Comments
Good runway bound by two busy
Good runway bound by two busy roads, so sight picture is interesting. Runway appears shorter than it is. Glider port with paved runway and taxiway located immediately to the north closer to the pass and wind generators. Don't mix them up. Self serve fuel and nice pilot's lounge. Good restaraunts and decent hotels a few blocks away, easy walk. I overnighted at the SureStay. Check out Kohenes Country Bakery, a German Bakery. The selection and quality of goods is awesome. I'd return for the bakery alone. I beleive they are closed Tue/Wed, so plan ahead.

Adding to the comments below...
I mostly agree with the comments below i.e. a few good restaurants a few blocks away and if a railfan, a great museum too. However, the glider port, aka Mountain Valley (L94) is only a few miles south east of TSP. I have found those gliders will meander over the various hills/mountains around and some distance from the TSP area, so stay vigilant.
