I couldn't find any information or traveler reviews for an airport named Kostroski Airport (US-10125) in Franktown, US. The identifier "US-10125" does not correspond to a recognized IATA or ICAO airport code. Franktown, Colorado, is a small community, and public records or travel review sites do not indicate the presence of a commercial or publicly reviewed airport by that name or code in the area.
It is possible that the airport name or code provided is incorrect, refers to a very small private airstrip without public reviews, or is a fictional entity. Therefore, I am unable to summarize recent traveler reviews and experiences for this location.

Approximately 1999-2000. The airfield was depicted on the 1999 Denver Sectional Chart but was no longer listed as an active airfield in the 2000 FAA Airport/Facility Directory.
The specific reason is not officially documented, but its closure is consistent with common trends for small private airfields. The most likely reasons are the sale of the property for residential use and the significant suburban development in the surrounding Douglas County area, which increased land value and created incompatibility with aviation operations.
The site is now a private residential estate. The former runway area is still visible in satellite imagery as a cleared north/south dirt path, but it is no longer maintained or used for aviation. The property is occupied by a large private home and associated outbuildings. The surrounding area has been extensively developed with large-lot, high-value residential properties.
Kostroski Airport (also known as Kostroski Airfield, former FAA LID: CD29) was a small, private general aviation airfield. It was not a public-use airport and had no commercial or military significance. Its purpose was to serve the private aviation needs of its owner and possibly other local pilots. The airfield featured a single unpaved dirt/grass runway, estimated to be 2,600 feet long. It primarily handled light, single-engine aircraft and appeared on aeronautical charts for a relatively brief period in the 1990s.
None. There are no known plans or prospects for reopening the airport. The land is privately owned and has been fully converted to residential use. The density of surrounding homes and the associated safety and noise concerns make a return to aviation operations infeasible.
