With some great road trip options available in the surrounding area, renting a car makes sense. Without one, it’d be much more difficult to explore all that Grants Pass, 19 miles away, has to offer. Rogue River, Reinhart Volunteer Park and Schroeder Park alone make the drive out worthwhile. The locals will also likely point you in the direction of Jacksonville, 35 miles away. If you only have time for one attraction here, make sure it’s Medford City Hall. (But we’re also huge fans of Rogue Valley Mall and Rogue Valley Family Fun Center.)
