Fabulous stay in town for a wedding!

The facilities and the location were fabulous. While most amenities weren't open because it's still the off season, we were in town for a wedding and couldn't have picked a better place.

Our room was ready early, and was extremely clean. We had a great view of the lake. The property is beautifully maintained. Other than rough weather, it was a great few days away.

Peaceful area with great amenities when visiting with family. Did not realize lodge doesn't come with microwave or mini refrigerator definitely would look into cottage next time or bring cooler. The area doesn't have lots of food options so bring your own food is a must unless you're going to eat at lodge restaurant every day. Amazing trip with my sister will be back next year.

Loved our lodge room over looking the lake. Peaceful and quiet. Restaurant just ok.......it closed early the day we arrived. Would of been nice to know that ahead of time but other then that, we enjoyed our stay. Played the golf course. Great deal for $30 - 18 holes with an cart.
Nancy, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

This was a perfect retreat during our roadtrip to get away from cities and roads. We already had a good experience with Kentucky parks, and this just confirmed our view. For what you get out of the stay it was not that expensive. There is a small pool with sunchairs, which were at most half occupied. A few minutes walk from the lodges you had a lake with a beach area. There were a lot of families here during the day, but a bit calmer towards the evening. The lodges had a beautiful view of the lake, and balconies where we spent the evenings. Would definitely recommend staying here!

Pennyrile is a unique property with lots to offer. The rooms were extremely clean but the staff isn’t allowed in your room while you’re there so there is no upkeep while you’re there. The property needs some updating. This place has tons of potential. We thoroughly enjoyed our trip, it was like taking a step back in time.
