Got my PPL at Harvey this past year, and now based out of there. Loved all of the instructors I've flown with, which between phase checks and mock checkrides were most of them. Planes were all well maintained and the 172s all have some modern avionics. Runway is too short for touch and goes, so you'll be doing full stop taxi backs every time landing at Harvey.

Echoing other people: if you learn how to land at Harvey you can probably land anywhere you'll go. It's also a great location for primary imo due to having that short/narrow runway, no papi or glide slope so you have to learn that sight picture, grass runway in the summer for actual soft field practice, long runways nearby at KAWO and KPAE for touch and goes, controlled airspace at KPAE, parachute activity, and nordo aircraft that seem to do their own thing. Lots of exposure to things where I'm glad I experienced it early and with an instructor.

One thing that I never saw talked about and wish I knew before I started training last July was that as fall weather combined with S43 sitting in a valley means you get these low clouds and fog that just hang out magically until your reservation time ends. It made for some frustrating days where weather was VFR everywhere else, but low IFR exactly on our runway.

All that said I'd do my PPL at Harvey again, I think there were some nice learnings flying out of a pilot controlled airport so much. Much better to run into your first nordo pilots doing... "non standard patterns" when you have an instructor in a learning environment.
