Do not miss the Wildlife Station! The staff were outstanding. A special thanks to Tim who was informative, attentive, and entertaining. The man is a gem.

Beautiful area. Everywhere you look there is something to do. Dish, hunt, horseback ride, site see, hike, mountain biking. Pretty much anything you can want to do outdoors.

Don’t come in the winter time or early spring time. There is not much to do. We wanted to visit the planetarium, but it was too cloudy to see anything. We wanted to go kayaking, horseback riding, and ziplining, but in March, all such activities are unavailable. We did however go for a two-hour hike and see elk and bison up close. Overall though, we still had a good trip. The lake was absolutely beautiful.

Such a beautiful area. It feels so pristine and loved, and the terrain and nature is so unique. What a pleasant surprise! The area is gorgeous if you want to hike, just drive, camp, whatever. They have a lovely Buffalo and Elk preserve that you can drive through. That was so lovely to see these animals in natural habitat, living their lives as they would have centuries ago. The planetarium is a nice touch, and the staff at the visitor’s center was friendly and helpful. The little museum they have there doesn’t pull any punches and tells the whole truth of the area. More than that though, for nature lovers, it just *feels* wonderful, in that way that can’t be expressed in words, but you know it instantly when you arrive.

What an awesome spot. We came in the Winter and therefore the off-season, but it was still gorgeous. Miles and miles of scenic drives and campgrounds and other sporting activities. Nice visitor center with a cute little gift shop. Definite highlight was the Elk and Bison Prairie drive. Is there anything more American than watching Elk and Bison graze in their former natural habitat!

Being new to Western KY, we went quickly to LBtLakes. Wow – we were very impressed. Cannot wait for the leaves to change and to get out there and hike.

We love Land Between the lakes, under two hours from Nashville, two Lakes, Barclay and Kentucky. Two Buffalo and Elk Herds, you can see them up close, and drive the two mile loop round one, lovely in Winter with the snow. Woodlands Wildlife Station, owls, wolves, coyotes, etc. An 1850’s settlement to see how life was in the old days, lots of camping and picnic spots, historical grave sites, Planetarium, a quiet parkway to drive along and of course Pattis 1800 settlement I2″ pork chop) at the North End, great at Christmas with Grand Rivers completely illuminated and Santa in his Sleigh. There is a range of accommodation from condo/resort style to cottages on the lake. A great day/overnight trip from Nashhille

This park really does not have to much to offer a Nashvillian. There are campgrounds, fishing spots, pioneer living history and birdwatching spots all closer to Nashville. There are also grazing pens for American Bison and Elk, something fairly rare in the East Coast, but for someone who has visited Yellowstone and Yosemite it is just not really special. Camping, fishing and hunting seem to be the specialty here. A living history complex, The Homeplace 1850, is also apparently popular as well. I drove the entire length of the park, and found no hiking trails and little else but picnic spots, campgrounds and cemeteries, and if the attractions stated are the highlights of this park, they are somewhat disappointing. There are many more amazing places in Kentucky and Tennessee to visit such as Fort Donelson immediately to the South. At least its free.

Great park! Plenty of recreational opportunities including fishing, hiking, atv area. Also a lot of educational opportunities for both adults and children. Facilities are all well maintained.
