Airport Closure Information

Last updated: Jul 24, 2025
Closure Date

The exact closure date is not officially recorded. However, based on analysis of historical satellite imagery and aviation database records, the airport likely ceased operations and was officially closed sometime in the mid-to-late 2010s. Imagery from 2013 shows a maintained runway, while later images show it in a state of disuse.

Reason for Closure

As a small, private aerodrome, the specific reason for closure is not publicly documented. The most probable cause is related to private ownership, such as the sale of the property, the owner no longer wishing to bear the cost and liability of maintenance, or a simple lack of use. There is no evidence to suggest it was closed due to a major accident, environmental issues, or military conversion.

Current Status

The airport is permanently closed and non-operational. Current satellite imagery of the site at 53.5133, -108.6653 shows that the land has reverted to private agricultural or pasture land. While the faint outline of the former grass runway is still visible from the air, there are no remaining airport facilities, markings, or aircraft on the property. The land is part of a rural farmstead.

Historical Significance

Evergreen Acres Airport was a private, unregistered aerodrome that served the recreational area of Turtle Lake, Saskatchewan. Its primary purpose was to support general aviation for local residents and visitors. It featured a single turf/grass runway (approximately 2,600 feet / 790 meters long) and was used by pilots of small, single-engine aircraft (like Cessnas or Pipers) for recreational flying and access to nearby cottages and properties. It held no commercial or military significance and was purely for private use.

Reopening Prospects

There are no known or published plans to reopen Evergreen Acres Airport. Given that it was a small private strip and has been defunct for many years, the likelihood of it being restored and recertified for aviation use is extremely low.
