Siletz Bay State Airport sits in Gleneden Beach, Oregon. Field elevation is 69.2 ft MSL. The airport has one runway, 17/35, at 3,297 ft. There is no control tower. CTAF and UNICOM are both 122.7, though UNICOM is attended irregularly. No ILS approaches are published here.

Pattern altitude is not published. Use 1,000 ft AGL for light piston operations unless current local guidance says otherwise. The runway lighting on 17/35 is preset to low intensity. Higher intensity is activated on the CTAF. That matters if you arrive after dark.

The published remarks also call out brush near the departure end of runway 35 and trees near the departure end of runway 17. Wildlife is on and in the vicinity of the airport. Surface conditions are not reported, so plan your landing with current field conditions in mind. There are no on-field FBOs listed, so confirm services before you go. For clearance delivery, contact Seattle ARTCC at 253-351-3694. With a single asphalt runway and coastal conditions near the field, give yourself extra time to brief the departure and arrival, especially if you are planning a night arrival or operating a larger aircraft.
