With some great road trip options available in the surrounding area, renting a car makes good sense. Without one, it’d be much harder to explore all that Fennimore, 20 miles away, has to offer. See the sights starting with Carr Valley Cheese, Whispering Winds Winery and Fennimore Doll and Toy Museum. Locals will also likely point you in the direction of Dyersville, 25 miles away. If you only have time for one thing here, let it be Field of Dreams. (But we’re also huge fans of Basilica of St. Francis Xavier and National Farm Toy Museum.)
