* Hollandale doesn't really offer anything of much value. The small city has lost its Subway recently, and it has no fast food to offer. It has a few dollar stores, a Double Quick with a chicken restaurant, a couple of other convenience stores, a bed and breakfast, a drug store, two local restaurants - Marie's Place and Hot Tamala Heaven, a small airport in terrible condition that hasn't been maintained in quite a while, a Cotton Country Inn, a tire service place and that's about it.
