Comments

Very nice airport with two excellent grass runways and one paved runway.  If you want in introduction to grass, you could not ask for a better place.

The airport is currently between FBOs.  100LL is available via a credit card pump.  Not sure about access to Jet-A.  I saw both a 100LL and Jet-A fuel truck on the field.

Camping avialable at the airport.  Nice hotels ranging from Marriot to Super 8 are a 45 minute walk or short car ride away.  I have overnighted here multiple times, staying at the Best Western and Quality Inn.
