northeastern Kentucky, and the city's school system consistently ranks

Washington also offers numerous antique and gift shops, handcrafted
silver jewelry, craft shops, custom picture framing and a historic

Recreation
Maysville offers plenty of ways to enjoy the great outdoors. Many of
the outdoor recreation opportunities are centered around the Ohio
River. For the ATV, dirt bike and horseback riding enthusiast, there
are numerous riding trails overlooking the Ohio River Valley or rolling
through the surrounding hills. Riverboat rides on the Ohio River are
another popular attraction. The Maysville Mason County Recreation Park
offers swimming, tennis, softball leagues, croquet, miniature golf,
fishing and more. The Paradise Breeze Family Entertainment Center is a

forested ridges, narrow ravines and more than 3,400 miles of sandstone
cliffs. Over Six hundred miles of trails provide a quiet escape to
remote places for hikers and horseback riders, with winding rivers and
gentle streams. The 269-mile Sheltowee Trace National Recreation Trail
