A friend of mine and I stopped here in our M16 Gyroplanes due to severe storms in our path. Gary (Airport Manager) and his staff made arrangements for us to be able to fit the 2 aircraft into a hangar and let us take the courtesy van overnight to a hotel. They gave us information about the restaurants and hotels, and were there early the next morning to get us refueled and on our way. The airport is very well maintained, the fuel is not expensive, the area is very scenic, and it is a great place to stop for fuel, food or the night. We greatly appreciated their hospitality, and we are planning to stop here on future trips.

Flew in for visit with 3 GA airplanes from FL. Parked on SW side of field near the old hangars in the grass away from FBO. SS pump OOS but fuel truck provided without a problem to our location. Nice field with beautiful location & great service. Spent night at Hampton, Uber not around so plan ahead for RON. There is an airport car available.

Have always enjoyed stopping in for fuel. People are very friendly and helpful. Nearly stuck there one recent late Sunday afternoon / early evening as aircraft would not start after fueling. One of the local gentleman (Hollis Babb) was kind enough to let us hook up a jumper cable to his SUV to help keep battery charged while attempting numerous starts, for well over an hour. He called a local maintenance shop (Spivey Air) to help. The owner, Darwyn Spivey, was there shortly. He ended up prop starting the airplane (210+ hp), and we were on our way. Neither man would accept any reimbursement for their time and trouble. Forever grateful for their hospitality.
