Short Stay Recreation Area Joint Base Charleston

First time coming here this summer. I open my window at the gate to be greeted by a «what are you here for?». Ugh. I was like well that was extremely wonderful greeting. I told her we needed a day pass. She went back into her shoe box and my 8 year old daughter said «awkward!!!». She came out gave me my receipt and went back on her phone like I had interrupted her.
The beach was clean. Picnic grounds clean. Your not allowed to to be in the pavilions unless you pay $ 125. So even if it is raining you have to use the regular picnic tables. Also if no one is using or renting the pavilions your not allowed to use them. You will be fined $ 125. To me if no one is renting them why can’t people use it? I would understand of it was rented or reserved that they would have priority.
The bathrooms were a little run down but a lot better than the last time I went here 2 years ago. We didn’t stay a night so I don’t know what the rentals look like now.
Wish the customer service was better. They are working in the service industry. their job is to serve.
