Manager Ivan Veneer is superb! We had a group of 27 pilots in 13 planes from Colorado on a June 2025 weekend trip there. Ivan was a miracle worker in doing everything we requested and offering to assist us in any further manner he could. Good airport and interesting small town with many sights to observe and activities. Hot Springs is a hidden jewel yet to be found. It sits in a valley surrounded by wooded hills with many stone outcroppings. Highly suggested! Good food, and numerous eateries.

Charming airport with one of the cleanest FBOs ever. Gotta love a place that even has signage to find the extra TP--appreciate that. The highlight was finding left over cinnamon rolls in the refrigerator that seemed up for grabs. Zapped one in the convenient microwave and OMG! Best cinnamon bun EVER! Suspected here in South Dakota it would be worth the calories and I was definitely correct! Left an honor system donation for this amazing treat. Thank you for the good stop! We'll be back.

Rick goes above and beyond to take care of visitors. Sorted out a courtesy car mix up (all my fault) with texts and phone calls on Labor Day Weekend. 3 clicks on Unicom for weather. Grass runway is a superb alternative if there is a stiff xwind for 01/19. I always plan a stop here when traveling thru the area.
