Fort Boonesborough

Fort Boonesborough State Park is a living history park located in Richmond, Kentucky. The park is named after the famous pioneer fort built by Daniel Boone and his companions in 1775. The fort was a major frontier outpost during the American Revolution and was the site of several battles between the settlers and Native Americans. Today, visitors to the park can explore the reconstructed fort, watch demonstrations of frontier life, and take part in educational programs. The park also offers camping, fishing, and hiking opportunities.

This is a cool place and I would have given more stars if more of the "interpreters" had been there. We only saw the 2 ladies in the gift shop and the cool guy giving axe throwing tutorials. No potter, blacksmith or candle making today. I was a bit disappointed about that. The weather was gorgeous. Still nice to see a glimpse of history almost come to life.

Awesome family friendly park and campground. This property has it all including but not limited to the fort, river, beach, campground with free hot showers, mini golf, store, gift shop, dump station, multiple picnic areas, playgrounds, pool, basketball courts, volleyball courts and more. Leashed dogs are welcome but not in the fort. Parking is everywhere and large enough for any size rig or RV. I had 3 bars of Verizon 4G LTE Roaming throughout the property.

Pretty cool place to stop and check out. Lots of history on the area and a really cool gift shop. Inside the fort they have different buildings with different crafts from the era like candle making etc. If you're down that way you should stop in and check it out it's pretty cool.

Nicely laid out clean park. Kids will enjoy the attractions. Adults will appreciate the nature and historical significance.

This campground is amazing. The sites are nicely spaced apart, with a lot of shade. There are nice bathrooms and showers. A laundry room has very reasonable prices, and there's a grocery store with lots of varieties and RV parts as well. There are trails to hike , games including put put golf basketball court and a playground. Unfortunately the pool is out of service but the staff said it should be repaired by next year.
