💡 Local Tip
Lake-effect weather can change quickly here, especially in fall and winter; even on a clear forecast, check for fog and crosswinds off Lake Michigan before a VFR arrival. Also, summer weekends and Tulip Time in May bring extra local traffic, so plan fuel and parking early.
🚖 Getting There
The airport is a short drive north of downtown Holland, with US-31 as the main nearby highway. There is no on-site rental car desk or regular public transit, so arrange a taxi, rideshare, or local pickup in advance; rideshare availability can be limited. Parking is available for aircraft and visitors, and Amtrak's Holland station is about 10-15 minutes south if you need rail connections.
