We stayed on the Dredger Key RV park. Overall a great RV place with decently large spaces. We spent 2 weeks here and it was great. There is free wi-fi but it keeps choppy. The laundry rooms are coin-only, the coin change machine was empty the entire time we were there. Some idiot was putting food in the bathroom trash cans, so some random animal was pulling over and making a mess. Some random tips: If you want to do the Duval Crawl, go to the Navy Lodging on Trumbo Point (looks like standard military lodging/prison with "Fly Navy" on it). Request a room at the Truman Annex then walk from there to Duval St. The Truman Annex is 24/7 and it has the 24/7 mini-shoppette on it. If you want to grill out, a cover is required by the rules and the wind. Do a party boat sea fishing tour. Everyone caught some fish. The crew will fillet the fish for you and recommend a place to get them cooked.

Had a nice stay here on the waterfront (Sunset View Park). A few tidbits: Staff and hosts were friendly and helpful. Restroom / shower (N end) needed more custodial and maintenance attention. It's unsecure and non campers use it as well. Tiki bar next to the base marina doesn't take cash. The base marina rents boats, but your boating safety credential must be in their database, so call ahead for details. Parked at Trumbo Point lot (outside the security gate) then walked into town. Displayed campground tag on dashboard. Higgs Beach is nice with FREE parking / restrooms / food. Straw Hat Beach at the Truman Annex is nice, but didn't see any amenities. Recommend a visit to the Marina at the Boca Chica part of the base. There were plenty of spaces here at this time. A note about insurance for travel trailers / pop ups. Have proof that your rig is covered. Many insurance companies extend coverage to towed equipment while it is attached to the tow ball (or accidentally breaks away). Once you park it in between two $100,000+ Class As and drive away, it has to be covered.

Sigsbee - RV5 - Great location, no disputing that. One-third the cost of local RV resorts, if you can find a spot. Packed in like sardines which is fine, if you're coming to Key West, you're not coming for the RV resort. Camp hosts are friendly and accommodating during business hours; not available after hours to police the park. Only issue we had was active duty partying after quiet hours (0130) and that was only one time. NEX/Commissary/ITT/little gym/sports fields right across the street. MAKE SURE TO FOLLOW THE DIRECTIONS ON THIS SITE IF YOU'RE TOWING LONG. Alvin in the front office was AWESOME. Love those sunsets and ocean breezes. Overall, good experience.

I was not aware of the name change from Sigsby/Trumbo Point RV Park to NASKW, neither was the camp host or people in the office. Have been going there regularly since 2015, this was the first time I have stayed in the boondock area on Trumbo Point. They reduced the number of spaces this season, not allowing use of sites near the Coast Guard Base. Some said this was due to interdiction operations the USCG has ongoing to and from Fort Jefferson. Needless to say it was busy there 24/7. The mini mart at Trumbo has basic food and beverages. On Sigsby Island, where the main RV Park and Marina are located, there is a commissary, exchange, gas station (diesel too), and 2 large coin laundry facilities. A water/dump site is also located in the middle of the park. At Trumbo, about 12 sites have water only, no power or sewer. However, there is a water/dump station and a small laundry room. Staying at Trumbo is a great way to test your solar/wind/and generator equipment. TV and satellite reception were very good. Lots of RV'ers using Starlink.

This was our first time in Key West FL since we live in CA. (It's a long way to go for an East Coast Ocean view campsite.) We can't say enough good things about the NASKW RV Campground; (Sigsbee RV Park). The Camp Host (Mark) was so helpful and spent the extra time and effort to ensure our Campsite and accommodations were perfect. Since we arrived late due to traffic, Mark was very accommodating and quickly met us at the RV parking area and escorted us to our site. He helped with parking, and gave us very thorough explanation of the facilities etc. since this was our first time in the area. The Staff was very helpful on check-in the next morning and clarified many logistic issues that apparently were incorrect given in the reviews etc. Yes you do have to fill out lots of paperwork etc but that's a normal procedure for most Military installations. I would like to clarify the reservation system; 1. If you book via the https://hmsnvreservations.dodlodging.net website, You receive the site that you booked on those dates! We did a 5 month booking in advance since we were traveling 40 days on the road and had to lock in dates for our route. 2. Many reviews (older now) stated that when you first arrive you might be placed in a holding area for up to a few days before you can get into your site. NOT true. This might have been an issue prior to the reservation system but no longer. 3. This was one of the main reasons why I only booked for a few days. We are in a 2019 Newmar RV which is basically controlled by electronics/Solar etc and I did not want to run a diesel generator all day to keep the wife and 2 small dogs cool in AUG. 4. Booking with the reservation system is the only way to secure you have a full hookup site on the dates you have selected. 5. If you don't use the reservation system then it will be a random event if you can get a site during off and on season. The Amenities/Facilities are fantastic for the price you pay! For what we paid during the week would have cost us one night in the Keys at many of the local RV resorts. Granted you must be a Military affiliate to be able to stay at this location but our service is being rewarded for the 20+ years we spent in the Military. As some reviews stated best to go to the Base family Ticket office right next door to purchase discount tickets for various activities in Key West. Some Favorite attractions were the THE KEY WEST BUTTERFLY & NATURE CONSERVATORY and Key West Shipwreck Treasure Museum. Additional information: https://www.navymwrkeywest.com.

