What Travelers Say

AI-Generated Summary Based on web research

Traveler sentiment at Parlin Field (K2B3/NWH) in Newport, US, is generally positive, especially among general aviation pilots who appreciate its friendly, country atmosphere and the access it provides to the Lake Sunapee region. While older reviews highlighted a popular on-site restaurant, more recent traveler feedback indicates its closure, leading to some disappointment regarding amenities. The airport is noted for its straightforward operations, though specific recent reviews are limited, reflecting its nature as a small general aviation facility.

What Travelers Love

Friendly Atmosphere and Location: Pilots often describe the airport as having a friendly environment and appreciate its location for a country getaway, with access to downtown Newport, Lake Sunapee, covered bridges, and walking/biking trails.
Courtesy Bikes: Courtesy bikes are available for pilots and passengers, offering a convenient way to explore the local area, including nearby attractions and downtown Newport.
Self-Serve Fuel & Aircraft Services: 24-hour self-serve 100LL AvGas is available. Edmonds Aircraft Service provides maintenance, repairs, annual inspections, and restorations for piston-powered aircraft.
Recreational Access: The airport is situated near the Sugar River, offering a wooded picnic area and access to walking/biking trails, some of which feature classic wooden covered bridges.
Cleanliness: An older review specifically mentioned clean restrooms and a cozy office.

Common Complaints

Restaurant Closure: The on-site Lil' Red Baron restaurant, previously a popular amenity, has been noted as permanently closed by travelers in reviews from 2016-2018. This contradicts some official airport descriptions that still mention a restaurant.
Turf Runway Closure: Runway 12/30 (turf) is closed annually from November 15 to May 1.
Security Wait Times: Recent data for NWH indicates security wait times can be up to 30 minutes and immigration wait times around 8 minutes, particularly during peak hours, although these apply to what appears to be general aviation customs processing rather than typical commercial airport security lines.
Wildlife Presence: There are remarks about wildlife on and in the vicinity of the airport, which can be a concern for pilots.

Parlin Field offers a valuable and generally positive experience for general aviation users, particularly those seeking a convenient and amenity-rich (for a GA field) access point to the scenic Lake Sunapee region. While the lack of a restaurant is a notable change, the availability of self-serve fuel, aircraft maintenance, and unique courtesy transportation options like bicycles contribute to its appeal.
