1jh-2 Skylanes flew in 11/18/12. Due to some clouds missed the ten o'clock breakfast. Best hospitality ever, Tigran the general manager heard us land, gave us a ride to the village and opened the restaurant for the six of us. Fantastic experience, go there and say hi to Tigran and Teresa, restaurant manager.

The village of Stovepipe Wells is an easy half mile walk from the airport. The Toll Road Restaurant has limited hours. Breakfast 7:00 to 10:00, Lunch 11:30 to 2:00 and Dinner 5:30 to 9:00. I suspect these hours may change as the season changes and suggest you call ahead.
