For Families

Housing
Service members with school age children will be assigned housing at Camp Humphreys. 

If government housing is not available, Service members will be issued a certificate of non-availability (CNA) and can work with local realtors to find housing off post. On average it can take 3-4 weeks to secure an off-post rental. Service members will be required to attend a mandatory off-post housing briefing before they can enter into a lease agreement. Personnel transferring to Seoul stay at the Dragon Hill Lodge (DHL) until housing is arranged. PCS rates for the DHL vary depending on room size. Single rate is $149.00 and a double is $230.00 per night. Be aware that the Dragon Hill Lodge is an MWR facility and Housing has no control over room rates. If you have questions concerning lodging or to make reservations go to http://www.dragonhilllodge.com/ or email to Reservations@dragonhilllodge.com .
