The night sky
The Milky Way is faint overhead on the clearest nights; the brighter stars and constellations are easy.

Beautiful historic village ! Looked like a movie set-like a Hallmark movie ❤️
All good
Shaker Village is a Kentucky treasure.
As always, my visit was peaceful and quiet. My room was very comfortable and well-furnished with everything I needed.
Beautiful complex!
So peaceful.
Beds were not quite 21st century, but it is a Shaker Village afterall.
Disappointing
Beautiful grounds and delicious meal as always. I am a regular guest and love staying at Shakertown - until this trip.
There were loads of flies in my room both dead and alive. I reported it to the front desk or were like - yes it’s a problem in those particular rooms. I had never stayed by the stables before. It seems like if it’s a reoccurring problem we should be made aware and/or given a discount. I killed at least 5 flies and it’s hard to sleep knowing there are so many more. Definitely dampened the mood of my stay significantly.
A wonderful, immersive experience. Everything clean and comfortable and peaceful.
No notes. Everything was wonderful. I would caution others that the accommodations are within historic buildings so sound does carry. I was able to hear Phone conversations in other rooms in addition to dogs barking. It didn't bother me one bit but if sensitive to sound, plan for it.
We loved the sights and serenity.
A unique historical place. It felt like we were back in time. Very peaceful and serene.
Smaller portions in the restaurant. At least have the option to minimize.
