Oscoda County/Dennis Kauffman Meml is in Mio, Michigan. The field elevation is 1,032.8 ft MSL. It has one runway, 10/28, which is 3,001 ft long and asphalt. There is no control tower. CTAF is 122.9.
No ILS approaches are published here. Pattern altitude is not published, so use the standard 1,000 ft AGL for light piston traffic unless the current Chart Supplement says otherwise. The airport sits in northern Michigan country, so plan for wildlife on and near the runway. Deer and birds are specifically noted in the published remarks.
Runway lighting is available on 10 and 28. PAPI is also active on both ends. The published remarks also say the PAPI on runway 28 is unusable beyond 6 degrees right of centerline. The office is unattended, so call ahead if you need local help. The on-field FBO is Oscoda County Dennis Kauffman Airport. Fuel grades are not reported in the facts, so confirm what is available with the field directly before you go. For clearance delivery, the published remarks list Minneapolis ARTCC. Use the current Chart Supplement for any other local procedures or restrictions before arrival.
