What Our Pilots Are Saying:

“Beautiful setting along the White River with 79 fishing cab­ins and a first-class restaurant with two chefs and a unique salad ‘boat’ bar.” Never had a bad meal in all the years I’ve been flying there. Prices are very reasonable, too. White River is a noted trout river. The associated grass strip at the resort is 3200 feet long. The folks are very friendly and go out of their way to help you. It’s not as pretentious as a ‘resort’ name would imply. Call 870-431-5202 to check on field conditions.”

“The food is great and the setting is amazing. Nestled along the White River in the Ozark Mountains. With a very well-maintained grass runway. Please note specific approach/departure instructions!”

Gaston, Arkansas is awesome. Great food with the best salad bar you’ll ever find. The restaurant is very cool inside with a view that’s worth the trip. And the landing strip is cool to fly into.
