Exploring Elizabethtown

Booking rental cars in Elizabethtown gives you access to more distant attractions like the Mammoth Caves and Fort Knox. However, as you know, the experience of travel goes deeper than what you do; it's just as much, if not more, about what you feel and think. If you want to conserve your mileage, stay right in town and travel to the margins of Freeman Lake Park. Rent a boat and propel yourself forth, watching as glimmering droplets of water cascade from your paddle and catch the light of the afternoon sun. Cast a line out and relax; as you wait for the rainbow trout and largemouth bass to bite, you'll discover plenty of time to ponder the mystery of a world that can feel so complex and yet so simple all at once.
