✨ Lexington Digital Curators Editorial Review

The historic natural spring where frontier frontiersmen camped in June 1775 and named the town 'Lexington' in honor of the Revolutionary War battle of Lexington, Massachusetts. Features subterranean artesian springs and shaded boardwalks.

💡 Local Bluegrass Insider Tip

Walk the wooden boardwalk loop to view 'The Boils' where natural artesian groundwater bubbles up through underground limestone conduits after rainfall.
