Interesting place. Nobody home save a bunch of crop dusters (watch out, most don't have radios) and one charter pilot who showed us the keys to the courtesy car and insisted we had to go try the grill in the hotel. It was pretty good actually. 24 fuel worked fine

Loved Broken Bow, stopped on way to and from Yellowstone - first time, I arrived on weekend - airport offices were closed but courtesy car with keys was available for the taking - left plane overnight outside on the ramp, I returned the car and left the next morning without seeing anyone from the airport - my return trip, also on a weekend, I called in advance and Gary met me and opened up a hangar for me for the night ($10.00) and gave me the key and a courtesy van. 100 percent honor system - great stopover and the Arrow Hotel and its Bon-Fire Grill also are worth stopping for.

Yes, the fuel pump is very easy to use and there are two courtesy cars. HOWEVER, one of the courtesy cars is definitely not a brown Special Edition Reliant K car with alloy rims and the keys in the ignition. And although you may enjoy the ride to dinner at the hotel and frolicking about BBW in this fine automobile, IT IS NOT A COURTESY CAR. But, if you make that mistake, as I did, rest assured that these guys have a great sense of humor about your stealing their car and they probably won't call the cops. :-) See you next trip.

We stopped here for fuel and to spend the night on the way home from Oshkosh. They have two courtesy cars. The fuel pump is in good condition and works just fine. They have a nice facility with clean restrooms. The town is just a couple miles away and has several motels. This was a great place to spend the night.

Stopped in BBW for fuel. Very good price. Absolutely no service but that didn't both me.. I was looking for the price. One point.. The Off/On lever is REALLY hard to turn on. You need to SLAM it pretty hard to get it to turn on..
Response from Gary Geiselman, Secretary/Treasurer, Broken Bow Airport Authority
The fuel pump handle is like the gas pumps at your local automobile gas station. Its purpose is to energize the gas pump, zero the meter and begin fueling after the credit card has been approved. The handle is in no way "hard to turn on" and does not require slamming into place to turn on the pump. Approval of the credit card begins the transaction and signals the gas pump to begin dispensing fuel and not until this occurs. BBW continues to have a plethora of air traffic coming and going and using the self-service system with very few problems. Our listing on AirNav does show we are currently unmanned by an onsite FBO so seldom will someone be onsite to assist. Airport Authority board members are the FBO and will gladly come out to assist when needed. Just call the number posted inside the terminal bldg.

Nice place to stop in for cheap gas. If you can't find the keys to the courtesy car, call the phone # shown. Good eats in town at the old hotel.

I visited Broken Bow in mid March and had great service from the locals. I was in town visiting relatives and was able to use a hangar for a small fee. Fuel was a bit on the steep side but still ok. Nice little airport.
