The one time we were in Paducah, we were staying at Fort Massac in Metropolis, IL, right across the river from Paducah. Fort Massac is an enjoyable state park and very pleasant to stay at. Being in Metropolis, we were able to easily visit the Superman Museum. Crossing the Ohio River on the bridge to Paducah gave easy access to all of the very enjoyable sites that Ray mentioned.
