During your stay in the Purchase, take time to unwind by getting out and enjoying some of beauty of our region. There's a little something for everyone and even some unexpected (and unexplained) sites to visit.

Where else but Western Kentucky can you visit:

A Mississippian Archaeological Site from 1100 AD

A Civil War site and view the Mississippi River

A Hotel whose guests included the biggest names in Blues and Jazz

Hometown of a chicken catcher turned Vegas headliner

A Backroads Festival for crafts and guided tours of an Amish Community

More shoreline on a lake than you could fish in a lifetime

A Haven for Creative Types

AND Much, Much More!
