Many military bases include RV parks for service members.
For those who are veterans of military service or currently serving in a branch of the U.S. military under active or reserve duty, RV parks on military bases offer deep discounts compared with costs at private campgrounds. Some also provide a place for families to stay when they attend a soldier's graduation from basic training. Whether you’re a current or former military member looking for a relaxing and cost-friendly way to vacation, RV parks can be found on bases throughout the country.
