From Tom McIntosh on 04-Nov-2011

 
  We actually drove to Mt. Rushmore from Denver, but stopped into KCUT this afternoon to "check it out" for consideration of a future visit. This is one of the nicest small airports we have ever flown OR driven to. We echo the comments left by previous AirNav commenter. This place is great!!

  Mark and Shannon are great! We flew in over Labor Day weekend for a 3-day backpacking trip in the Black Hills. Mark dropped us off and picked us up at the trailhead in his personal vehicle! Service that is above and beyond, we will be back.

  Mark and Shannon were a huge help when we landed in Custer after diverting due to t-storms situated over Rapid City. They got our plane quickly into a hangar and us into town (and back in the morning!), and gave us some good recommendations on where to stay and eat during our overnight stay. We will definitely plan to stop there again whenever we are passing through the area.

  Very friendly staff with great facilities. After hours access to FBO with AC, lounge, toilets, shower and wifi. Camping on grass beside FBO. Reasonable self service fuel.

  I camped overnight at KCUT on Jun 28. Shannon was very friendly the facility was first rate. She even offered to help me push my plane over to the fuel pumps, but I decided it was easier to start up and taxi over there. Very nice place and friendly folks! Highly recommend a stop there if you are in the area.

  We arrived for the 4th of July weekend and the service was absolutely outstanding! We arrived just before a thunderstorm hit the field and I was offered a hangar, which I took, and kept my plane there for the duration of our visit. I think $25 per day was more than fair for the peace of mind it gave me. We were doing a bicycle trip up to Mt Rushmore. On the last day of our trip, Shannon, from the FBO, picked us at our motel in Custer in her pickup truck, which saved us the 2 mile ride to the airport. How can you get better service than that?

Response from Shannon Stites, Custer County Airport
Thank you everyone for such gracious comments. I was pleasantly surprised when another customer pointed these out! I greatly appreciate all the feedback we can get. Mr. Hunt, you will be happy to know that per your suggestion, I added chairs to the bathrooms for people changing. We had plenty of room and they look great! Thank you for the suggestion. We shall continue to strive to provide the best service and facility we can.

  My wife and I were in Custer with our C170B for most of last week, and although the management has changed, the service provided by Shannon and Mark was top notch. They are just getting their business up and running so all the support activities weren't in place. But they made up for that with a great attitude and willingness to help. After a night outside in the weather, we put the airplane in the hangar for a very reasonable price. Good people and we wish them well!

  We stopped for a short visit to Custer and to get fuel on our way out west. This is probably one of the most accommodating and friendly airports I have ever encountered! When a storm came through they pulled our plan into hangar and had it pulled up front the next morning for out departure. Several folks were camped out on the airport property. Inside the terminal was a shower and complete facilities. What a great place to stop!
 
From Richard Theyerl on 01-Jun-2010

 
  Flew in for a long weekend. We were met by the friendly owners who knew that we were coming and waited for us to arrive. Hangar fees were very reasonable. Upon my return to the airport I discovered a leaking sump valve. The mechanic was out within 15 minutes and had me ready for takeoff in under a half hour. Mechanic's fees were VERY user-friendly. Did I mention that all this happened on Memorial Day? I will definitely be back to this wonderful FBO.
 
From Paul Cobler on 13-Mar-2010

 
  In early March I was delivering a 172 to Pasco WA. I was enroute to Rapid City for the night but weather closed and I was unable to shoot the approach. I diverted to Custer. It was after 9pm when I got there and no one was around. After topping off the airplane I called Brian at home to see if I could get a hangar for the night. Without hesitation he got dressed and came out to the airport to assist me with a hangar and anything else I needed that evening. He also provided me with a ride to the hotel and offered to pick me up in the morning to bring me back to the airport! Very nice FBO, clean and comfortable! Would also like to add that I have never had that good of friendly, prompt service ANYWHERE I have ever been in my years of flying!! Brian, YOU ARE THE MAN!!! If it weren’t for you I would have been in a very bad situation that night! I would highly recommend making KCUT your overnight/fuel stop if it’s along your way!! Rest assured, you will be very well taken care of!!
