I absolutely love this place. My boyfriend and I did our AFF here with experienced instructors who made us extremely comfortable. The owner, Cathy, is both a master rigger and a pilot and is knowledgeable about every possible question you could have about this sport. There are almost always coaches and instructors available for anything you want to learn and jumpers of all experience levels make this their home DZ. The drop zone itself has a pretty wide landing area, bisected by a runway, and it is kept clean and mowed. The packing tent is large enough for several rigs to be packed at once and there is a nice restroom facility complete with shower. The office/manifest area has souvenirs and equipment for sale and plenty of gear to rent (free for AFF students). It is located in the middle of town, less than a couple miles from restaurants and very near to the interstate. It is also next door to the fire station, so you know emergency services could be close at hand if need be! The staff is ALWAYS friendly and accommodating; I have never once seen an angry customer (except over maybe the weather). They edit the videos right there and they can be done in as little as an hour or less. It is a very family-friendly place and the staff usually brings their kids to hang around. They just bought a second aircraft; both are Cessna 182s (a bit small). All-in-all I would say that though small, this drop-zone is definitely worth a visit. You can't miss that awesome view!
