    I have flown to this airport many times. They have a family restaurant right across the street that we go to when we fly there. There is flight training that takes place there. One thing to note is that upon landing on 7 or taking off on 25 you must back taxi to exit the runway at near the end of 7. There is also a single lane taxi from the runway to the ramp, so announce your position and intentions, looking for traffic on the taxiway.
