Military Park - Gowen Field

I thought it was a great place to stay. Very quiet and low key. I know some have complained about the noise (next to the airport), but I didn't feel it was that noisy at all. Yes, there are flights during the day, but it's a small airport so not that active and no late night flights. Besides you're in your RV with the AC running. You do need to checkout google maps for your best entry/exit. If you rely of just the gps directions it won't work, only the main gate on Gen Manning Ave is open for entry/exit to the base.

Love it here. Air show was great! Only bad is there are so many big dogs running around without leashes on. And I have to be extra cautious with my little one. It seems lately people just don't care about their big dogs running all over the place. We will be back thank you Gowen field Air National Guard.

7 sites with full hook up next to a road. No bathrooms, we had to use the gym..we were in van w/ power but no potty. Good for an overnight in and out. No shade and would be brutal during the day if no A/C. On NG base, so very safe and comfortable. $42 a night, I would say about $20 too much. MWR was great and took my reservation while on the road.

3.5/5 - Easy online reservation. Concrete pad. For background, this review is for a 1 night stay in January. The Good: reservations can be booked online (which many mil parks do not have). Sites are paved, but not plowed in the winter. Pedestals have 20/30/50AMP (there was probably water and sewer, but not sure if they shut water off for the season and sewer would have been buried in a few inches of snow). There were 3 or 4 full-timers, which was comforting as a solo traveler, but might make peak season reservations more difficult. The not-as-good: There were no instructions on how to get there and how check in after hours. I spoke with a full-timer who pointed me in the direction of a bar...of course the young bartender and AD customers had no idea anything about FamCamp. There's no posted sign that I could notice that identifies the area as FamCamp, and therefore nothing with an opportunity to explain off-season/after hours stays. I have no idea if there is a bath house and if there is, I had no idea if it is operational in the off season. It shares a fenceline with the flightline and hangars. Which isn't too odd for ambient noise as an AD family, but may be worth knowing before booking. For a night, it was just what I needed (30AMP), once I found it.

Nice and quiet facility with 7 spots. Staff was very helpful with getting us a couple of nights while on the waiting list, which was very much appreciated! Close to the Boise area/airport and was really perfect for what we needed. Would definitely recommend!
