    Aren’t there usually strips of lights on the approach before the runway itself? At least for normal commercial airports they are present.

      Naw most VFR unguided airstrips like this don’t have anything in the way of landing assistance. The idea being that they’d never fly at night time and divert to a nearby IFR airport if there’s sudden weather. Like literal fair weather pilots.
