Campers should come prepared, as there is no potable water on-site; water must be treated or filtered from nearby natural sources. While Somerset Road remains open year-round, winter camping requires self-sufficiency and proper cold-weather gear. The site is managed under dispersed camping regulations with a 14-night maximum stay in any 30-day period. The location provides opportunities for wildlife viewing, fishing in nearby waters, and exploring the extensive trail systems of Green Mountain National Forest. Shep Meadows, a former beaver pond where moose are occasionally spotted, is accessible from the campground area. The primitive nature of Somerset Airfield appeals to experienced campers seeking solitude in Vermont's mountain backcountry.
