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 all that Atkinson, 30 miles away, has to offer. Soak up the sights starting with Atkinson Stuart Country Club, R.F. Goeke Variety Store and Atkinson Lake Recreation Area. Yankton is another popular option. It’s 60 miles away and home to tons of fun things to do. Lewis and Clark Recreation Area, Riverside Park and Dakota Territorial Museum are just the start.
