Customer Reviews
Situated between a pond, a wind sculpture, and a walking trail. A dog park would make it even better. The pads are lengthy and plenty wide. The exchange and commissary are just a few minutes away. Tornado shelters are close by also.
McConnell AFB FamCamp I There are 10 pull through spaces in FamCamp I, full hookups, picnic table and fire pit at each pad. No problem with 30 amp hookup for the week we were here. There is a run/walking path, fishing ponds, lots of space and pavilions in this tucked away oasis near the Outdoor Rec Office. Occasionally a refueler comes or goes from the runway but I was surprised by how noise level was low. I enjoyed watching the big birds do touch and go. The facilities are easy to access. The Dining Facility is great and open to all. We loved it here during our week visiting family on Wichita. Lovely setting and peaceful, well maintained site.
Cement pads with full.hookups in FamCamp 1. They've added 10 additional sites since we last stayed there. Small lake for fishing, covered pavilion, and a nice play area for the children. Real nice!
I am enjoying my time at the McConnell AFB FamCamp. The cooler weather makes this part of base a beautiful and peaceful paradise. The people at Outdoor Recreation help to keep the area clean and inviting, with nice activities to pass time during a stay. I prefer taking long walks and enjoy the quietness that nature provides, so I cannot comment on other activities that I know McConnell Outdoor Recreation offers to it's guests or base personnel.
Great camp for a couple of nights. There are only a handful of sites currently however it looks like they are building more. Great trail for running/hiking/biking. a few ponds to fish in, a couple of showers in the mens room, a laundry room charging $1.5 for wash and same for dryer. Tornado Shelters are rad. sites are flat and level.
