The airport was constructed in 1966 to serve the new, growing community of Indian Lake. In its original configuration, it had a single paved northeast-southwest runway (4/22) measuring 3,000 feet (910 m). By 1975, the northwest-southeast runway, 14/32, had been added. The original runway was abandoned by 1993, and the entire airport was closed in 1999. As of 2006, the airport was listed for sale for US$7,000,000.[1]
