Watercolor Airport

The airport was a private-use airstrip located on a residential property. The closure was not due to military conversion, a major accident, or regulatory action. The most likely reason is personal and economic, such as a change in property ownership, the owner ceasing aviation activities, or the owner simply no longer wishing to maintain or list the strip.

The site is currently a private residential property. Satellite imagery from the 2020s shows that the turf runway area is still clearly visible and appears to be well-maintained and mowed, resembling a large, open lawn or field. A building that likely served as a hangar is also still present on the property. While the physical runway appears to be in good condition, there is no indication of it being used for regular aviation operations, and it is not listed as an active airport.

Watercolor Airport had no major historical significance. It was a small, private turf runway serving the personal aviation needs of its owner. Operations would have been limited to light general aviation aircraft (e.g., single-engine planes like Cessnas or Pipers) capable of operating from a short grass field. The name 'Watercolor Airport' was likely a personal or whimsical name chosen by the owner and is not officially recognized by aviation authorities.

There are no known plans or prospects for reopening Watercolor Airport as a public or officially registered private airport. Its future use is entirely at the discretion of the current property owner. It could potentially be used again for private flights if the owner is a pilot and chooses to do so, but there is no public information to suggest this is planned.
