With some terrific road trip options in the surrounding area, having your own car makes sense. Without one, it’d be much harder to enjoy everything that Fennimore, 35 miles away, has to offer. Explore the area starting with Carr Valley Cheese, Whispering Winds Winery and Fennimore Doll and Toy Museum. Locals will also likely point you toward La Crosse, 35 miles away. If you only see one attraction here, let it be Riverside Park. (But we’re also big fans of Mount La Crosse Ski Area and Grandad Bluff Park.)
