Shaker Village

Welcome to Shaker Village of Pleasant Hill, a renowned destination where over 3,000 acres of land invite you to explore and discover the rich history of the Kentucky Shakers. Once the third largest Shaker community in the United States from 1805 to 1910, the vibrant site offers experiences that engage the imagination and excite the spirit of exploration.

At Shaker Village, the journey of exploration is endless, promising visitors a chance to connect with history and nature. Here, our hospitality is as spirited as the adventures—offering visitors fresh-air activities and new discoveries at every turn.

The Village’s campus is a hub for modern-day adventurers and learners, with The Historic Centre, The Farm, and The Preserve serving as the main points of exploration, each offering unique experiences and activities for both kids and adults.

Our Inn has been a welcoming retreat for travelers for over two centuries. Featuring guest rooms, suites, and private cottages in 13 restored Shaker buildings, the Inn offers accommodations with Shaker reproduction furniture, hardwood floors, and scenic views.

Dining at the Village is a culinary journey where traditional Shaker recipes and seasonal Kentucky dishes highlight the freshest ingredients. Visitors can enjoy meals prepared with produce straight from our garden, accompanied by ingredients sourced from local farmers.
