Bardstown Community Park

"This park is a hidden gem just off the main street in Bardstown. It offers something for everyone. Not only does it offer recently refurbished picnic pavilions, restrooms, and walking pathways, but it also will soon have an amazing accessible playground. The playground is expected to be completed in the spring of 2024. This will be the largest, tallest, most accessible playground in Bardstown."

"A nice slice of Mother Nature Hidden inside the historic district of Bardstown city limits. A very picturesque setting with a amphitheater/ shelter and a covered picnic shelter. As of 10/23 It was receiving some construction and an upscale installation on to the children’s playground as well as adding additional space under the cover picnic pavilions Nice playground with slides swings and more. Fountain water available to refill your bottles. A natural area for hikers with ridges and a reservoir. Fishing lake with Kentucky fishing license. Beware this is a natural area and snakes and other animals are present use caution. Trails are marked at the trail head and are simple to follow. Sturdy shoes recommended as well as bug spray . The main area is a nice stop for a relaxing stop or lunch Bathroom facilities are available"

"I hiked along the trails with my dog. Came back the next day and hiked the same trails. Nice park. Will be 5-star when the playground construction is finished. The restrooms were pretty clean."

"Looks like it's getting some upgrades. There are walking trails, but they are rugged! Bring boots or hightop shoes and OFF spray. This has a lot of potential, but the trails need some love and gravel."

"Needed more parking on nights with high school concerts or other big events. But other than that, the bathrooms were clean and stocked, and there's plenty of space to sit in your chairs or on a blanket. Nice stage/ concrete/ Pavillion, sound was really good, but the kids on the play ground we really loud (parents with no respect for what was going on)"
