    Has the pandemic ruined your travel plans?  Quarantine has made people scared to leave the state. I can totally understand that fear and it has made traveling hard. One alternative, is taking the opportunity to travel close to home.

    As Kentuckians, we sometimes take for granted the beauty that surrounds us.  With this in mind, Melissa and I have traveled around Kentucky to check out some of the Best Kentucky Travel Destinations close to home!

    Best Kentucky Travel Destinations

    Visit Natural Bridge - I may never get to see the 7 wonders of the world, but I did get to see the wonder of Kentucky!  If you get the chance you really need to Visit Natural Bridge located in Slade, Kentucky.  We are a hiking family and we had never been to this area.

    Road Trip to Rabbit Hash - Step Back in a moment in time! The town is notable for its name, its string of canine mayors, and its historic general store which was largely destroyed by fire in 2016.

    Flat Lick Falls - There is nothing more beautiful in Kentucky than Flat Lick Falls. We went to visit this waterfall and had a great time. It is a hidden gem in Jackson County, Kentucky.

    The Kentucky Castle - The Kentucky Castle is an unique destination that EVERYONE needs to put on their travel bucket list right here in Central Kentucky. It is not every day that you get the opportunity to stay in a castle.

    Cumberland Falls - Cumberland Falls and is known as the Niagara of the South. It is one of the most impressive waterfalls in the South and is definitely one to see.  It is located in Corbin, KY.

    Red River Gorge Getaway -  This is one of the best getaways in Kentucky!

    Big Bone Lick State Park -  Big Bone Lick State Park is in Union Kentucky and located close to nearby Cincinnati, Ohio for those wanting to check it out. It is a great road trip destination.

    Day Trip To Irvine Ky - If you are looking for something fun to do consider a day trip to Irvine KY. We spent the day exploring a distillery in Ravenna which is a city located in Estill County. It is beautiful.
