With some awesome day trip options available in the surrounding area, having your own car makes sense. Without one, it wouldn’t be half as easy to enjoy everything that San Angelo, 35 miles away, has to offer. See the sights beginning with Lake Nasworthy, Fort Concho National Historic Landmark and Sunset Mall. Don’t forget about Sweetwater either! Just 40 miles away, First Baptist Church, Newman Park and Lake Sweetwater Municipal Golf Course are essential stops here.
