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 Atkinson, 50 miles away, has to offer. Atkinson Stuart Country Club, R.F. Goeke Variety Store and Atkinson Lake Recreation Area alone make the drive out worthwhile. Yankton is another popular option. It’s 55 miles away and home to a variety of awesome things to do. Lewis and Clark Recreation Area, Riverside Park and Dakota Territorial Museum are only the start.
