WAVERLY HILLS SANATORIUM REVIEWS
My friend and I went to the 6-hour Paranormal Investigation last night and we had Chelsea as our Tour Guide. She was amazing! She was so much help, gave us a lot of information about the spirits that make Waverly their home, and she treats the living and dead with great respect. You can tell she loves her job and is passionate about being there and it makes those who are passionate about ghost hunting love that places even more. My friend and I will definitely be back and we look forward to having Chelsea again!
This place is unbelievable! We did a paranormal tour so, it was night and most of the tour was in the dark. The tour guide was a great story teller and super knowledgeable. We had an amazing time! I'd like to go back and see it in the day so that I can get a better look at the actual building but the paranormal tour was so cool and I'm really glad we did that one first! If you're in Louisville and like the creepy and paranormal do yourself a favor and check it out!!!
Will definitely be back to do another investigation. I hope that when I do Chelsy is still there and our tour guide again. We want to thank you for allowing part of the Research Society Virginia Paranormal group investigate and can not wait to return home and go over all of the footage.

'Riverside, The Farnsley-Moremen Landing' is the cornerstone of Louisville, Kentucky's 300-acre historic site. The house was built around 1837 and stood as a testament to the vital role farming along the river played in their country's development. The entire 300-acre tract, including historic houses, was named in 1998 as a Jefferson County Historic Landmark District. The artifacts also offer essential information on everyday life in the 19th century. The site provides a stunning view of the Ohio River, surrounded by rolling hills on the opposite bank. It gives students a chance to spend the whole day at a riverside. It offers free admission for children five and under.

RIVERSIDE, THE FARNSLEY-MOREMEN LANDING REVIEWS
I love this place! I have always loved it since I went on a field trip in high school, back in 2007. It's a cheap Museum to visit. Around $6 I believe for an adult. I went with my son on his school field trip. The people are super nice. And they explain everything that you're looking at. Plus you get a wonderful view of the river. Beautiful!
If you want a free place to let the kids romp, there isn't a better spot in the south end. Even has some historical information, a touch and smell garden, and indoor bathrooms if you need, as long as the building is open.
This home is a great place to take a tour. Trisha was our tour guide and did a wonderful job telling us about the Farnsley home. I highly recommend this place if you are interested in learning about historic houses with your family!

Big Four Bridge is a six-span former railroad truss bridge that crosses the Ohio River. The bridge was built in 1895 and decommissioned in the 1960s as a railroad bridge. The bridge connects 4 locations Louisville, Kentucky, and Jeffersonville, Indiana. People see the parking area as they come across the large four pedestrian/bike bridge into the historic center of Jeffersonville. In February 2013, the bridge opened to the public, and it receives more than 1.5 million visitors a year. It has plenty of green space, a pavilion, and a playground. It is intended to allow people to enjoy daily leisure and special events.

BIG FOUR BRIDGE REVIEWS
Beautiful 1800s rail bridge connecting Kentucky and Indiana. Now just for pedestrians, no pets. Kept clean and LED lit by private group. Gorgeous park on the Kentucky side close to Lincoln memorial and kids' park and splash pad, hot dog stand and bathrooms. Cute shops and cafes on the Indiana side. Easy to walk, bike, etc. while enjoying the panoramic views.
I absolutely loved the views I was able to get when walking the bridge. The people were extremely nice and the information found along the way was interesting. I can't wait until the weather breaks so that I can go back again. My friends and I had a lot of fun and are looking forward to many memories there.
Most scenic walking/biking trail in Louisville. Huge playground, tons of relaxing swings, lots of large flat grassy areas to play on and great scenery of the Louisville Skyline, Ohio River, Lousville Bridges, Abraham Lincoln Memorial and Statue.
