Are you looking for some ideas for things you can do in the greater Cincinnati, Ohio and northern Kentucky on your summer staycation.  Here is small list I put together.  I have to give credit to the CincyMoms.com forum for some of these ideas:

1. Visit the Cincinnati Zoo (voted #1 family attraction in Cincinnati)
2. Newport Aquarium
3. Stay a night at the Great Wolf Lodge in Mason (indoor waterpark)
4. How can you forget, King’s Island ?
5. Drive to the Kentucky Horse Park
6. Mammoth Caves
7. Six Flag’s Kentucky Kingdom
8. Columbus’s COSI isn’t too far away.
9. Hocking Hills makes a nice weekend getaway
10. Hueston Woods State Park is a great staycation destination
11. The Beach Water Park is a great way to cool off on your hot staycation
12. Have you been to CoCo Key in Cincinnati yet?
13. We love visiting the Cincinnati Museum Center
14. Coney Island is home to Sunlite Pool – the world’s largest recirculating swimming pool!

Do you have some other ideas? Be sure to submit your staycation idea or you can comment on this post to let me know of other great staycation ideas for Cincinnati.

If you have never had a chance to visit National Museum of the USAF in Dayton, Ohio you are missing in on real treat. This is a great staycation idea for anyone in Southeast Ohio, Kentucky or Indiana. The Museum is currently scheduling it’s 85th anniversary and now would be a great time to visit. One of the best parts of the museum is that the admission is FREE!

One of the things I love about this museum is that it has such a wide range of nearly 400 exhibits that would keep people of all ages entertained everything from the Wright Flyer to the B2 Bomber.
