Wow. Some of the worst service ever! After filling up and spending the weekend, we asked for our plane to be towed out of parking. They wanted $25 to do this! I have never seen an FBO in all my flying history that charges you to bring your plane up front for you. It's a shame such a cool town has to have such a lousy FBO.

Great service all the way around. The tower controller, lineman, front desk all very friendly and helpful. Facilities still look new, well maintained, very clean and comfortable. Easy in and easy out. Definitely a great place to stop.
