About the Location
The camping area is on Wright-Patterson Air Force Base, an active U.S. Air Force installation (which is pretty cool, and also means this is not a traditional campground)
- Camping sites are dry. There are no water hookups, electrical hookups, or dump stations available for RVs or campers.
- Generators and propane grills are permitted in designated camping areas.
- A mobile RV pump-out service is being coordinated. Details, scheduling information, and contact instructions will be posted once finalized. Any pump-out services will be arranged directly between campers and the service provider.
- Campers should plan accordingly. Additional camping information is available in the FAQ section.
- Camp site locations may change due to field conditions, operational requirements, or event needs.
