Top 10 Things to do in Montgomery, United States

December 8, 2017 Joeann Galban

Montgomery is a city in Hamilton County, Ohio, United States, settled in 1796. The town was a coach stop on the Cincinnati-Zanesville Road, later known as the Montgomery Pike, with an inn, two taverns, a grist mill and a carding mill to process its agricultural products. It would remain a rather sleepy hamlet until the 1960s when it became an affluent bedroom community for people working in Cincinnati. It retains its historic downtown with many other 19th-century houses scattered throughout the community. It is currently accessed from exit 15 off Interstate 71 and exit 50 off Interstate 275, and it is the eastern terminus of the Ronald Reagan Cross County Highway about five miles northeast of the Cincinnati city line. The population was 10,251 at the 2010 census.

There are 2-3 places in town offering escape rooms. They offered three scenarios, and we chose 'Extinction'. The setup was good as expected. However it was overly complicated for the average family. Perhaps 15-20% of families could complete it in the time allotted. It would have helped to know this when making the booking.

In comparison to say Browns Farm
in Ross this place was pretty terrible. I'd love to know what exactly they spend your money on because the grounds were very very poorly kept. The children's garden was full of tall grass and
weeds, my daughter couldn't get down and crawl at all. There were very few animals to see. What bothered me most is they had no produce available for sale in the middle of July, really??

I just really felt you got nothing at all for the money. I'd never suggest anyone visit this place.

The Queen City Brewery of Cincinnati

Reviewed By tmstevenson1 - Cincinnati, Ohio

This is a newer place with the brewers just starting to stretch their collective creativity for beer styles. Their flagship brews are very, very good. I am hesitant to say excellent because I reserve that for the upper echelon of micro-brews (and I've had more than you can imagine). The inside is very fun with benches and tables inventively made from leftover wooden pallets. There is one TV near the bar which can accommodate about 12 people comfortably. Don't necessarily go for the atmosphere, but DO GO for the beers!

Loveland Castle

Reviewed By rxjohn23 - Zanesville, Ohio

The Loveland Castle, is just that, a small castle nestled on the shores of the Little Miami river. The castle and it’s grounds are very casual, everything is self guided. It only takes 15-20 minutes to tour the property, but don’t miss the video on the second floor detailing the reason for the castle and the building process. We had our small dog with us and the caretaker on duty allowed us to take her inside, as long as we promised to clean up any mess she may make. Our 6 year old niece was with us and kept saying how “ cool” the castle was. Kids are free, its $5 a head for adults. There is no plumbing in the castle so be aware bathrooms are portalets outside and there is no food or drink available. The castle is worth a look.

Western Southern Open

Reviewed By fairfield744 - Cincinnati, Ohio

This is our third time attending the W&S tournament. In 2017 (this year) we attended the opening Sunday morning session from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. We had box seats ($100/each) on center court which were lovely, however we spent a lot of time out of our seats walking around the other fifteen courts watching practices or visiting one of the other three stadiums, taking a seat and watching a set or two of the qualifying matches. We saw many of the star players practicing on the outlying courts and we saw several stars at the entrance to the players' center (where fans could wait to get autographs).

Our box seat tickets came with access to the Racquet Club, which is a covered patio attached to Center Court with comfortable seating, bars, TVs to watch the matches or other sports, and a buffet. As I recall the lunch there was about $17 although we did not eat in the Club. (The Racquet Club shelter access was especially important last year when there was so much rain during the matches.) We also had preferred parking very close to the Lindner Center for an extra charge which I appreciated--and I believe after the torrential rains that occurred last year during the tournament management upgraded a lot of the parking and improved parking logistics.

The crowds were not very big during our visit so we enjoyed strolling around the grounds, visiting the food court, stopping for a wine cooler, listening to a band, and doing a little shopping. I think our day was a special promotion for high school students as I saw a lot of young people with polo shirts with their tennis team logos. There was also a hospitality tent for prospective Miami University students. Our day was also a feature day for Dayton fans. So I believe there are many special promotions for tickets if you check around for better pricing. There are also a number of corporate hospitality tents which are lovely air conditioned venues that we have visited in past years. And if you need tennis equipment and supplies, stop at the big 'Midwest Sports' tent on the grounds. (And they have a big outlet store not very far from the Lindner Center just off 275 at 11613 Reading Rd, in Sharonville too).

The Western & Southern tournament is a fun way to see some great tennis. It would be a wonderful treat for any avid tennis player. It's much more laid back than the US Open or Wimbledon which I have attended a few times as well, but it is a great experience. If you are thinking of attending with young people, taking in the tennis on one of these early days would be ideal. And there is also Kings Island amusement park, the Reds, and FC Cincinnati Soccer if you want to put together several days of fun for the family. We will probably go back later this week for some of the finals and I will let you know how that goes.

Trammel Fossil Park

Reviewed By Ken C - Chesapeake, Virginia

We were travelling around the area visiting state parks.....and saw information on this location. It sounded interesting.....so we stopped in.

The park is fairly small.....but it has great signage describing the various layers you were looking at.

Some of the slopes are a bit steep....so wear comfortable shoes.

You will find fossils....mostly of mollusks......and you can keep a selection if you like....and you will find some.

My wife and I found several really nice fossils......and we each kept one......to take home.

There is no charge to visit the park.......and it is an adventure......if you have kids......this is a go to place for a few hours.....lots of fun!
