Leadville is getting fancy; they have a new terminal building, very spiffy, fueling is now out of a truck, but the AVGAS prices are still very reasonable. Great service. Amazing Scenery!

I had the wonderful opportunity to fly into Leadville during HAATS training out of Eagle, and I have to say, this was on the top of the list of places I've been in CONUS. Mike was genuinely friendly and professional. He hot spotted the courtesy van for us, fueled us while we were in town getting lunch, and was more than accommodating in his second profession (his words) of amateur photographer. :) This has been on my personal bucket list for years, and I was thrilled that the experience went beyond my expectations. GREAT FBO!!!!! :)

Flew into Leadville for a weekend visit. Excellent folks at the airport helped arrange Hertz rental car. Fuel was $1/gal cheaper than most other places. Would suggest landing there early in the day before crosswinds set up. Leadville has amazing mining history and many of the mines still have structures. There is an excellent 12 mi bike/hike trail, and bikes to rent in town. Great fun.

Always great service at Leadville Airport. We were on our way with a courtesy van in minutes for an early breakfast in town. The staff is always helpful and friendly, and the gas prices can't be beat.

I contacted Bob at Leadville-Lake County Airport on Saturday prior to my arrival on Sunday (January 1st). Bob was so helpful in making rental car arrangements and giving up a little of his "day off" to stop out at the airport after we landed. I would rate his effort as a perfect 10! They stored my airplane in the hangar (20 bucks per night) and Bob plugged it in the night before my departure. It doesn't get any better than the customer service I received at this airport. I'll definitely be back again!

N8163F landed here Dec. 18 and departed Dec. 20. I could not have asked for better service. Not only are fuel prices excellent, my aircraft was hangared for only $20 a night and that included an engine preheat the day of our departure. The town of Leadville is a wonderful, quaint, beautiful destination. I look forward to returning in the Summer for some hiking.

Great fuel stop, in my C414. The self-service fuel facility is great: it allows large quantities to be authorized on a single credit card transaction, and the hose is nice and long. The guys both came out to help me with fueling, even though the temperature in the AWOS was -6 C and it was snowing slightly. After a fill-up of fresh coffee for my thermos, I was on my way. Very highly recommended, on a day that is cold enough for your airplane to deal with the 9900 ft elevation of what apparently is the highest public airport in the US!

Flew into Leadville for the Leadville 100 Mountain Bike Race. Gas $3 a gallon less than Aspen. Courtesy car and car rental are very easy to access. Got my certificate and a coffee cup. Density altitude makes departure a little challenging, but airport location on top of the hill is a big plus. Great experience!

Overnight at Leadville on July 1st. Both Bob and Mike were friendly and helpful. Thanks to Mike especially for his help. He even refunded the gas money for the gas we put into the courtesy van. When we arrived all the hotels in town were booked solid. Drove 23 miles to stay in Copper Mountain resort. Beautiful drive and beautiful place. What a wonderful experience.

Leadville is a beautiful place and an airport worth patronizing. The airport manager showed great customer service and the fuel price was much lower than what I pay in the northwest.

Today I checked another item off my aviation bucket list. Every aviator is aware of Leadville's place in history. While there is no restaurant on site, the service and friendliness of the FBO is second to none. Michael was able to regale us with not just aviation lore; he enlightened us with why he takes personal pride in representing Leadville. After listening to him, had I not other obligations, I would have stayed for a couple of days. While I live on the east coast, I want to spread the word that this is an airport worth altering one's route to visit.
