Hobby Field Airport

Creswell's "Hobby Field" is one of Oregon's busiest General Aviation Airports.  It is located on 102 acres just east of I-5 and Creswell city limits.  The airport is owned and operated by the City of Creswell.

Activities/businesses available on the field are skydiving, flight instruction, aircraft maintenance, Chapter 31 of the Experimental Aircraft Association (EAA), aerobatic rides/lessons, and a flight simulator.  The city-run pilot's lounge is open daily for the aviation enthusiast and offers a variety of services; 100 LL and Jet A aviation fuel from a 24 hr. card lock system, pilot supplies, aircraft tie downs, hangar rentals, and commercial land leases. 

It is only a short distance from the airport to Emerald Valley Golf Course, Creswell's Best Western Inn, and several restaurants.
