Not a bad place - nothing fancy at all. Winds get a little weird I think b/c of the proximity to mountains and the Hudson River Valley. Nice people, didn't really seem to notice us as transients though. Cheap gas which is nice. Surprised that they didn't have a weather station other than local AWOS. No PC or internet. Quick stop is fine though.

Nice little airport with usually cheap self-serve fuel. Adjacent golf club has Sunday brunch. Shuttle service available to Old Rheinbeck for the summer airshow.
