Pleasant Hill Shaker Village

Pleasant Hill Shaker Village

I've been to many of the Shaker Villages, several of my ancestors were founders of the Hancock Shakers and New Lebanon Shakers.  I didn't have enough time to visit this village and I'm sure I'll be back.  When I do, I'll upload more pictures.  This village also acts as a hotel and many of the houses rent out the rooms for reasonable prices.  This village also sits near the Kentucky River and has a steamboat river tour twice a day.  The Shakers were a very industrious people and built their own dock on the river to ship their products to market.
