Mancelona Muni sits in Mancelona, Michigan at 1,133 ft MSL. It has two turf runways. The longest is 18/36 at 3,400 ft. The other runway is 10/28 at 2,050 ft. There is no control tower. CTAF is 122.9. No ILS approaches are published. Pattern altitude is not published, so use the standard 1,000 ft AGL for light piston operations unless the current Chart Supplement says otherwise.

This is a small field with a few operational details that matter. The published remarks say the airport is closed from November through April 15. It is also closed when snow covered except for ski equipped aircraft. The runways are not plowed. Pilots must supply ropes. The remarks also note displaced thresholds and tree obstructions near the runway ends, so take a close look at the current Chart Supplement before you go.

There are no on-field FBOs listed in the facts, so call the airport operator or the field directly for current services before arrival. For clearance delivery, contact Minneapolis ARTCC at 651-463-5588. This is a turf strip with no tower and no published ILS, so plan for a simple VFR arrival and verify current field condition before departure.
