With some terrific day trip options in the surrounding area, having your own car makes good sense. Without one, it’d be much more difficult to soak up everything that Vernon, 25 miles away, has to offer. Claude Monet’s Garden at Giverny, Monet House Museum and Collegiale Notre-Dame de Vernon alone make the drive out worth it. Giverny is another wonderful option. It’s 30 miles away and boasts tons of fun things to see and do. Claude Monet’s Garden at Giverny, Monet House Museum and Chateau de la Roche-Guyon are just the start.
