Suggestions for a Rookie RVer

Recommended Posts

Hi to all. We are very new to this world. Looking for a long weekend destination in the mid/southern Ohio area for adults. Thank you for suggestions.

The Kentucky Horse Park just north of Lexington, KY is a great spot. It has a nice camp ground (no sewer at the sites, but there is one in the camp ground). If you are into horsey stuff, they have lots to see. Lexington has lots to see around the area.

Hi Laurie,

Welcome to the FMCA forum. Bear with me on this suggestion. Indiana, Ohio and Kentucky come together in this area. Consider this:

1. The Creation Museum. Go to http://creationmuseum.org/ to read about it. Just southwest of Cincinnati, just off the beltway (I275, exit 11).

2. Camp at Little Farm On The River RV Park in Rising Sun, Indiana (812-438-4500). Just north of Rising Sun. Go to http://www.littlefarmresort.com/index2.html to read about the CG.

3. About a mile from the CG is Grand Victoria Casino. Got to http://grandvictoria.com/en/ to read about it.

4. The Courtyard is a nice restaurant in Rising Sun. Go to http://www.rscourtyard.com/ to read about it. It is right in historic downtown Rising Sun.

#1 is about 30 miles from #2, 3 and 4. #s 2, 3 and 4 are all within 5 miles of each other.

Have fun, we did.

I second Gary on the Ceation Museum.

There is a nice military aircraft museum near the Canton airport also. Need someone to help me out on the name and details.

FMCA has a campground at 3590 Roundbottom Road in Cincinnati, Ohio. As a member you may stay there 2 nights a month for free with full hookups. $20 per extra night. The Creation Museum is not far away. I think the easiest way to get to the campground is from I-275 on the southeast side. Take interchange 63B / Hwy 32 to the north. When you get to Roundbottom road turn right and the entrance is on the right just past the railroad track. Rarely used by trains. Really quiet. Only 15 sites, call and see if has been reserved by a group. Usually it is available.

Try Cumberland Falls State Park in SE Ky. It has a waterfall that can't be beat!. During a full moon, a moonbow forms. Only in in N. American to my knowledge. :rolleyes:
