Kevin -

Don't dispair! The only shortage of camp spaces is on the OSH 'approved' grounds....

There is a family farm behind the red barn over by the ultralight area (about a 200' walk') that is unpublished, and ALWAYS for rent at about 1/3 the EAA's rates... We have been staying there for years....

I am planning to take a 40' motorhome again this year - but we usually get into the ultralight area because we know the people who run that area... I also have a bunch of friends who have been working there for years and have spaces reserved in the main grounds...

If it was not for camping by friends - I would absolutely stay in the farm behind the red barn... it is WAY closer than even the EAA grounds... EAA has been trying to buy the farm for years unsuccessfully so they can keep people from staying there...

If you look at the grounds map - it is right behind the ultralight area...
