For Racoons Creek Recreation Area: So the base is very nice. Great views. Close to everything. There芒鈧劉s even a dog beach! Laundry was big & good prices. Did not utilize the bathrooms. Great walking for dogs. Spots are mostly concrete & level. If it rains it芒鈧劉ll get muddy. They have recycling which is very nice.
With all that being said, the way the do their reservations is very strange. It芒鈧劉s first come first serve or it芒鈧劉s not? You can reserve, you can芒鈧劉t? You have to move to dry camping after 2 weeks or you don芒鈧劉t? Very confusing. Unless you芒鈧劉re in the 芒鈧渁nnex芒鈧劉 area, everything else is very cramped. Most areas they really pack you in there. It芒鈧劉s a top up if we芒鈧劉d go back or not.

For Racoons Creek Recreation Area: The campground was fine, but checking in was PAINFUL !!! It was the slowest, most inefficient we have ever encountered . The woman taking our information was rude, and slow at her job. Her supervisor wasn芒鈧劉t much better. It took us over an hour to get through the process. When we tried to provide feedback to them, their response was, 芒鈧 every base does it differently , and we are doing you a favor for allowing you to stay here.芒鈧 I hope the rest of the base functions better than this office.

For Racoons Creek Recreation Area: Quiet, safe, friendly. Lots of things to do in the area (Busch Gardens for one冒鸥鈩⑩) plus a great military base with some great amenities (beach, boat rentals for two冒鸥鈩⑩毭芭糕劉鈥). Sites are shaded and decent. Bath house was spotless!! Highly recommend.

For Racoons Creek Recreation Area: Great post and amenities. The camp sites need work. I stayed two night in dry camping area. It would help if the sites were mark rather than driving around to look for a space. My second night I was wakened up at 2330hrs by the camp host telling me I had to turn my generator off during quiet hours. I checked the rules and they only allow generators to run if the temperature is below 45 degrees. The first night it was below 45 degrees. It芒鈧劉s basically impossible for a all electric Class A batteries to make it through the night even with just the refrigerator running. Shame on me for not reading the rules, shame on management for not saying something at check in since he saw my coach. We decided to leave at midnight. First time I芒鈧劉ve dry camped and could use the generator.

For Racoons Creek Recreation Area: They take limited reservations one year out and expect lots of snowbirds. All the reserved spots were full. The rest of the spaces are first come, first served. Don芒鈧劉t expect to get full hook-ups. We were in partial for a couple of days and had to negotiate to get full hook- ups. We were told that the rules were such that we would be required to go to dry camp after two weeks, then partial hook-ups for 2 weeks before being allowed to go back to full hook-ups again. We elected to leave after 2 weeks. MacDill is a beautiful base with a well-stocked commissary and Exchange. The campground is a 10 minute drive from the commissary and front gate. There is no diesel fuel for sale on the base. Expect to hear reveille at 6:00 am, a siren at noon, colors at 5:00 pm and taps at 10:00 pm. Also expect to hear gunfire from the nearby range. And bring mosquito repellent.
