Have a look at the NCM website, under their FAQ section
http://www.corvettemuseum.com/planning_visit/faq.shtml

The closest is The Country Hearth, which is just across the parking lot! Or, you could try and stay at Wendell Stode's own B&B.... Very nice!

Bowling Green itself has some good places to eat etc. But the above site will also give you soem info on what on etc.

Enjoy!

Go South 1-2 more exits to Scottsville rd. I don't know if they have the Cemetery rd Exit built yet, I have not been back home in over a year. You can`t miss the exit though there is a go cart track on the north bound side. Get off there and turn right. You will have plenty of places to get Good food and a nice place to stay.
Have fun!!!

We stayed at the Ramada Inn right at Scottsville and I-65. Reasonable and lots of food to be found. 10 minute jog north on I-65 and your at the museum.

LP,

Do yourself a favor and check into the Bryce Inn. My club stayed there when we visited Bowling Green and it was just perfect. It is run by fellow Corvetters Bob and Jackie Lightfoot and they even have an area where you can wash your car. They are geared towards Corvetters and even joined my club for a night on the town. It was a lot of fun. The homemade pecan pie is awesome too. Check it out: http://www.bryceinn.com/.
