What do I like better than a level site? A level concrete site with utilities that all work which are located in a normal spot, space from your neighbor, and waterfront is a plus too.

What do I like better than a level site? A level concrete site with utilities that all work which are located in a normal spot, space from your neighbor, and waterfront is a plus too.
This is a good little fam camp with minimal frills, but was our favorite we've stayed at. They were about halfway through replacing all the gravel pads with concrete, a welcome investment. It's right by the flight line, so plane noise is a certainty, but they're prop driven so not too bad. Also, if you need groceries while you're here, the commissary is larger and better than you'd think it'd be for a base this size.
45 minutes to Kennedy Space Center, 25 minutes to Cocoa Beach. It's not the most convenient, but the drive to the tourust sites isn't bad at all.
Keep an eye on the water, you might get to watch some bottlenose dolphins feeding right about 7PM. We got to see them each night we were there.

Arrival - Pay close attention to the directions on https://www.militarycampgrounds.us/florida/80-manatee-cove-campground. Also, pay very close attention to the requirements at check-in. For those who have opted for paperless registration for their vehicles, Patrick Space Force Base Outdoor Recreation will not accept electronic copies of your registration at check-in, make sure you have paper copies of all registrations.
Tips - Arrive early, there is only one spot to pull off to register with the camp host. Have all of your requirements ready to make the process a little smoother. If there are any concrete pull throughs available, get one of those. Get ready for a difficult maneuver exercise to get into your site, they're very tight and not well laid out at all. Be patient, be careful; you break it you buy it at PSFBFamCamp.
Favorite - Nice being back on base with all the amenities close at hand. Air/Space Force bases are typically the nicest of the lot. Very close to Cape Canaveral, NASA, Cocoa Beach, Melbourne, and the A1A.
Negatives - The rules, strict even for the military. The sites are outdated and in desperate need of updating to accommodate todays rigs and tow vehicles. No wifi. No place to park your TV, except for Chevron Park at the famcamp entrance, if you can't fit it in your site. Not one of our favorite family camps.

My wife and I with our dog had a wonderful stay. Very nice neighbors, everybody was so helpful for our maiden voyage. The facilities are very clean. We spent two nights. Easy hook ups. I wish they had cable but we settled for Redbox. TV channels came in very clear. My fishing experience I lost count after 10 hardhead catfish saltwater. Did not see any signs of other fish except for mullet. Still it was very enjoyable to finally go fishing while my wife watched me from our RV.
