💡 Local Tip
Frequent visitors call ahead to confirm fuel availability and turf-runway conditions; after heavy rain, the grass strip can be soft, and the airport is quiet enough that services may be limited outside normal hours.
🚖 Getting There
The airport is roughly a 15-20 minute drive from downtown Chatham, so a car, taxi, or pre-arranged ride is the most practical way to get there. There is no scheduled public transit to the airport, and rental cars are generally available in Chatham rather than on-site. If you are flying in, arrange ground transport in advance, particularly for evenings, weekends, or poor weather.
