I am a flight instructor in the area and I can tell a few things about this airport: great airport manager (Cliff), great AVGAS fuel price, ($4.25 as I write this), great aircraft owners and pilot community, easy access to terminal building at anytime of the day or night, very clean bathrooms, Courtesy car on the field besides quick Enterprise Rental drop off service. Easy taxi from ramp to runway and vice verse. A city of history and interesting historical markers.

Nice facilities, great service. I'd come back anytime. Cliff helped salvage a bad situation. Avis did not drop off my CONFIRMED reservation rental car. Don't believe anything Avis says on their website about dropping cars at KCVB. All they gave me after I arrived were excuses. Summary -- "walkoff grand slam in the bottom of the 9th" for Cliff and the Castroville team. Avis...They're losers. I'll be calling Enterprise in the morning.

I've stopped here on several occasions because it was close to my grandchildren's home. The facilities are well maintained and the fuel has always been very reasonable.

Stopped for fuel enroute Arizona to Florida. Great stop, fuel as posted, easy in and out. Phil, airport manager, very friendly and helpful. Spent 2 days in San Antonio. Highly recommend.

Excellent experience. We arrived Sunday morning departed Monday. Enterprise brought the rental car as requested. The pilot's lounge is very nice and we had no problem entering code to unlock the door and access the computers and restrooms. 100LL is available 24/7 by credit card self-serve pump. Cliff (airport manager) answers his phone and is super helpful if you have ANY questions. This airport is very convenient to San Antonio. A great fuel stop.

Went here for 100LL today and guess what no power!! No fuel due to no electricity. Went to Hondo and got fuel there. I think I will just over fly Castroville and head to Hondo from now on it is only a few cents more.

I am a flight instructor in the area and my students and I practice at Castroville on a regular basis. The airport is very nice. The runway is well kept and the facilities are clean. However, I personally have had several run-ins with the airport manager, who regularly harasses my students and I, about not buying fuel from his airport. I understand the airport partly depends on fuel sales to operate, but this public airport is also federally funded. This means our tax dollars have already paid for our use of the airport. Why should I be required to buy fuel for the use of these facilities? This airport manager is very unprofessional, and he needs to understand this is no way to run an airport. Response from Robert Lee, Mayor, City of Castroville
Castroville does not have an airport manager on site and previously had an airport coordinator to assist with airport operational issues. If you need information call the numbers on Air Nav and nights and weekends or with a beef, call me directly. Robert Lee, Mayor 830-931-5333
