Youngstown ARS FamCamp

Youngstown ARS FamCamp is located on the Youngstown Air Reserve Station in northeastern Ohio. To access the FamCamp, you must enter through the base's main gate with proper military/DoD identification. The installation is relatively small and easy to navigate. The base primarily operates turboprop aircraft (likely C-130s) with limited flight operations, making for a quieter camping experience. Once you've cleared security at the gate, personnel can direct you to the FamCamp area.

Youngstown ARS FamCamp is available to active duty military personnel, reservists, National Guard members, retired military, 100% DAV, and DoD civilians with proper identification. Valid military ID or DoD credentials must be presented upon check-in. As with most military FamCamps, eligible patrons may sponsor guests, but the sponsor must be present during the stay. Priority may be given to active duty personnel during peak periods.

Youngstown ARS FamCamp offers level, well-maintained campsites with full hookups. The small campground has approximately 15 sites that are nicely manicured. While the installation is relatively small, campers have access to a BX (Base Exchange) and several other base amenities. The campground provides basic facilities for a comfortable military camping experience, though amenities are limited compared to larger military installations. The quiet environment is ideal for those seeking a peaceful stay, with minimal aircraft activity from the reserve base.

Reservations for Youngstown ARS FamCamp are typically made through the base's MWR (Morale, Welfare, and Recreation) office. As this is a small FamCamp with only about 15 sites, advance reservations are recommended, especially during peak travel seasons. Contact the Youngstown Air Reserve Station directly to inquire about availability and to confirm the reservation process. Have your military ID information ready when making reservations.
