Example of a Camp Site at Somerset Airfield Camping Area

Nothing too impressive, and with limited privacy, but for big group gatherings, probably not half bad place to camp. There is a nice new pit privy in the area, and it's near the Deerfield River. Not my choice for camping with so many alternatives around, but it's there for those who want to use it.

Somerset Airfield Campground

An open field area with several campsites you can camp in for free up to 18 days. It is similar to an area up at Grout Pond (see yesterday's photos), or even the camping areas at Six Nations Horse Camp in Watkins Glen NY.
