It was known as Baxter County Regional Airport until 2005. The airport used to be served by Lone Star Airlines who operated services to Dallas-Fort Worth International in the mid-1990s.
This airport is included in the National Plan of Integrated Airport Systems for 2011–2015, which categorized it as a general aviation facility.
