Thanks!

You%26#39;ll probably want to drive to West Virginia to find that. There is a place called Snowshoe.

The most local hill near Louisville is Paoli Peaks. Typically, they have to rely on snow making equipment and pray for some cold weather.

Perfect North Slopes just outside of Cincinnati is a slighty larger operation than Paoli Peaks, but its still just a glorified hillside with blown snow, they do a good job with what the have to work with, as does Paoli. But if your used to real boarding or skiing you wont be impressed

In town for the 12/13 UK vs. Indiana game bar/food advice?

What%26#39;s the best place to go before the game (sports bar, etc)?

What%26#39;s a good place to grab a steak after the game?

Any bars with live blues or rock downtown near the Hyatt?

Thanks for your help!

There are tons of places in the immediate vicinity of Rupp Arena, and all of them will be crowded before the game. Cheapside and Bluegrass Tavern next to the old courthouse, Hugo%26#39;s and McCarthy%26#39;s Irish Bar on Upper, Yesterday%26#39;s in the Lexington Center, Brooklyn Sports Bar (and several new bars) in the Victorian Square, and Sawyer%26#39;s in the Festival Market Building. Pedways connect a lot of these places.

As for a steak after the game, if you stay downtown DeShae%26#39;s would be good, though undoubtedly crowded. Other good places with walking distance are Dudley%26#39;s on Maxwell Steet and Jonathan%26#39;s at the Gratz Park Inn.

If you leave downtown to get dinner, try Malone%26#39;s on Tates Creek Road in the Lansdowne Shops.

I%26#39;m not big on live music, but there is usually a band at Cheapside in the evenings.

That could be one UGLY basketball game.

where to shop in Lexington Kentucky

shopping

Depends on what you%26#39;re looking for. Fayette Mall is the largest mall in the state. Hamburg has lots of shops. Clay Ave for eclectic boutique type shops.

Thank you for your help! I will explore all of them. Happy Holidays

What shops on Clay Ave do you like for Christmas gifts, lexingtongal?

And have you been to My Favorite Things in hamburg?

(btw, it%26#39;s a book store, but I really like Joseph-Beth Booksellers for gifts as well.)

I love Peggy%26#39;s. I can always find a gift there and can find something in a broad price range. I also like the Paper Weight although there inventory has dramatically decreased.

I%26#39;ll check out Peggy%26#39;s. Thanks..

I shopped at Peggy%26#39;s and liked it. Her store was crammed full of Christmas product; I wouldn%26#39;t know what it looks like any other time of the year.

I needed an individual Christmas card. They sent me across the street to the Paper Weight where their selection of individual Christmas cards was inadequate. The Paper Weight%26#39;s showroom looked unfinished---like a store that was getting ready to open but not ready to open yet.

Need Vacation Ideas/Lousiville Area

Planning a trip to Kentucky, kids range from 13 to adult. We are thinking the Lousiville area, want to go the horse race track. We like outdoor stuff and also need best ideas for lodging - the cheaper the better. BUT I don%26#39;t want a tent! A cabin would be great as long as bedding is furnished, don%26#39;t have room for all that. What are the must sees?

Need Vacation Ideas/Lousiville Area

Must/Should sees: Churchill Downs , Mammoth Cave (100 miles South of The Ville), Louisville Slugger Museum, Louisville Bats AAA baseball game

Need Vacation Ideas/Lousiville Area

If you wanted to drive farther west, I%26#39;d recommend Mammoth Cave National Park; they have adorable little cottages and cabins there; lots of great hiking, canoeing on the Green River, biking, etc.

Visit the Kentucky State Park website to see the accomodations in any of our wonderful state parks: lodges or cabins.

Louisville is a BIG CITY, so you%26#39;ll have all the cultural amenities, but there%26#39;s also Otter Creek Park with cabins available. Except for Churchill Downs and the Derby Museum, you%26#39;ll have to drive to Lexington/Midway/Versailles for the horse stuff.

You might also enjoy staying overnight at Shaker Village at Pleasant Hill; a unique experience...

I highly recommend the Stephen Foster Story in Bardstown, it is so worth the drive! It%26#39;s an outdoor play in an ampitheater and it%26#39;s a tradition for the summer time around here!

Have fun!

Thank you so much - we were wanting to see an outdoor play!

My recommendations are:

Derby Museum at Churchill Downs:

Louisville Slugger Factory and Museum (right in downtown):

Falls of the Ohio. Fossil beds just on the other side of the river from downtown Louisville:

Hello everyone,

I too am planning a family vacation to Kentucky this summer and would like some feedback. I am considering the Barkley lake area. Thanks in advance.

Hi. Wondering if anyone knows of any accommodation that has self catering facilities, for a friend travelling to Georgetown Kentucky to do research for one month in 2009.

Need ride-share to Cincinnati

My husband is arriving at Lexington airport on 12/23 at 10 pm and needs to get to Cincinnati. The taxi limo, cab and rental car options aren%26#39;t really feasible, so we%26#39;re looking for someone to share a ride with. Anyone going that way at that time?

Need ride-share to Cincinnati

I am sorry that I can%26#39;t help you out more. Maybe try posting this in the Cincy forum as well or on Craigslist. It seems there should be someone who would be going on to Cincy. If I still lived in Lexington, I would drive him myself for a reduced rate since I am unemployed...lol.
