Question 1

What are the major attractions in Putney?

Accepted Answer

If your trip to Putney is all sorted out but your travel itinerary is a bit on the empty side, we can give you a helping hand.

Nothing's better than discovering new things, and you can do that at Rapid River Lodge & Water Park. Black Mountain Offroad Adventure Area - Putney Trailhead is another great pit stop.

Question 2

What are the best road trip destinations near Putney?

Accepted Answer

With some great day trip options available in the surrounding area, having your own car makes good sense. Without one, it'd be much more difficult to soak up all that Big Stone Gap, 25 miles away, has to offer. Crooked Road Heritage Music Trail ought to be at the top of your list here. Southwest Virginia Museum and The Trail of the Lonesome Pine Outdoor Drama are also not to be missed. Locals will also likely point you in the direction of Greeneville, 55 miles away. If you can only find time for one attraction here, make sure it's Andrew Johnson National Historic Site. (But we're also huge fans of James-Ben: Studio & Gallery Art Center and City Garage Car Museum.)

Question 3

Where are the best beaches near Putney?

Accepted Answer

There's nothing quite as lovely as being by the seaside in the early evening. Take a relaxing drive to Smith Recreation Area Beach and glimpse the sun's rays dancing over the water before it sinks into the horizon. You'll find this magnificent stretch of coastline 12 miles from Putney.

Question 4

Where are the best convention centers near Putney?

Accepted Answer

If you're mostly here for business-related purposes, you'll probably be going to The Harlan Center. You'll find it 7 miles away.

Question 5

What kind of rental car should I get for Putney?

Accepted Answer

Sure, you can head out and explore Putney without a car. But with so much to see, having one will definitely make your trip more memorable. If you're excited to head out into nature, consider a vehicle with a little extra power. A full-size car or an SUV will do the job in style. A smaller car, like a mini or a compact, is a popular choice for those embarking on shorter trips.

Question 6

Should I get a luxury rental car in Putney?

Accepted Answer

You'll be glad to hear that there's an impressive variety of both economy and high-end rental vehicles available in Putney. What you go for depends on what you're willing to spend and the activities you've got planned. Specialty and prestige vehicles offer the best in comfort and class. If you want to indulge yourself, why not grab an elite SUV, or perhaps a fancy mid-sized sedan? On the other hand, if you just need a set of wheels to zip around town in at the cheapest price possible, you're better off going with an economy compact vehicle (or something else that won't burn a hole in your wallet).
