Welcome to Abel Island , probably the most unique and beautiful “island” airpark to be found anywhere on the Mississippi River channel.  Abel Island is Northeast Iowa’s drive-in, boat-in and fly-in residential oasis located two miles north of Guttenberg, Iowa. Taxi your aircraft and tie down at your doorstep. There is a mix of approximately 100 full time and seasonal waterfront homes on the Abel Island shorelines.

While the Mississippi River channel fronts the island on the east, Bussey Lake provides water frontage on the west shorelines.  A private  2,600′ lighted turf airstrip (100′ in width) runs N/S through the center of the island.  The turf runway has overruns at both ends is commonly owned by all Abel Island residents.
