Lake Wawasee (01D) sits in Syracuse, Indiana. The field elevation is 859 ft MSL. No runways are listed in the facts, so plan around seaplane operations only. The airport is not towered. CTAF is 122.9. No ILS approaches are published.

Pattern altitude is not published. Use the standard 1,000 ft AGL pattern for light piston traffic unless the current Chart Supplement says otherwise. The published remarks also note a clear 20 to 1 approach over obstacles. That matters here because the field is on a lake environment with boat traffic nearby. Expect heavy boat traffic from Memorial Day through Labor Day. Do not block boat ramps. Docking areas are limited.

No on-field FBOs are listed. For current services or local operating details, contact the airport operator directly or call the field on CTAF. For clearance delivery, Chicago ARTCC is listed at 630-906-8921. Seaplane operations are prohibited between sunset and sunrise. If you are planning a first visit, review the current Chart Supplement before departure for any updated local procedures, then brief the lake traffic and docking situation before you get close.
