Little Rock Air Force Base Famcamp, AR

Stay Date:  November 2010
Our Rating:  BAD – 6
LRAFB FamCamp We had mixed feelings about this campground; it was fairly easy to access, on a nice base with good facilities, and inexpensive ($12).  On the other hand, it had enough against it that we don’t consider it a place to return to.  The 10 full-hookup sites with 50A were all taken (they don’t take reservations), and at least 5 of them were long-term residents.  The remaining sites were pull thrus, 30A and water only, and had concrete pads.  The pads were wide but not long enough to leave your tow attached, although the guy behind us did and semi-blocked the road.  The patio area was deep pea gravel, which made walking in it a chore, but there was a nice table.  Our view was of a ramshackle trailer, complete with tarp cover, chain-link kennels, and lots of junk plus at least two cars.  No cable TV or WiFi, but our Verizon cell and Aircard worked well.  Imagine our joy when at 7:00 AM on Monday morning we were treated to reveille played loud enough to rattle the windows.  We’ll pass on this location in the future.  Military or DoD ID required.  Little Rock Air Force Base Famcamp

  1. Keith and Brenda, Lover you Blogs. Now you gotta give this a little break. We stop twice a year while traveling, for $12 a night, it's not bad, it's good. Earlier this month we stopped, it looked a little cleaner than last year. But, same problems: crowed 50amp sites all full, had to take the back row. I leave my tow vehicle hooked up in the road, still room for others to pass. Yes 7am reveille is annoying, but we got a good nights rest. Keep up the good work. We'll be following your footsteps in 20 months.
