Some airfields are better than others. I don't see the attraction of

your RV in a Wal-Mart parking lot, either), but someplace such as

Columbia,
CA or back country airstrips could be a lot of fun. Having actually

camped
at Columbia, I can say that we had a great time.


WYS--West Yellowstone, Montana has a beautiful on-airport campground.
Located in the trees, so no rotating beacon problem. Courtesy bicycles
for riding into town, and hot showers powered by a propane tank.
Magnificent hiking nearby too. Charge for camping was around $5 as I
recall. One of the av-rags, maybe Pilot Getaways, did a brief writup on
it a few years ago.
