The thread on Fly-In Museums worked so well that I thought I would
pose this question to the group.....

Can anyone offer some nice fly-in campsites... along with the features
and accessibility?


Both Death Valley airports (CA) have camping.

Stovepipe wells is a bit windswept and there is no shade, but
its only about 100 yds from the end of the strip. Good restaurant
nearby. Bring tiedowns. Only 3 'proper' tiedown spots, so bring
things to dig into dirt in case spots are full.

Furnace creek has more shade. Campground is about 1/2 mile
from strip. I've camped on the field, but you're not supposed to.
Another good restaurant & fancy hotel if you get bored with
camping. Plenty of space at airfield, probably enough for 50
planes & it's seldom full. Most people are day trippers. Bring
tiedowns to rope plane to wires set in the asphalt.

Spring is very pleasant, but watch for winds which can get
savage (hence comments about tiedowns).
