Canaveral it is directly along the historic Banana River. Reservations are not accepted except for active duty personnel and you are encouraged to call ahead as sites are only available on a first-come, first-served basis especially during the months of November thru February when the campground traditionally maintains close to full capacity with retiree snowbirds. This Famcamp has 156 well maintained full-service sites with 30/50 amp capability and ten primitive camping sites along the beach front. Two shower houses and laundry facilities are clean and convenient to all campsites. Patrick AFB has a large PX/Commissary as well as a bowling alley, swimming pool, Class VI store, and you can eat at the DFAC. Love the sound of reveille and taps as well as the sound of freedom as the C-130's and helicopters come in and out on the nearby runway.
