It truly takes you out of the hustle and bustle of a busy workweek. They have a very nice koi pong outside with a spot to sip wine near by. I side they have a beautiful bar area and many cozy spots for dipping wine and relaxing with a good read. The patio space is also very nice and it was a gorgeous day when we were out there. Now for the wines! I must say I liked every wine I tried. I especially enjoyed a states berry basil wine and a mango wine. They are absolutely perfect for summer and non of the wines are overly sweet which is appreciated. So much all you taste is what was added vs the wine. The owners are a husband and wife team and I couldn't love that more. They truly put their heart and soul into the wine, production, down to the selection of the grapes. The name is a nod to their time in Japan. As them about it! Can't wait to come back on a nice day for another glass. It's a little far out for me but worth the adventure!

Girls day out! Decided to visit Harkness Edwards Vineyards after searching for Fall activities and…read moreit was a hit! We visited on a beautiful Saturday afternoon and enjoyed the scenery as we sat outside sipping our wine. Located just a short drive from Lexington, Harkness Edwards is checks all the boxes for a fun day out. Atmosphere, check. Views, check. Affordable, check. A variety of wines for every palette, check. We prefer our wine on the sweeter side so we went with the best sellers flight. For just $10 we received a flight of 5 different wines, These were generous pours and we presented beautifully. Once we got settled, we decided to add a charcuterie board for two. At just $20, that was a great price! It included grapes, multiple cheeses, crackers, meat and chocolates. I would've liked a bit more meat, but I understand that additional meat may have driven the price up. In addition to our flight, we also enjoyed a glass of seasonal apple cider sangria. It was light and refreshing, topped off with champagne for a bit of effervescence. Since it was such a nice day, we opted for outdoor seating to enjoy the weather and beautiful views. The atmosphere is very relaxed and casual. We brought personal activities to entertain ourselves, so we colored , journaled and did some reading during our time at the vineyard. Before leaving, we settled our tab and browsed in the retail area. They have many items for purchase including local honey, candles, soap, lotion and of course, wine. We purchased a bottle of our favorite wine from our flight. In addition to tours and tastings, they offer a variety of different classes. While we were there, there was a floral class going on. I would like to come back and take a class in the future. We had a wonderful outing at Harkness Edwards. The staff was very friendly, the wine and charcuterie were delicious and the atmosphere was delightful!

If you have reason to stay in Richmond, this is clearly a much, much better value than any of the modern alternatives on the outskirts of town. The rooms have 10'+ ceilings, large bathrooms, a sitting area: luxury at a reasonable price. The location is a mixed blessing. While you can walk to everything that's downtown (e.g., government offices, restaurants, USPS, a comfortable library), the place is, therefore, downtown as well--not bucolic.

Great place for first time campers!…read more We did our first tent camping trip here and it was the perfect place for us. Staff was extremely nice and helpful with any questions that we had. We stayed for 2 nights and it was about 44 dollars which wasn't bad at all Toilets and showers were located on the backside of the little store. They were fine but got muddy since it rained which wasn't a big deal. They also had porta potty's further back so those that were further away didn't have to go too far. They had a little restaurant quick food area inside the shop that had breakfast, lunch and dinner items. We were next to the road but it was not too busy and there was a good amount of space between the sights. There was a bunch of families and everyone seemed to be having a good time. There are quiet hours starting at 10pm and everyone respected it. Not too far from hikes that we went on and we will definitely be back!

My fiancée and I had planned to view this house for our wedding next year. She confirmed with Terri…read morethat we would be arriving to view the house between 6:45 and 7 since we were driving up from Lexington, which she confirmed. We arrived at 7:07 and the house was locked up and empty. We sent her an email to let her know that we had arrived since that was our only method of contact that she had provided. We walked around the grounds looking to see if we could find someone outside working to no avail. Lots of boxes and other odds and ends from the wedding several days before were still strewn about. Finally called the number listed in the front window and she answered with "Hello, who is this??". I asked her about the showing and she told me "It's 7:30, you said you would be there by 6:45 and you didn't show up, so we left. You want me to send someone back out there?" I told her no, thank you and we left. If you are searching for a wedding venue, I would advise you against dealing with this place.

Enjoyed the blacksmith demonstration, and the numerous artifacts and posters combine to form an intimate narrative of the place. The fort itself seems a little run down, and a few of the employees seemed standoffish and irritable on the day that we visited, especially the woman in the first cabin with a person. I didn't really understand why she seemed so agitated at another person near us asking a very simple question. Bizarre. We got the heck out there. The monument in front of the fort easily had a hundred bees buzzing around it, so beware if you have bee sting allergies.

We stopped at the Fort when we saw a sign on our way to Corbin, KY. We hadn't heard of it before…read moreand we had some extra time so we figured we'd give it a shot. We were definitely pleased with the accuracy of the fort replica and the knowledge of the staff. We learned about how they made wood tools, how they spun linen into thread and how to use a loom. They had some more exhibits that were unmanned at the time like making soap and a traditional garden. They also had a gift shop but I wasn't all that impressed and thusly did not purchase anything. The grounds were very nice and very well maintained. The fort was peaceful and not crowded at all, the only downside was that the kids were horribly bored. I can't really blame the museum too much for this....it WAS near the end of a long hot day, but the place really isn't geared towards younger kids. So it's up to you if you think your kids would enjoy long in depth detailed and historically accurate descriptions of the tasks I listed earlier.....is so then you will be pleased. In our case the kids were not, but that didn't stop us from having a great time, 4 Doubledays for you....and nice work!
