Situated at 10593 SW Greenville Rd, the parking facility at Greenville Municipal Airport (FAA Identifier: 6D6) serves general aviation pilots, airport visitors, flight students, and travelers visiting Montcalm County.

Visitor & Driver Tips
When approaching the airfield via M-91, look for the official Greenville Municipal Airport entrance signage on the west side of the highway. Because parking spaces operate on an open, first-come, first-served basis, pre-booking is not required. During winter months, exercise caution as lake-effect snowfall is common in western Michigan; parking closer to the main terminal building ensures easiest access to freshly plowed pedestrian pathways.
