Pilot Destination Update - Lakeway Airpark, TX
"Flew into Lakeway Airport 3R9 to go to the Lakeway Resort. Very nice airport. If landing runway 16 be careful of houses and trees atop the hill on short Final. If taking off Runway 34 on a high density altitude day, be careful of those same houses/trees - make sure you have enough power and use all available runway. No operations from sunset to sunrise. Courtesy pick-up / drop-off from the Resort was great. The bar and restaurant were great, with daily happy hour from 3:00-6:00 serving half-priced drinks and appetizers. The view of the lake is beautiful. The Resort pools are awesome!! Well worth the trip. Looking forward to going back again soon." - Submitted by Ryan.