Very nice place. Close to everything. Staff very helpful and friendly. No complaints there at all. Note: If you need an Epass or ID better stop at Boca Chica Base before going to the campSite. Bought several tickets for places in Key West at a very good discount. Personnel at Boca Chica base very friendly and courteous and fast. The Epass is good for all military facilities in the Key West area, excellent !!!!!!!! Recommend you contact the campsite before arrival and state your ID situation and guests, they will advise of you are OK or need to stop at the base. I was not aware of this and had to take the guest to Boca Chica for the ID but it was very smooth, had known we would had stopped there first. I did not had any dogs with me but saw several ones around, I recommend you call ahead and educate with their rules. Do recommend it !!!!!!!!!!! Thanks

I have stayed here many times in the past and never had a problem with the rotation or fact that its rarely full in summer. However, now they want everyone to make reservations online through DOD Lodging which is a nightmare IF you can get someone on the line. Trying to make a reservation 6 months in advance is a very frustrating task. They have stopped the mandatory rotation, and everyone has a different story about why or what is happening there. On my last stay the laundry room and restrooms were dirty and over half the machines were out of order. I spent my time in there picking up trash only because I did not want the kids or dogs going through it.

We arrived late afternoon , we were helped to our spot and told to check in the next morning . After breakfast we went to check in we were told after a long process of papers and more papers that our dogs were not allowed. We have two very friendly and well behaved Akitas. We travel with them all over the US and never had a problem. We were told we had to leave which was crazy because our reservation stated that we had two dogs and no further questions were ask. The most dangerous and aggressive dog the Chihuahua was not on the list. After a long back and forth we were allowed to stay till the next day. I did not realize the military would not let their military dogs onto the base. They are on the list. Someone really needs to get a clue. A dog is not dangerous. The owner is. Well behaved and cared for dogs are not a problem no matter what breed. Our dogs were attacked twice by small dogs without any kind of provocation on their part. This is not the military way. Shame on the base commander.

This was our first visit to Key West and with the simply crazy prices out in town for RV sites, any military campground in Key West is an outstanding deal. After staying in a dry camp, ocean view lot for a week we were able to move into a full hook up site. While it was the 2nd row from the front, it didn't bother us at all with still great views during the days and of course sitting at the waters edge in our chairs with drinks to watch the sunset was just spectacular! Campground hosts were friendly and helpful, the office staff (Alvin & Dean) were great to work with. Many places to eat close to the RV park and of course many different tours are available downtown. The only negative is the base does not check ID cards at the Sigsbee gate when you first enter. From time to time there is a security vehicle parked there, but that is rare. With military housing, a school and a gas station available, I would think security should at least check everyone who drives onto the base. Security does drive through the RV park and on base, but it seems anyone can just drive on the base, buy cheaper gas when it is available or take a walk along "our" beach. We will be back for sure next year and hope to stay at least 2 months.

Feb 2022 - Sigsbee has been a favorite place for us for many years but this year we are to a point where we are probably not going to return any more. The incompetency of the office staff and the Gestapo attitude of many but not all of the camp hosts is at an all time high. As things are currently being run I really do not recommend this location to any one any more and it breaks my heart to say this because we really have loved the place and the people that we have met here. Unless the commander and the MWR director are able to drain the swamp in the camp grounds office and get the place running like an MWR facility should run, many many folks we know will not return. I would bet you that none of the people in the office even know what MWR stands for and I find that very sad. There are so many examples of why I am saying this that I don't want to use up that much space and time but I assure all of you that I am not some disgruntled ticked offed camper with a chip on my shoulder. I do feel however that there used to be a time when the camp hosts used to welcome guests and not spend their day looking for issues to harass the campers about. They are so petty about some of the things they jump on people about it is just ridiculous. I believe that the numbers of campers in the camp ground bears out what I am saying also, because I have never seen so few people in the camp grounds this time of the year ever. February is normally one of the busiest months down here and this year they have never been full even though the office will tell you otherwise. I have counted the empty sites almost on a daily basis and the dry camp has had at least 25 to 45 empty sites since January and this is very unusual. I really hope that the powers to be wake up and see that the office managers at Sigsbee are not doing what they were hired to do and get this place straightened out before it is ruined. People like myself that really love coming to this place will only tolerate so much incompetence and dishonesty before they give up on Sigsbee and find other places to go. I hope and pray that MWR at Sigsbee finds a way to return to caring for it's retirees and vets and active duty as they should because they deserve it.
