With some terrific road trip options available in the surrounding area, renting a car makes good sense. Without one, it’d be much more difficult to explore everything that Hopkinsville, 30 miles away, has to offer. See the best sights starting with Tie Breaker Family Aquatic Center, Trail of Tears Commemorative Park and Heritage Center and Jeffers Bend Environmental Center and Botanical Garden. Locals will also likely point you in the direction of Bowling Green, 35 miles away. If you can only find time for one thing here, let it be National Corvette Museum. (But we’re also huge fans of Beech Bend Park and Lost River Cave.)
