With some great road trip options available in the surrounding area, renting a car makes good sense. Without one, it wouldn’t be half as easy to explore everything that McMinnville, 20 miles away, has to offer. Soak up the sights beginning with Cumberland Caverns, Black House and Falcon Rest Mansion and Gardens. Located 45 miles away, Chattanooga is another popular tourist destination. If you visit, don’t miss Tennessee Aquarium, Ruby Falls and Chattanooga Riverfront.
