Roscoe Village Canal Boat

Monticello III Horse-Drawn Canal Boat Ride

 

 

If you're looking to leave the hectic pace of the modern world for a while, then a trip to the Monticello III Horse-Drawn Canal Boat and Historic Roscoe Village in Coshocton, Ohio may be just what you need this summer.

The kids (young and old) will love meeting Rock & Fred and Jasper & Bill, the huge Percheron draft horse teams that pull the canal boat along an original section of the Ohio and Erie Canal.

On the 45-minute canal boat ride you will also be entertained by the Canal Boat Captain as he explains 1800s life on the canal. You'll hear tall tales and a lot of history told in first person so you'll feel like you've actually glided right into the 1830s. You might even get to assist the helmsman in steering the canal boat while on your journey.
