Here in Kentucky, you don’t have to go far for a relaxing waterfront getaway. Between lovely lakes like Lake Cumberland, Kentucky Lake, and Lake Barkley, as well as waterside gems such as Kentucky’s Pennyrile Forest State Resort Park and Jenny Wiley State Resort Park, opportunities abound for R&R in the Bluegrass. But in terms of superlatives, Lighthouse Landing Resort & Marina in Grand Rivers might just be our favorite place for a relaxing waterfront getaway in Kentucky.

Would you believe us if we told you that this postcard-perfect scene isn't from Maine or Michigan, but Kentucky?
