About Roscommon County – Blodgett Memorial Airport

Roscommon County–Blodgett Memorial Airport (IATA: HTL, ICAO: KHTL, FAA LID: HTL) is a county-owned public-use airport located five miles (8 km) northeast of the central business district of Houghton Lake, an unincorporated community in Roscommon County, Michigan, United States. It is included in the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) National Plan of Integrated Airport Systems for 2017–2021, in which it is categorized as a local general aviation facility.

It was known as Roscommon County Airport until 2005, when it was named to honor Terry Blodgett, the airport's manager from 1987 until his death in 2004, and his father Francis Blodgett, airport manager from 1959 to 1981.

The airport is home to a chapter of the Experimental Aircraft Association, which hosts regular events such as Easter Egg Drops and fly-in breakfasts with model planes, the opportunity to interact with personal planes, and free flights. The airport is also home to regular veteran's appreciation events, where veterans are welcome to enjoy warm drinks and refreshments.
