Availability

The Temporary Lodging Facility (TLFs-All American Inn) is the main lodging facility for families PCSing to the joint base. The TLF (Bldg 2786) is located on Mitchell Road.

Amenities

Each TLF is equipped with a small eat-in kitchen, living room with sleeper sofa, bedroom and bathroom.

Reservations

Most PCS-in families (all with children) will be assigned to the TLF. You should have reservations; in summer, you must have reservations. TLFs are severely limited during the summer months due to high turnover of personnel. PCS-in families are usually allowed 30 days of TLF; this may be reduced to 20 days or less during the summer months.

During the summer some VOQ/VAQ units may be converted to TLQ "suites" - two rooms separated by a bath with no cooking facilities other than a microwave in the hall. The Billeting staff will make every effort to ensure you have temporary lodging on base.

Cost of Temporary Lodging (TLE)

Military members are fully reimbursed for temporary lodging for a maximum of ten days only, during the PCS process (in & out combined). Military members can choose the "most expensive 10 days" to file for TLE. At McGuire, the maximum TLE allowed is $105/day. Other than these 10 days, military members draw BAH. Check your BAH rates so you are fully aware of the cost, over time of temporary lodging. Cost of lodging for military members is based on what temporary lodging facility you will be occupying (regular or family style) cost ranges from $39.00-$41.50.
