No see-um bugs eat you up. Cable inoperative, Wi-Fi inoperative during my visit in late December. The washroom was decent, toilet overflowing and shut down for days. The washers were inoperative. The Famcamp staff in the office has 1 rude, condescending employee. The camp host was excellent! The sites are small and crowded. We found several state parks much more attractive for only a few dollars more. I like the area but won't return there again

I really wanted to give it five stars because of the view and being a Navy veteran I really enjoy the military base but the mosquitoes and the bugs were extremely bad that I had to leave a week early. I hope they can get ahead of that mosquito and pest control problem but enjoyed McDill Air Force Base!

MacDill Air Force Base fam camp is an outstanding value, family friendly, quiet, and picturesque Paradise. The regulars are friendly and the staff very helpful. We took advantage of the saver card and took a pontoon boat out for my birthday! It was cold, rainy and perfect.

The absolute epitome of the privilege to be able to camp, swim, fish, golf, shop and lay on what amounts to a private beach is possibly the biggest benefit to any qualifying veteran and their families. MacDill is akin to a private club. Go behind the gates and you feel protected, welcomed and thankful. If you're a service member and you have access and leave MacDill less than 5 stars then you need a reality check👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

It was basically TOXIC when I was there. Redtide and impossible to breathe without gagging
