The airport's location in Hope provides access to outdoor recreation areas including Manning Park and the Cascade Mountains, making it popular with charter flights serving outdoor enthusiasts. Weather conditions can be highly variable due to the mountainous terrain, with morning fog and sudden weather changes common, particularly during spring and fall seasons.

The airport features basic facilities including a terminal building with limited amenities, fuel services, and aircraft maintenance capabilities. Ground transportation options include rental cars, taxis, and shuttle services to Hope township and surrounding areas.
