RWY 27

Home Acres Sky Ranch is in Lake City, Michigan. The field elevation is 1,246 ft MSL. It has two turf runways. The longest is runway 09/27 at 3,830 ft. Runway 18/36 is 2,550 ft. There is no control tower. Pattern altitude is 800 ft AGL, which puts the pattern at 2,046 ft MSL.

No ILS approaches are published here. CTAF is 123.0. UNICOM is also 123.0. The published remarks say UNICOM is unmonitored. Low intensity runway lights for both runways are activated on CTAF. The airport has no on-field FBOs listed, so plan on confirming services with the airport operator before you go.

A first-time pilot should pay close attention to the published runway notes. There are displaced threshold markings with 3 foot yellow cones. The remarks also call out tree obstructions on the approaches to 09, 27 and 36. This is a turf field with no snow removal, so field conditions matter. Call the airport manager before arrival if you need current surface information. For clearance delivery, the Chart Supplement lists Minneapolis ARTCC. Keep the published pattern altitude in mind. The field sits well above sea level for a Michigan strip, so performance planning should be part of the brief.
