Drive time Evansville IN to Nashville?

About how long will this drive take and what is the best route? Also, any hotel/inn recommendations for Evansville or New Harmony area?

Thanks!

2 1/2 hours max. You can go through Hopkinsville or Bowling Green, both on interstates most of the way. However, the Bowling Green route involves toll roads. Mapquest routes through Hopkinsville.

Sorry no recs on hotels. I have always wanted to see New Harmony, let us know what it was like when you get back.

The New Harmony Inn used to be quite nice in a simple way. I spend tme there many years ago. Check Trip Advisor to see if it's been kept up nicely.

Definitely through Hopkinsville. Not only no toll, but less traffic on I-24 towards Nashville than I-65.

Disagree on taking 24----to get to Hopkinsville you travel for 60 miles on the Penneyrile, not a freeway and think it's speed limit is 55 in many areas due to construction that started earlier this spring. However, if you're traveling this way during AM rush, absolutely take 24. 65 backs up badly inbound around Vietnam Vets BLVD all the way down to the 24/65 merge.

By the way, Evansville to Nashville is about 150 miles if you go via Pennyrile and 24
