It was an easy 90 minute trip to Goldsboro. John was stationed here as a reservist for 12 years before we were married. His responsibilities at the time were with construction equipment operation. He was looking forward to the opportunity to show Jen and me all around and to check out the campground (FAM camp).

It was thrill to watch several F-15 Eagles take off and land.

The campground was shady and had about 10 concrete slab back-in full hook up sites. They were all very level and in a quiet area away from the runways. The rate is $15/night and cannot be reserved in advance. At the time there were four rigs staying at the campground. There was also a bathroom and shower facility.
It was well maintained and we would certainly stay here. The base offered a nice workout facility, golf coarse, and movie theater. The was also a BX (like a small Walmart) and commissary (grocery store). We did our grocery shopping and found everything that we needed. You need to be retired military or active duty to stay at the military campgrounds (or the guest of someone staying there)
John said there had been many changes made to the base. He enjoyed his duty while he was stationed here and seemed happy to see it again.
Looks, and sounds, like a great little RV park and you sure can't beat the price!!
ReplyDeleteWe haven't been there yet, but will have to add it to our list of military campgrounds to visit. Good pictures!
