5 Horse Tracks in Ohio That You Shouldn't Miss

October 12, 2021 Chanda Heide

If you are looking for an active place to stay with world-class attractions, Ohio’s major cities can satisfy any vacation desire. Each offers its own distinct flavor of fun, from professional sports – Bengals (Cincinnati), Cavaliers (Cleveland) and Indians (Cleveland again) – to museums, outdoor activities and more. One of the most famous is the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in Cleveland. If football is your thing, don’t miss the Pro Football Hall of Fame in Canton. For the science-minded, visit the meat eaters at the Carnivore Conservation Center in the Wilds near Cambridge, dedicated to the breeding and scientific study of endangered mid-sized carnivores. Kids will also love Planet Snoopy in Sandusky or the Columbus Zoo’s Zoombezi Bay Waterpark and Jack’s Landing rides.

For any Sport fanatic, this is the Super Bowl of Ohio Harness Racing. If you've never been....YOU ARE MISSING OUT! Great Day of harness racing, lots of great food during the Delaware County Fair.

Great track if you want to be up close and feel the action. I've been to several race tracks and this one is my favorite.

We come about once or twice a month. The casino is easy to get around in when I bring elderly family. It’s always clean. It’s a fun few hours...especially if you’re winning!

We've always had a great time at Eldorado casino at Scioto Downs. The employees are very friendly and I've been very lucky on the slot machines there. They recently got the new "Dollar Storm" slot machines that are popular, although they need to get more of them as there are always people waiting to play them on the weekends when it is very busy. The promotions manager "Brian" is very friendly and helpful as well as the hosts, "Karen P". and "Jessica"! The cocktail waitresses are nice as well as the bartenders at the bar. We always enjoy the fact we can just walk a few feet to our hotel as the Hampton Inn hotel is adjacent to the casino. That is a real plus especially if you return to your hotel late at night. Eldorado casino seems very clean and they have a large cleaning crew, who wear bright yellow T-shirts, come by the machines to sanitize them constantly! We also love that the casino is smoke free, but they do have outdoor patios with slot machines for smoking patrons. The complimentary coffee and soda machines are nice, too !! We will definitely return to Eldorado! Especially now that they are connected to Caesar's Entertainment so we can use our Caesar's players card!
