Canadian Lakes Airport (0C5) sits in Mecosta, Michigan. Field elevation is 960 ft MSL. The airport has one runway. Runway 18/36 is 3,800 ft of turf, so plan for a soft-field surface and check the field condition before you go. There is no control tower. CTAF is 122.9.
No ILS approaches are published here. Pattern altitude is not published in the Chart Supplement. For light piston traffic, use the standard 1,000 ft AGL pattern unless local procedures or current ATC guidance say otherwise. The published remarks also call out displaced thresholds on both ends, with lighted cones marking them. There are tree and fence obstructions near the approaches, so give yourself a careful look at the runway environment before landing.
Runway lights operate from sunset to sunrise from April through November. There is no snow removal. Deer are reported on and near the airport. Departures fly runway heading to 1,500 ft MSL for noise abatement. If you need clearance delivery, contact Great Lakes Approach at 269-459-3344. When approach is closed, contact Chicago ARTCC at 630-906-8921. No on-field FBOs are listed, so verify services with the airport manager before arrival.
