The Lakes

Kentucky Lake and Lake Barkley are considered two of the finest year-round fishing lakes in the country and host many national bass tournaments. The lakes offer all the things you would expect: miles and miles of uncrowded, almost private waters to boat on, quiet inlets for picnicking, sunbathing, swimming, and hundreds of miles of unspoiled shoreline to leisurely explore.
