Just spent 3 nights at Dakota Park. Absolutely loved it. I booked this site specifically so I could watch the planes close up. I wasn’t disappointed either. Yes it can get very noisy….I’ve never heard of a fighter jet that isn’t noisy…but I knew that was going to be the case when I booked so it didn’t bother me. To be honest you sort of get used to the noise. Watching the Typhoons coming in to land but just touching their wheels on the runway before shooting back up into the sky is a great sight. We also got to see one of the display pilots doing his thing one day. Barrel rolls, super sharp turns, flying upside down…very skilful flying. We had our dog Blue with us and he wasn’t bothered in the least by the sound of the jets. The site itself is a lovely well kept site with each pitch named after different planes. They are all grass standing pitches but well drained. Michelle was a lovely hostess and she should be proud on keeping such a well looked after CL. This was my first visit to Dakota Park but I will definitely be back.
