Review Detail

N.L. left this review using the Directory software: This is the third year we have stayed here. The first time was Jan 2004 and they gave you information and a map when you checked in and you had your own trash can at your campsite and the trash was picked up and a fresh bag put in the can. Since last year, they quit picking up your trash and this year the campsite trash cans are gone. We have two poodles and I always carry my little pink bags for the 'deposits' but apparently I'm the only one! The 'deposits' are all over the place. They also have three sites with trailers that look like Fema trailers. These are empty. I don't know if these are for rental purposes or what. They never had this type of thing before. As far as the campground itself - it seems to be divided into the new and old. The old part has lots of trees and plenty of space between sites. This is where you will find the travel trailers, older fifth-wheels, Class C's and B's. The new part has closer sites, pull through sites, and the newer fifth-wheels and Class A's. Some of these people seem to get the same sites year after year. Don't ask me how they get the same places since they don't accept reservations. Some campers look like they have been here for years. The laundry has four washers and four dryers. 75 cents each for both. The dryer will give you about 45 minutes of dry time. The woman's washroom has three regular toilets and one handicap toilet. One regular shower and one handicap shower. Two sinks. The door is locked and you get a code when you check in. These have always been clean although the floor needs to be repainted. The men's side I don't know about. The shower house/laundry room is closer to the old section. The campground is off base, directly across from the main gate on 98. Lots of stuff handy to this FamCamp. Commissary, BX, Class Six, Wal-Mart, Target, Food World, Olive Garden, Red Lobster, Logan's, Golden Corral, Fridays, and lots more within a 5 mile radius. Even more at Fort Walton Beach and Destin. You do hear a lot of bombs, planes, and mortar fire while here. They usually stop by 2200 hours but have went on to 2400 hours before. Even with the dog 'deposits' it is still a pretty good place to stay. People are all friendly and close enough to base. One of the greatest things is the fact that you get to hear colors every night at 1700 hours. Makes you feel proud to be an American!
