Great airport for night fliers
Self serve fuel + comfortable and neat 24/7 lounge has made this airport a memorable one for me. Be sure to leave money in the box in the kitchen if you take any water bottles or snacks.

loved the courtesy car
Nothing makes a trip to such a peaceful and picturesque airport better than a courtesy car!
Was able to see much more than I planned on. It's a minivan, perfect for small groups flying in, just contribute 20$ for the upkeep and make sure you bring it back at the same fuel level and it's yours for the day. Just call them in advance and reserve it to be sure of having it on the day you fly there.

Amazing Airport loved the staff
re: The Phoenix from the ashes
How much did they pay you for this? LOL! This airpark is anything but....
Never again......
Almost hit a herd of deer. Some basic security fencing around this field should be mandated. If that wasn't enough a farmer was plowing an adjacent field and I had to avoid a flock of seagulls (not the band lol). I've landed here before years ago, it was bad then. I will not return for the sake of my life. Nothing there or in the area for me. Plus those cross winds from the SW suck big time.
Restaurant is CLOSED Permanently
Previous restaurant area is now a pilot / visitor lounge with coffee and soft drinks to purchase.
Open M to F 0900 to 1600. Irregular on weekends.
Grass Runway. CLOSED
17/35 ts closed permanently.

Formerly an airport
According to Wikipedia, the runways were closed in 2004, and only a helipad remains.
The graveyard of the Atlantic
Repurposed!
Hastings Field is no longer an active airstrip ... for fixed wing craft. There's a pretty shiny looking heliport there now though!
Former DEW Line station
This was a Distant Early Warning (DEW) Line station until 1963. The runway outline is still visible.
Ice runway
This airport looks like it's a seaplane base, but it's actually a seasonal ice runway.
Great new service on the southernmost point in Canada!
Contact admin@peleeislandadventures.com or visit www.peleeislandadventures.com in advance to reserve a golf cart for the day and they will pick you up for free. Great way to spend a day on a beautiful island. Tour Canada's first commercial winery, www.vinvilla.com or enjoy awesome food and great lakefront views at the historical Stone House 1891 craft bar and kitchen.

Reply to @cessna1504lyfe: Also another thing to add, an AWOS is available here on 122.55.
Not sure why it's not listed in the CFS.
