1. Ohio Renaissance Festival

Reviewed By tonia1965 - Batavia, Ohio
The lines were pretty long to get buy your ticket. So if you can buy your tickets online I would highly recommend it.
It was $3.00 to park and $22.50 a person to get in.
There are a few free shows but the good shows cost any were from $3.00 to $14.00 and last around 20 minutes.
There are tons of shops with all kinds of clothes and swords and other stuff. Most things are not cheap at all but the items are very good quality and hand made.
There is also a lot of places to eat as well and the prices are pretty good.
Remember the place does get very crowded by noon and the traffic coming off of 71 is pretty bad at times but the do have cops directing traffic but it still took us 12 minutes to get onto Route 73 from I-71!! So be ready for heavy traffic and long lines and very crowded.
Over all the place is fun and has cool shops.

Nice spacious camp sites, BUT there is no sewer or water hookups at each one. There is water hydrants to fill your fresh water tanks with and hydrants throughout the park to fill water jugs. The bathrooms and bath houses need some updating and de-molding. Its a nice place to relax and enjoy.
4. Majestic Springs Golf Club
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 7 reviews
Reviewed By Mr. Boss - West Carrollton, Ohio
Off a two-lane curving rural road near Wilmington, with corn growing up to the very edge, if you are lucky, you will find Majestic Springs.
This well maintained course features many water hazards and
terrain elevation changes. This is the quietist course I have played this year. On the whole course we saw only two homes on a hill overlooking one of the holes on the front nine.
The 11th hole par 5 is a microcosm of the course: your drive must clear a stream across a narrow fairway and reach the top of a hill for a clear fairway shot. A water hazard runs all the way down the left side to the green. The right side has woods & fairway bunkers to catch an errant shot. Your chip shot to the green is a challenge as the water hazard comes in to about a third of the fairway right in front of the green with a severe slope to welcome a rolling shot. Too far to the right catches a sand bunker at
the edge of the green. A par here is a challenge.
On the front nine, the par 3 seventh
hole is at the top of another hill with a major two tier green waiting. Important to keep your tee shot below the hole no matter where it is. A long shot will add strokes quickly as you navigate down hill.
There are 4 tees so all skill levels can enjoy the course challenges.
This course is very reasonably priced w/a free early morning breakfast available & courteous counter & maintenance staff.
Enjoy your round...

Neat little county museum with changing exhibits. Plenty of local culture - take the docent led tour (under an hour) - very informative. Totally wheelchair accessible (elevator). Interesting things such as a bathtub that folds out like a murphy bed, oddities including a civil war "stump" full of cannon balls and a telescope made out of Model T/A parts. Go see this little gem - building is on list of historic places.
