With some great road trip options in the surrounding area, having your own car makes good sense. Without one, it’d be much more difficult to enjoy all that Huntsville, 20 miles away, has to offer. US Space and Rocket Center, Bridge Street Town Centre and Huntsville Botanical Garden alone make the drive out worthwhile. Don’t miss Gadsden either! Just 45 miles away, Noccalula Falls Park, Gadsden Mall and Gadsden Kiwanis Park are must-sees here.
