February 3, 2026I’ve got a trip here on 13 March and I saw the notes saying it was a private airport, so I emailed the airport manager and talked to Mark. He confirmed it’s actually a public county airport - not sure what happened with the earlier notes or comments on here, but he was super nice and I’m excited for my trip next week.
