My family and I consider this park our favorite in Cincinnati. It has sort of a smaller Ault Park (Mt. Lookout) feel but is much more secluded and typically less crowded. The have a nice playground for the kids, but we really like the terrace that overlooks Lunken Airport as we could site there for hours and watch the plans take off / land. They also have some nice trails through the woods..not too long so the kids can explore without getting tired and wanting to go back.

Although this place is pricey, it's really unique and a fun spot to relax and try some delicious gourmet dogs. I only order the "Trailer Park" which is a bacon wrapped hot dog with cheese, coleslaw, and crushed Grippos (bbq potato chips). Ordering the Trailer Park should be a no-brainer. Getting a good seat in-house can be difficult but finding a spot at the bar is usually a lot quicker.

I live a a few miles from here and never knew this park existed. One day my daughter and I were at Ault Park (Mt. Lookout) and while on top of the hill we noticed the soccer fields, trails, etc. off in the distance. That sparked our curiosity to get in the car and go find this place, and I'm glad we did. It's right down the street from Lunken Airport and situated perfectly on the landing path for planes as they fly right over the park consistently. The bike paths around the park are awesome, they have a small dog park, a playground, soccer fields, and a canoe/kayak landing point on the Little Miami River. Overall a great park that is never too crowded.

Consistently a top 100 pick on Golf Digest's Best Private Courses. This legendary track is nestled in the rolling hills of the Village of Indian Hill, OH. The club is super exclusive as the old money membership style is very strict about new memberships. Tom Cecil is currently the Head Golf Pro and takes real pride in the course as well as the service he and his staff provide. This course was designed by Seth Raynor and is a real treat if you're able to get invited to play. I was fortunate to have worked here during college and now truly miss the luxury of being able to hop on as I pleased. The greens are huge and very fast and the sand traps are easily the deepest / largest you'll find around greens in the Cincinnati area. Camargo hosts the U.S. Amateur Qualifier each year, so if you're handicap is low enough, I suggest making a trip to Cincy and play in this event.

Great spot to grab a unique gift! They have a ton of different flavored olive oil's and there are pieces of bread which you can use to sample any of the oil/balsamic in the store.

Hands down the best lobster roll in Cincy! The lobster is chunky and buttery on a toasted roll...need I say more!? Definitely pricey for the portion size but a must try.

I used to frequent Feast BBQ when staying overnight in Louisville for business. I couldn't wait to drive across the river into New Albany. The most unique menu item, and my usual is the BBQ pork/chicken tacos (soft shell). The space is really cool and has an old western feel. Enjoy one of the microbrews in a frosty mason jar to really master the experience.

Awesome family friendly spot to take the kids and keep them entertained for hours. The farm always has seasonal events that are a must see (Halloween Nights, Christmas Fest, etc.). Kids can tour the barns and pet the farm animals. The real hit is Parky's Barn which was converted into a giant play land. There are obstacles, slides, and rope swings throughout this rustic barn. Definite go-to for children.

Formerly "Roy Rogers" this place has the best Roast Beef sandwich I've ever had, HANDS DOWN. A side of their homemade bbq sauce is a must to ignite your tastebuds. The fried chicken is also amazing. There were lines out the door into the parking lot for weeks after this place re-opened and during peak hours they stay packed.

A really great find on the East Side of Cincinnati. Jean Pauls Paradiso has absolutely unbelievable breads, pizza, pastas, and deserts. I'm shocked that they continue to operate in such a small storefront when they could easily expand. The quality of the food is amazing and the owner takes pride in everything he makes. The only downfall is that you should plan on ordering carryout because they only have a few small tables on site.
