Last time I stoped at Crystal River I promised myself I never would again. Well weather made me turn back and fuel up there again. Note to airport manager. Your office should not take up half the FBO. It looks like he took what was a pilot lounge and made it his own. There is no way to check weather. They have no internet but have a DTN station but it's at a desk you can't use it at too low with no way to pull a chait up to it if there was a chair in the place. When you go in they treat you like you're bothering them. Note to self: don't bother them again.

We landed at this airport after hours. After hours operations at CGC are a problem. You can get out of a coded gate, but you will not be able to get back in. There are no instructions of how to obtain the code after hours and no phone number to call posted on the gate. The only thing posted is a threat stating "Airport Under Surveillance, " "Terrorist Risk High". Please!! As far as service, I found it to be very lacking. The front desk worker was condescending at times and not very eager to be of help. He was eager to get the $8 overnight fee. I did not purchase any fuel because it is far higher than surrounding airports. X35 15NM to the North was $2.80. Parking was also a problem. I parked in the FBO area and a gentleman (Non-FBO worker) that happen to be there told me to go all the way down to the end. That is about a half of a mile walk that is not very pleasant with dive gear. In the future, I will only stop here if it is our destination.

I have to agree with the last comment posted here. My friend and I landed in CGC on Feb. 21, and had the exact same parking problem, we asked the unicom where we should park, and been told we can park wherever we'd like, when we chose an empty parking spot next to the FBO, they said its reserved, and than when we taxied to the next one they were impatient and said we should just go park farther down (all of that, of course, with a running, costly, engine). When we got into the place and asked for a nice place to have lunch they pointed us to cross an active grass runway towards a next door dairy queen, which is not exactly ours, nor I would guess anybody's first choice for lunch... There was no Internet connection and hardly anyway to check the weather for our next leg of flight, not to mention coffee, the pilot shop mentioned earlier was very very poor and overpriced, the service was in one word- BAD. Will not recommend stopping there unless under different management.

Before a recent trip to Florida, I consulted AirNav comments on this FBO, and they were positive. I wonder what changed? We arrived in the early afternoon and taxied around trying to determine where to park, trying to read the signs where NOT to park and finally shut down only to find the FBO people sitting inside oblivious to our arrival. Then, and the next day when we took on fuel (which is much higher than surrounding airports) they acted like they were doing us a favor to fuel the plane, then on top of that charged a 10 dollar ramp fee for overnight. I'm certainly not stopping there again.

In the past few days I needed to go to KCGC twice. My experience as a pilot and as a customer was great. Since you land the people from Crystal Aero Group give you directions to park your airplane and this is only to start. The customer service that I receive was exceptional and the place is very nice maintained with a very good pilot shop. If this airport is in your route, take a look, you will be very glad to been there

I was on my first solo cross country from St Pete to Crystal River. Upon landling at Crystal River, I decided to take a quick break before returning. I went to do my run-up and had a mag drop of over 350 rpm with a backfire on my right mag. They were awesome in helping me cleanout the spark plugs right away so that I could take off with no mag drop and not end up in the mid-day Florida turbulent weather for my return trip. I can't thank them enough for the help and saving the day on my first solo cross country.

Flew in here for lunch. Called on Unicom for directions to park and was told to pick any place. Went to Dairy Queen and had lunch and came back with no parking or ramp fee for a 172. Great experience for a little airport.

Quick fuel stop. Helpful and attentive. Superb facility. A good stopping place.
 
From Dominick Buccola on 02-Dec-2007
Great and friendly airport, we flew there to eat at a little restaurant called "The Olive Tree". Located a three-minute walk north thru the main gate. Try the GYRO, its worth the ride, and they are open seven days a week. The # is 352-563-0075 of the restaurant.
