It operates 24 hours per day, although it is not controlled between the hours of midnight and 6:00 a.m. (EST/EDT). It is also designated as a weather station.The airport is located on 309 acres (125 ha) of land, has one runway which is 6,295 feet (1,919 m) long, and is east–west oriented, with headings of 089 and 269. Cobb Place is at the east end, with Cobb Parkway (U.S. 41) and old 41 intersecting McCollum Parkway on the west end. The airfield sits at 1,040 feet (320 m) above mean sea level somewhat above average terrain for the area. The airport has a control tower. The airport also has a restaurant built directly beside the runway called Elevation Chophouse & Skybar; patrons can watch aircraft take off and land from their tables. The airport has approximately 321 aircraft based there at the end of December 2021: 212 single engine, 35 multi-engine, 61 jet aircraft, 11 helicopters, and 2 glider. 82 percent of operations are general aviation, 16 percent is air taxi, and 2 percent is military. No major commercial airlines service Cobb County Airport, but there are two charter companies and two major fixed-base operators. Aerial tours are very popular at the airport, largely because the scenic Appalachian Mountains are less than a 30-minute flight away.

The airport employs almost 185 people, and had an annual economic impact of more than US$47 million to the local economy in 2002.
