Beautiful day to hike at the Nature Center. It's sunny and 50 degrees in December. They will have their Winter Hike tonight and you will be able to go on a short hike thru the woods , enjoy some Wassil by the Fire at the Abner Hollow Cabin , see lots of stars and maybe a planet looking thru some huge telescopes. It's a different look walking the trails in the winter. This place is very well taken care of . They have a wonderful gift shop that sells some Rookwood Pottery and Charlie Harper items and lots of other unique gifts , just in time for Christmas. I also love sitting in the library by the cozy fire . You can also get a coffee or tea , just pay $ 1.00 at the gift shop .

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.
4. Christian Waldschmidt Homestead
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 2 reviews
Reviewed By Bob S - Cincinnati, Ohio
This site has very limited hours so plan ahead. It's an excellent example of an early (c1804) Ohio homestead. The Waldschmidt family traveled from Lancaster, Pennsylvania to Ohio for the opportunity to acquire cheap land and grow their wealth. They were quite successful and the basement of their home served as a local tavern. This house has been maintained by the Ohio DAR and is a must see for history buffs. The property also was the site of the Civil War Era Camp Dennison, a hospital serving both armies. None of Camp Dennison remains but fortunately the Waldschmidt residence is still intact.
5. Loveland Castle

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.

This farm has a fall festival and pumpkin patch every October. One of our favorites. Admission is free. There is face painting, kiddie train ride, corn maze, and horsedrawn hayride for small fee. On the grounds there are all kinds of halloween decorations. plywood cutouts to pose for pics and a maze for kids to run through. the farm store has many items (crafts and food) for sale. there's also a concession stand. there were some farm animals to checkout and many picnic tables to sit back and watch your kids run around. a lot of fun for all ages.

My husband and I took our girls here during a time the city was offering free admission. I honestly feel once you have seen it, there is no point in returning. It is neat reading some of the facts and seeing some of the antiques they have on display. The house itself is more museum than preservation of the time period. I wouldn't want to pay for admission, but to walk through it for free was worth it.

I don't go often just to support a co-worker for the Funniest Comedian in Cincinnati contest. It was packed for a Wednesday night. Pretty good bar food - fried pickle spears and a good beverage selection. Enjoyed the evening but have been to funnier amateur and semi-pro evenings.

This cinema is very clean and comfortable. The food is a little high for me, but it is surrounded by some pretty good restaurant options if you want to eat before or after your film. The chairs aren't too bad, and very rarely have I encountered loud punks during a film. The bathrooms seem pretty clean and overall it's a great place to have nearby, especially in winter.
