Sugar Springs Airpark (5M6) is located in mid-Michigan and offers a full array of amenities. The airpark has a well maintained 3500 ft grass runway. Property ownership gives you full access to an 18-hole championship golf course, two lakes with beach clubs, bath houses, and boats docks, a fitness center, indoor swimming pool, tennis courts, camp grounds and nature trails. The Airpark is designated as a public-use facility where pilots can fly-in and enjoy dinner at the full-service restaurant. The Airpark hosts an annual fly-in breakfast the third Saturday in August. Each year at the fly-in, a drawing is held where four lucky winners get rides in a hot air balloon.
