I went out to Harvs earlier this year for hour building for about a month and my experience was excellent.
The aircraft are in great condition, the staff are probably some of the most friendly and accomodating people ive ever met. It is very much a family business and they really make you feel at home.
The scenary is very flat, but as said in an earlier post, they are are more than happy for you to take an aircraft away for a week (while i was there people went to Toronto, California, Calgary). The flat scenary also doesnt allow you to feature crawl because there is nothing on the ground. This is excellent if you are hour building towards a CPL where its all about trusting your headings and timings.
The airspace is wide open and ATC welcome you to Winnipeg International if you fancy it. Hardly anywhere charges landing fees.
The instruction i recieved during my checkouts was top drawer which if you are going there to get a licence in my opinion is the single most important thing. I also trusted them implicitly regarding money and every invoice i had was entirely correct - something that is lacking in some Florida flight schools who shall remain nameless.
As far as the town goes it is pretty quiet and i didnt manage to find any bars/pubs however there is a cinema. That for me is the area in which harvs could improve. Maybe arranging some nights out in Winnipeg or something. Obviously you are there for the flying, but being able to let off some steam in the evenings is important.
If you want to go and fly at a great flight school then thumbs up, if you want great nightlife go elsewhere.
