Disagree with good reviews. This was a fuel stop miss. Read fine reviews and thought it would be a good place. It was not. Busy traffic which is good. Didn't get much CTAF communication and had to go around after announcing every step of the pattern. Taxied in. No services offered. Headed to self serve. Fine. Went inside and desk attendant never looked up. Fine. Not the place to stop, though.

Very friendly FBO with good service. JT and Wendy made us very comfortable and treated us like family while we were here for check rides. Pilot lounge was comfortable with a shower, TV, and recliners. Snacks are fine (bring cash) and restrooms are clean.
