HOUSING INFORMATION

Single and Unaccompanied Members
The Coast Guard complex features Thrun Hall, a 127 room barracks facility. It features a galley, four television lounges, two recreational rooms and a weight room. Each room is cable and telephone ready.
Thrun Hall mainly houses personnel attending class "A" and "C" schools. Due to the limited number of rooms assigned to permanent party personnel, E-5 and above should anticipate locating housing in the community. All E-6 and below must obtain a release from Thrun Hall from the barracks manager, BM1 Dale Robinson, before attempting to live off-base though.
