What a great experience! Rent the red bug and spend the night at one of the many hotels on the island.

Flew into Jekyll for a couple of days and had a great time. Richard and Dan from Red Bug were great. Dan even picked us up from the airport and gave us a ride to the Clarion Resort, then rented us a 4seater Red Bug for the price of a 2seater (they were out of 2seaters). The bike trails around the island are great. This is a great airport in a great location with great people.

Flew here for just a Saturday day visit. Easy walk to the historic district. Richard at the FBO (no fuel) was very friendly. Normally there are electric cars to rent, but this day was very busy. We visited here for dinner back in April, and Richard gave us a no-charge car to use for our trip over to the beach side for dinner. Great place to visit!!!

A pilot's paradise...What a great place to fly into for the day, weekend or week. This island is a real gem with the airport directly next to the intra-costal waterway and only 1 mile from the ocean. My wife and I flew in for a weekend trip and had a fabulous time. You can stay at the historical Jekyll Island Club Hotel (1-800-535-9547), which was the private seasonal getaway for the likes of J.P. Morgan, Rockefeller, Vanderbilt, Pulitzer, etc. You can also fly in for just lunch, as the hotel will pick you up for the 1-mile trip or simply walk and enjoy the beautiful island area. The hotel offers murder-mystery weekends, Jazz Festivals, along with biking, golf, swimming, tennis, croquet, touring the historical district and just plain relaxing on the scenic porches that surround the Jekyll Island Club. If you want a perfect fly-in for your EAA or pilot group...This is the ideal venue for a few hours or all week.

Flew the Rocket into Jekyll Island, en route home from NC, a great stop! Richard Van Iderstyne, owner of Red Bug Electric car rentals offered us a FREE car for the day, simply to encourage more pilots to drop in. Seem the locals tried to close the airport but concerted efforts kept it open. Lots to see and do including the Jekyll Island Club hotel which offered a special weekday 1/2 rate, the Rah Bah for some great seafood and the lighthouse, beaches and historic homes make it a great stop. Thanks again to Richard for a free ride in his very cool electric car "Filo". We will be back!

Dad and I flew the Seneca II to Jekyll for the first time. GPS approach to runway 36 broke out @ 1000' with great views. Red bug electric cars are right on the field, quiet and comfortable, Richard took great care of us. The Island Club hotel was a treat. A step back in time, people playing croquet dressed in white, a relaxing serene place. We were treated with old world courtesy and will fly back ASAP.

One of my favorite fly-in vacations. Nice to find an island not over run by development (yet). High marks to Clayton at Red Bug Motors, he went out of his way to make our stay enjoyable.

Friendly airport with nice facilities. The Jekyll Island Club will provide transportation but the other hotels will not. You have the option to rent a Red Bug (2 to 6 passenger fancy golf carts) as described in other comments

Flew down to Jekyll Island (09J) with 2 of my friends for lunch today from Hilton Head, SC (KHXD). Great place (no services at the airport, however). We walked to the Jekyll Island Club Hotel (about a mile) and dined at Cafe Solterra. Their deli sandwiches are fantastic! Chose not to rent a Red Bug this time since our stay was short, but definitely the way to get around if you don't want to walk or bike. I'll definitely be back!

This is a great little airport. We flew in for the weekend and having Red Bug Motors (google them, they're online) there at the airport really helps. There is no fuel, but plenty of tie-down lines and chocks. Just be aware that SSI is very nearby and on another freq amd BQK is fairly near too; we got a 7-minute void time from FSS due to traffic to one them on the way back home. The lock code is back to the CTAF freq according to the airport manager.

We came in for the Jazz Festival and had a great time. The folks at the airport are some of the nicest we have ever met. We rented a Red Bug and drove it all over the island the three days we were there. It just doesn't get any better than this for a fly in destination. Stop in and make sure to sign the guest book so they don't close this wonderful GA location.

Great little airport with friendly folks. Only the Jekyll Island Club Hotel will provide transportation to and from the airport. We stayed at the Day's Inn in an Oceanside room for $89. Rented a Red Bug for transportation. Daily rate is for the RedBug is $50. Prefer this airport and island to the nearby St. Simons (a much busier airport with many bizjets).

Had an enjoyable experience at Jekyll Island. Landed at 09J and took our bicycles out of the plane and started the ride at the airport - the bike trail goes right by it. Numerous biking and hiking trails on this beautiful island. We biked 50 miles in two days. One paved trail on the north end is slightly elevated and goes through a swamp - awesome. Motels are an easy ride from the airport. The historic district is a must see and is within walking distance of the airport (3/4 mile). There is a place to eat on the dock across from the historic district. We'll be back.

Visited Jekyll again today for a weekend lunch getaway. Previous posts are all spot on concerning the good times to be had here. Red Bug Motors has added more of the little electric cars to their fleet, so availability is not the problem it was earlier this year. Go to redbugmotors. Com for details and pricing info. Also, their toll free number is 877-635-9330.

We fly our 172 into Jekyl every few months for the weekend, it is fantastic for a relaxing weekend or sunday brunch. This weekend we got a great surprise electric cars for rent by great people, Richard and his wife Lynn. These are small electric cars not just golf carts and the price is very reasonable. Great idea.

The State is fixing up the passenger lounge, the code is still 543. They say they'll soon have electric cars available. Great place to fly to for Sunday brunch or a picnic at the resort.
