Taylor County Airport (MDF)

Taylor County Airport (MDF) serves the city of Medford and the broader Taylor County region in north-central Wisconsin. The terminal is a classic, single-story municipal facility that primarily handles general aviation, private charters, and local flight operations. Its straightforward and functional design is intended to provide a reliable base for travelers and pilots accessing this agricultural and industrial portion of the Wisconsin Northwoods. The terminal experience at Taylor County is quiet and personalized, featuring a comfortable waiting area and administrative offices for the airport's management. Facilities include pilot lounges, public restrooms, and a flight planning room equipped with necessary weather and navigation services. Because there is no scheduled commercial airline service at the airport, the terminal operates on a more flexible schedule, with staff often providing personalized assistance to transient pilots and their passengers. The layout allows for immediate access to the aircraft parking ramp and fueling stations. While on-site amenities are limited, the terminal offers a peaceful environment with convenient access to the airfield and local industrial parks. There are no commercial restaurants or retail shops within the terminal, so visitors are encouraged to coordinate ground transportation to the center of Medford, located just a few miles away, for full services. The airport plays an essential role in regional business connectivity, local emergency medical transport, and as a base for specialized aviation services across north-central Wisconsin.
