With some awesome day trip options available in the surrounding area, having your own car makes good sense. Without one, it wouldn’t be half as easy to explore everything that Concordia, 35 miles away, has to offer. National Orphan Train Complex should be at the top of your list here. Cloud County Covention & Tourism- Whole Wall Mural and Sisters of St. Joseph of Concordia Motherhouse are also not to be missed. The locals will also likely point you toward Salina, 60 miles away. If you can only see one thing here, make sure it’s Oakdale Park. (But we’re also big fans of Kenwood Cove Water Park and Smoky Hill Museum.)
