Bound for OSH and stopped for $3.69 gas on 7/29/09. Very nice airport, and John Poppy was helpful. (Starter bendix need some lube, and John found some silicone spray! THANKS) this is THE spot before the final push to OSH, from now on.

This is a wonderful airport. It is basically a one-man operation... John Poppy is great. He did everything to make our stay (two nights), a pleasurable experience. We had previously arranged to meet with two additional airplanes/pilots here. The airport is a good RON in preparation for launching to OSH. We'll be back!

Stopped at Portage for fuel after leaving OSH...Cheap fuel for the area, friendly service (manager let us use his computer for internet access and phone to file a flight plan). Easy airport to find and get in and out of. Definitely the preferred stop for next year!

Stopped in after reading some of the previous positive comments. I agree this airport has a good friendly atmosphere. Food was within easy walking distance. The airport makes for a good $100 hamburger stop. "The Hitching Post" bar/restaurant was open for lunch. (Great food and service, the building itself is nothing special.) It's just behind the hangers on the west side of the airport. Just don't "Google map" the place, because they say it's much further north.

Stopped here for fuel on my way from KY to northern MN. Fabulous fuel stop. Landed late afternoon and went looking for food. Found a store about a block from the airport that sold fresh Wisconsin Cheese curds--Carr Valley squeaky fresh. The Hitching Post, just a short walk across the runway was open and had a great hamburger and better service. Even a free popcorn machine. They'll even make your meal to go if you want. FBO was clean and the fuel pumps were fast.

Best fuel price around and the customer service is second to none.

This is a great place to stop even when you are not going to Oshkosh. Try it.

This is A GREAT AIRPORT to stop on the way to OSHKOSH!! John is the best! There is free cab service to the "Ridge" motel. John has arranged round trip bus service to Whittman Field if you want to be "chauffeured" to Whittman Field. I highly recommend stopping at PORTAGE on the way to the fly in!

Had an unplanned stop here due to weather and sure glad we did. Friendly folks, good fuel prices (and MOGAS for my STC), and they had a crock-pot of Wisconsin sausage cooking so we stayed to enjoy lunch too.

Stopped in the other day on my way from Indiana to Minnesota. What a great place! John is very friendly and helpful. I will be stopping here again anytime I am coming this way!
