Question Best RV airport near Oak Ridge

I have a meeting in Oak Ridge (TN) on the April 15th and hope weather will allow me to fly Mikey down. (Paul will come over in the Valkyrie, if the shuttle launch schedule allows.) I plan to arrive on the 14th, rent a car, and head home on the 16th. I'm currently thinking of going into Campbell County-Jacksboro, TN (JAU), but I haven't call yet to see if cars are available.

Any suggestions or information from folks familiar with flying in the area?
