Southern Kentucky Vacations 

With more shoreline than many coastal states, Southern Kentucky Vacations region is a mecca for boating, swimming, fishing, water skiing, and just about every other water activity imaginable. Home to four Kentucky State Parks, the area is a great place to camp out beneath the stars. Rent a houseboat at Lake Cumberland and explore the lake's 1,255 miles of scenic waters and tucked-away coves. Marinas, cabins and lodges can also be found at beautiful Dale Hollow Lake and Green River Lake. And adventure abounds at Big South Fork National River and Recreation Area, home to natural sandstone arches and some of the best whitewater rafting in the Bluegrass State.
