Researchers Guide to Accommodations

 

I receive so many emails asking me for directions and places to stay from researchers, so I decided to make a page with a partial list of accommodations etc. that can be used for Carroll, Gallatin, Henry and Owen counties! If you know of other accommodations that you would like to add here, email me.

 In no way does this reflect any sponsorship or recommendation to any establishment listed below. This is just information that I gathered from the Internet for your use. Most of the Hotel/Motel information was found at Kentucky Lodging Locator http://www.lodginglocator.org/state/us-ky.cfm
