Some airfields are better than others. .... someplace such as Columbia,
CA or back country airstrips could be a lot of fun.

Try Fairbanks, Alaska. Great camping. Tell Ground Control you want
to taxi to the campground; get cleared to the northeast corner of the
field, where you taxi right into a campground. Tie down your plane,
pitch your tent, and enjoy. There's a good-sized shelter with a paved
floor, several sawbuck tables, a large wood stove, a supply of
firewood, and even some old newspaper for tenderfeet who don't know
how to start a fire. Faucet with fresh running water (though a bit
discolored); privy a few yards away.

There's also a shower room in the tower building, although it's about
half a mile from the campground.

Of course, 747s fly in and out all night, but night lasts only a
couple of hours (in summer), so it doesn't matter much.
