    Osprey Cove RV Park

    Mayport NS, FL

     osco01

    There are two FAMCAMPS at Mayport NS: Pelican Roost is the short-term campground located right at the river's edge near the ship basin. Osprey Cove is the long-term campground and is located in a former part of the housing complex on the south side of the base. Minimum stay is 30 days. Note that use is restricted to military personnel only.

    We didn't stay at Osprey Cove, but did take a walk through while staying at Pelican Cove. Sites 31-34 are the first you see as you enter the campground.

    Date of visit: Dec 2009

    osco03
    Across from them are sites 47-50. The campground has a very pleasant feel to it, with well-maintained grass and lots of trees for shade.

    osco04
    At the far end of the loop are sites 5-11 which back up against the woods. At most sites RV's or trailers must back over a raised curbing to reach the parking area.

    osco05
    Although the actual parking pad is not paved, there is a cement patio beside each site, along with a sidewalk from the car parking spaces in front.

    osco06
    Osprey Cove is intended for fully-contained RV's only - there is no bathhouse. Nor is there a community building such as at Pelican Roost. However, for good weather gatherings, there is this gazebo in the center of the campground.

    osco07
    Sites on the north side of the loop ar best situated for easy satellite setup. Here are sites 27-29.
