This airport has served both the Parry Sound community and as a passage to the north since 1979. Located just north of the top of Lake Joseph, it also offers a fuel and rest point for pilots of smaller aircraft in the cottage country area. The airport offers food from its 'Wings Cafe', an addition since 2006. This local airport also invites the community for its "Annual Fly-in and Drive-in", where activities such as ball-toss games, face-painting, live music, barbecue, Birds of Prey exhibit, etc, take place.
