Good stop overall. Getting fuel was pretty easy, everything worked, and the pumps were very quick. Two lineman in the FBO. For reference, the weather was only readable from the east within thirteen miles.

Simple to overlook, but wonderful airport to pause at. No taxiway, but rear taxiing is fine enough. Enjoyable airport to rehearse short field and soft field takeoffs. (Runway has a natural, rolling slope)

Do not bother stopping at this location. This airport is not transient friendly. Offerings are restricted, self serve 100LL only, no crew car and 9-5 six days weekly. Closed Sunday. The single lineman is very nice and helpful. He paused his tasks to assist us fuel. Nevertheless, the manager is quite abrasive, verbally aggressive, and generally an unfriendly person. My wife felt very uncomfortable with the manner he behaved. Fly 12 miles South to KJZP where conditions are much superior. You will feel welcome there.
