Cherokee County Airport (FAA LID: 47A) is a small municipal airport located in north-central Cherokee County, Georgia, about halfway between the town of Ball Ground and the city of Canton, Georgia (various records list either one as the official address). The airport covers 152 acres (62 ha) and has one runway.

It has a non-directional beacon on AM longwave 416 kHz, which identifies itself with DJD in morse code tones, then announces the name twice, followed by "automated altimeter", and the local sea-level pressure in inches of mercury (such as "two-niner-niner-five" for 29.95).
