It will do! We travel this way a lot and stopped heading south for the first time. Very convenient to our camp in Maine. A little close when heading south but will be perfect when heading north as it will give us plenty of time to open up camp before nightfall. Directions are a bit misleading as the exit when heading west off I-90 is #49 not #5. Otherwise good. Cannot stress enough how...
Super CG. Fort BELVOIR is beautiful! We were on a back in on the Potomac! We were there for a meeting and did not have time to explore the base. But there seem to be lots to do on the base….rent kayaks, etc, ride bikes, hike, not to mention the close proximity to DC. The CG is unusual in that there is no host. Frankly I think they should have one. We were emailed...
First time at Postal Point. Liked it. Not FHU but convenient dump station though the wide grey collar on the dump port is awkward and did not work well for our situation. But we got it done! We woke to a short storm with rain and the field does not drain well leaving lots of standing water at sites and in the road. Also the bathroom shower had lots of mold/mildew. I can handle...
Hasn’t changed in years. Needs some tender loving care. Grass long, bathrooms dirty, directions to register unclear. Grab form on board on the left as you enter the back of the CG, pay with cash or check, then deposit in slots in the laundry. Nice laundry facility though we did not use. Super convenient to gas station and mini mart. Needs trees! Four lanes in back, middle two pull through and fairly level,...
Still one of my favorite fam camps. We have a site in the 30 amp section to the left…shady and quiet. Nice showers and laundry. Friendly staff in the office. Propane available. Biggest suggestion from me to Mwr is get a good wifi system going! Crazy that it is so poor! Adequate commissary and small exchange. Lovely views everywhere! Great places to walk the dog! We love the Asian food restaurant, Pho Wok,...
New rv park. Not quite finished. Laundry is not open yet. There are 3 loops for rvs. Very little shade on any of them. The best possibility for shade is the inner loops of Ivy and Steadfast. Loyal loop has no shade. Most sites seem very level, though we encountered one in Steadfast Loop that had some rain washout. Sites are very generously proportioned with easy access. They are gravel except for...
Still no bath house/laundry. Supposed to have the funds but nothing has happened thus far. Wifi was also in the building that housed those facilities so no wifi. We did do laundry at the navy lodge…not convenient but heh! We got it done! Small commissary, adequately stocked. The whole base looked warm and unkept since our last visit in 2019. Maybe a tough hot summer? The camp host, Yvonne, is so nice and...
Third time at this CG as we have family in the area. This time we arrived the Wednesday before the Balloon Fiesta and since reservations are not allowed, took our chances. We selected a nice dry camping site that backs up to the road near the back of the office and added our name to a waiting list for full hook up. Spent two days dry camping and then moved over to the full hook up in...
The approach to the campground is out of the way and rough. Cement pads are excellent and the sites are large. Appears as though damage to a dam associated with the lake has lowered the lake level significantly...no boat access, docks high and dry, etc. Trash was piled up around cans near the bath house despite the dumpster being 100 yards away. The bath house was disgustingly dirty...campers had left trash everywhere. Discouraging to see campers taking so little...
Super hosts in Larry and Debbie! Nice, clean park with nice laundry, nice bathrooms except the showers need a private dressing area, convenient to base amenities...superior fitness center across the road, splash park for kids, clean grassy dog park, level parking sites although a little hard to understand where to park...rigs need to park close to utility side. We were unable to hook up sewer dt the rig behind us being dead center. It would also be nice if...
(Editor Notes - the directions have been updated). Okay, let’s update this site! Directions are horrible! We got off I-25 at exit 10D, NOT exit 10-B Via Missile Road. gate two is closed...we were there about 2pm on a Thursday. Is it permanently closed? DO NOT take Randall all the way to the Famcamp dirt road...there is a low underpass and the road is uneven. Instead, enter through the main gate straight to the first Major intersection which is Old...
Tried to stay here last year but it was closed due to severe flooding. Also due to the flood, many of the amenities are new. We were able to secure a nice rv site in the shade for two nights. Full hook up. Met some lovely people camping nearby. Approaching from the east via non interstate roads was very pretty with many ranches and little towns. Texas has great roads as a rule. Campground is still a work in...
The no reservation policy has kept us away from this Famcamp in the past but we wanted to get out of Dodge for a few days over the holidays and took a chance. We were rewarded with our (only) three hour trip with one of two available sites. We loved our location (61?) as it had grass behind it and was not surrounded by pavement. The directions to get to the base with an rv are not clear. You...
Extended our stay easily to three weeks by talking to Janice in the office. She was very helpful. We were able to get into the older section under a large pine. May have to scrub sap when we get home but it was a very nice site. We have a 24 foot Navion and tow a Jeep. The site was surprisingly level. There is a building next to the office for men/women bath/showers and the laundry between. Only one...
We were going to stay at Holloman but decided on this park dt ability to make reservations AND the description in our military book said there was a tour of the Trinity site twice a year. I based my trip to ABQ so that we would be here for the April 1st tour. On our trip west, I finally looked up info about the Trinity site and found that it was 3 hours away. So disappointing! But now I...
