Comments
Downtown
I called ahead and asked about the parking at the Airport. Got great instructions from the airport staff on parking and fuel. There are two tiedown spots over at the fence and no fees at the city terminal.
For a downtown airport I would rate this up near the top. Stopped here twice for overnight, on the way to and then from Oshkosh and will stay here again because of this facility.
