Always enjoy walking the beautiful grounds with our leashed dogs around the historical buildings, through the woods and across the open fields. Would give it 5 stars except too many people do NOT pick up after their own dogs. Be careful!

We love coming here to walk the grounds and get some exercise! The grounds have several buildings to include the home of William and Lucy Clark Croghan, Lucy's brother was George Rogers Clark. The home is great to tour, but we haven't been since Covid. If you're looking to learn more about life in late 18th and early 19th century Louisville, or just want to get outside for a peaceful walk, head to Locust Grove!!

A beautiful, peaceful place. A time when life was more gentle and peaceful, and humans had time to dream, wonder, explore, and go on journeys of adventure and discovery! One of my favorite places for years and years. A perfect must, when decorated for Christmas!

Quiet beautiful place with well taken care of grounds. Would have loved to tour buildings but was not there when open. Great place to take pictures.

A beautiful place in the world. Covid is having an effect, but even then, the peacefulness of this place is epic. There, now I ruined it for everyone. When I met my husband, 30 years ago, on our first date, we were both talking about this magical hideaway that we just had to go to. It was dark out, but we were already so stricken that we both had to share our special place. I didn’t mention where we were going, but as he offered me the chance to show him my favorite place first, I gave him directions until we got there. As we arrived, he shared that it was where he was taking us, too. Two years later, we were married here, and a lovely occasion it was. Our kids roamed the nearby wooded path as though it was their personal “Pooh Woods”. They still bring friends to share in the uniquely calming atmosphere of Locust Grove. 100% Kentucky. Yes, some of the history is dark here. As dark as Kentucky’s own checkered past. Let that go, if you can. For this land was settled by people brave enough to walk to or from New Orleans on foot, if need be. George Rogers Clark’s sister. And Lewis and Clark, no doubt, stopped on their way out West. It’s all there. And you can feel it. Do yourself a favor, and check it out.
