Recommendation
For a balance of efficiency, cost, and the opportunity to explore, I recommend flying to the nearest major airport (Detroit) and then renting a car for the final leg to Newberry. This allows you to cover the distance quickly while still enjoying the scenic beauty of the Midwest during the drive to your final destination.
