LAPOINT sits on Drummond Island in Michigan. Field elevation is 580 ft MSL. This is a water airport with three published runways. The longest is 10W/28W at 7,000 ft. The other water runways are 01W/19W at 3,600 ft and 14W/32W at 4,500 ft. There is no control tower. CTAF is 122.9.
No ILS approaches are published here. Pattern altitude is not published in the facts. Verify the current Chart Supplement before you go. The airport is listed as Class C in the supplied facts. Confirm current airspace and any local procedures on the sectional or with the airport operator before arrival.
There are no on-field FBOs listed. Plan to contact the airport operator directly if you need current service details. The published remarks say the manager can be reached by email. That is useful if you need local coordination before a water arrival.
For a first-time pilot, the main thing is to treat this as a water landing environment with multiple runway alignments. Check the current Chart Supplement for any noise or local operating notes before flying in. Verify the surface conditions, traffic flow and any seasonal limitations with the airport operator before departure.
