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 all that Alexandria, 19 miles away, has to offer. Carlos Creek Winery should be at the top of your list here. Theatre L’Homme Dieu and Kensington Runestone are excellent attractions too. Long Prairie is another terrific option. It’s 25 miles away and has a range of fun things to do. Lions Charlotte Park, Long Prairie Country Club and Christie House Museum are just the start.
