    This is why I drive everywhere in my Sprinter van. If you were flying, you'd never get to see this…read moresort or random roadside America and that would be a shame. Here in rural Kentucky, about halfway between Louisville and Nashville and only a mile or two off the Interstate, is the creation of Munford native Chester Fryer. He is a stonemason and the stones are set up along compass lines. This is a quiet, residential street and the rock formations are in his front yard. So please keep that in mind - there is a sign indicating that it is closed at 5pm and another sign indicating that donations are accepted. [Review 20206 overall - 239 in Kentucky - 1183 of 2023.]

    Really cool and unique roadside attraction in the small country city of Munfordville Kentucky…read more Being from Louisville I was headed to a nearby city bonnieville for a pig roast. I had seen this attraction on a roadside America site and decided to stop in real quick since it was only 5 minutes off my route. It's a bit over an hour drive from my home city of Lousiville so not too bad. Located a mile or so off the 65 expressway. When you pull in it is like your pulling into a neighborhood and this gem is just Sitting right there. Really cool place and the work they did is great. They did a good job of making this replica of the world famous one in England. I have no idea the motivation or reasoning behind this project. But it makes for a fun quick visit and photo ops. I had two of my 4 girls with me and they had fun running around and checking out the cool rock formations. So it was a really successful and fun trip. If your ever headed from Louisville towards Nashville keep this place in mind. It is before the cave city and bowling Green exits so makes for a fun stop if visiting one of those areas.

    Abraham Lincoln's Birthplace is one of the smaller sights managed by the National Park Service but…read moreI highly recommend it. The administration building has a lot of historical facts about President Lincoln that are very interesting! The memorial building contains a log cabin similar to what President Lincoln was born in. There are many steps up to the memorial, but this memorial is handicap accessible if you take the ramp feature to the right of the administrative building! It's a short trip from Bowling Green, where I stayed and I highly recommend it. To the left adjacent to memorial is a building named Nancy Lincoln Inn but it is on private property and you cannot visit it. There is a marker for it though! I would highly recommend. It's a great memorial to arguably one of our best presidents!

    Admission is free for all visitors [Hodgenville KY]…read more We arrived at the last hour before closing but the Memorial Building at the Birthplace Unit closed 30 mins sooner at 4:30p so we headed up there first. This was the symbolic cabin representing Lincoln's birthplace nicely preserved inside a memorial building. Abraham Lincoln was born in a single-room log cabin at the Sinking Spring Farm in LaRue County KY. One hour was good seeing what's there including the Sinking Spring, water source for the Lincoln family and some short trails. In our case we just wanted to view the cabin in which Abraham Lincoln was born so we only spent maybe 30 mins at the park. The grounds are nice and well-kept. Abraham Lincoln was the sixteenth president of the United States. Review #3922

    Well kept and a recommended visit if you are in the area- or if you aren't from the area. If you…read morelike walking trails then this place is for you. But be warned it's hilly, VERY hilly. Beautiful landscape, no urban sprawl. What you see is 1862.. trees are where trees were and open fields are where they were. I've been to many battlefields and I think this one is where the books don't do the terrain justice.. you really have to see it firsthand. The State and Trust have done a good job preserving the battlefield. If you look, you can see new land that was bought and about to be handed over. Recommend

    If you enjoy reading/seeing things associated with the American Civil War; walking the battlefield…read moreexplains why so many lives were lost and fills in some of the history you will read in books or here from lovers of the war (Living History personnel) The physical battlefield directly explains why the battle losses were high. You can see only about maybe .15-.3 miles as it is rolling ridges On the Confederate Right Flank; the Confederates pushed against one ridge to the next to the 3rd position (behind a stone wall which no longer exists). Yet; until you get to the top of the ridge; you have no clue what is behind it. Left Confederate Flank did not hit as many ridges; but, had their share of problems. As you walk the field; imagine you have no idea what is ahead of you except what you can see and imagine you are tired and thirsty and carrying 20-30 lbs of stuff.
