There are restaurants, a supermarket, and a truck stop right next to the airport. There is also a motel next to the airport: The Western Motel -- phone 706-547-3021. Ask for the commercial rate and mention the fly-in when you reserve there.  Our Chapter's Flying Start coordinator has used the motel and found it to be excellent.  There is no AVgas or autogas on the field but there is a BP gas station across the road from the airport.  There are restrooms, hot shower, etc. in the lounge area at the airport.
