With some awesome day trip options in the surrounding area, having your own car makes sense. Without one, it wouldn’t be half as easy to enjoy all that Paris, 30 miles away, has to offer. Eiffel Tower, Paris Community Theatre and Sam Bell Maxey House alone justify the drive out here. Denison is another popular destination. It’s 50 miles away and home to tons of intriguing things to do. Eisenhower State Park, Eisenhower Birthplace State Historic Site and Waterloo Lake Regional Park are just the start.
