We didn't use the terrace because it was too cold, but it looked so inviting and would be a great bonus space for anyone booking during the warmer months. I didn't feel nickel and dimed over equipment usage or in-house catering like I have with some other local venues. Nicole really went the extra mile to ensure the shower went off without a hitch. I would absolutely book there again. It's so nice to have a new venue option for larger events, especially one that allows outside catering.

Exceptionally Well Run and Modern Marriot Property…read more The TownePlace Suites in Owensboro is one of my top choices of places to stay when I'm in the Owensboro area. I have found over the years that the hotels close to the river are always way overpriced at certain times of the year so if you are willing to stay a little off the beaten path then give this hotel a shot. The hotel is located right off the highway and no more than ten to fifteen minutes from most of the major attractions in Owensboro. This hotel has all the amenities you need for a one or multiple-night stay. The staff are professional and this hotel is very well run by management and staff. My room was clean, and spacious and had everything I needed for two nights. The hotel has an excellent fitness center, indoor lounge areas, outdoor lounge areas and a very busy pool, Breakfast includes a variety of hot and cold choices, pastries, bread and cereals, fresh fruit and above-average coffee. The rooms have full fridges and useable kitchenettes, and depending on the size of the room you may have a bigger kitchen area. The room has many electrical outlets and USB charging stations for all of your devices. If you have USB-C then bring your charging blocks. The AC and heating units in your room work very well and are not that noisy. Wifi is easy to connect to and if you are a Bonvoy member you get the upgraded wifi at no additional charge, Lastly, this hotel has digital keys so you can skip the line up when you check in and they automatically send you your bill when you check out. Overall an affordable, well-run Marriot property and my number one place to stay when I'm in the area.

Looking to camp within a couple hours of Louisville for Memorial Day weekend, my wife happened upon…read moreMiles Landing. After checking the website and the photos we decided to give it a go. One of the first things that caught my eye was the 1pm Checkout time. Most campgrounds are noon o'clock or even the much stingier 11am. 1pm checkout is AWESOME. The campground is more-or-less divided between tent camping and RV camping, with RVs on the left as you enter the park, tents to the right. My understand is that the tent camping area used to be the entirety of the campground, and RV part was a later add-on. The tent sites are very open and spacious, and you don't feel like you're stacked on top of each other. The campground is currently utilizing a contact-free check-in system. Once you arrive at your site you send a text to let them know you've arrived and someone will be right there to help get you situated. In our case Chad was there within five minutes to greet us and give us some information and said he'd be back to deliver our firewood in a little while. About 45 minutes later not only had he delivered the firewood, but he had stacked for us, also. We pre-ordered 6 bundles of firewood. These aren't your typical stingy-ass bundles of firewood, either. They're easily twice the size of the bundles you get at most campgrounds or convenience stores. The wood is also excellent quality. It catches fire easily and burns cleanly. Since we're tent campers we have to rely on the campground restroom and shower facilities (which we were very close to). The bathrooms and showers are in the same building. These are some of the cleanest and most well-maintained shower facilities we've ever seen, and we've camped in a lot of places. The campground has a few tent sites with electricity, but for the most part it's primitive camping. The entire tent camping section is very well-shaded and quiet. We took a drive through the RV section of the campground and it's pretty extensive and contours the water probably about a half mile. The RV sites, like the tent sites, are pretty spacious. This campground isn't all hype and activities like some campgrounds. There's not even a camp store. There are campsites and a shower house. That's it, and that is OK with us. We tend to enjoy the relaxation of camping, the feeling of getting away from things, and being outdoors. And that's exactly what Miles Landing is all about. We liked it so much that we already have our reservations for July 4 weekend. I have a feeling we'll be coming back here a lot.

Or the fact that the sheriffs office calls her regularly to come get her horses off the highway because they got out, again (new fencing costs too much). Or when I was told it wasn't reasonable for me to expect my horse to have access to clean water ALL the time. Or the filth left by the numerous other animals on the property like raccoons, opossums, and bats (attaching photo of one of the piles). Maybe the dying and hurting horse in the field (had EPM from consuming opossum poop) that Ms. Ramey refused to euthanize because vets cost too much money, it took three days for him to die. With another horse Ms. Ramey again refused to provide vet care (he's old and will die anyway) so several boarders and customers at the barn paid to have the vet out to visit. What was wrong with him? He had heat stroke, once treated was just fine. How about the fact that the entire barn floods every spring, inside and out. Hope you don't think its reasonable for horses to have dry stalls. I could go on but I need to stop thinking about it. But I will say there is no way in hell I would let my kids ride out there on one of her horses, so if your a parent please don't let your kids ride out there or attend a birthday party there.

Owner is very kind. I enjoyed going there. I hope to go again sometime. I miss being around horsesread more
