No ILS approaches are published here. Pattern altitude is not published, so verify the current traffic pattern and arrival plan before you go. The published remarks matter here.

This is the kind of place where local traffic on the lake matters as much as the airport entry itself. Check the current FAA Chart Supplement for any updates before flying in, especially if you are planning a first visit or a late-day arrival.
