With more than 52,000 acres of water and 1,225 miles of shoreline, Lake Cumberland is considered one of the finest fishing and boating areas in the Eastern United States. Perched high above the watery expanse, the park offers visitors a wide array of recreational opportunities, from tennis to trails. Plenty to do at Lake Cumberland State Resort Park both on and off the lake.
Location: Lake Cumberland State Resort Park is located in Russell County Kentucky, just south of Jamestown, on the northwestern edge of Lake Cumberland.
Recreation: Lake Cumberland has an abundance of largemouth, smallmouth, white and Kentucky bass, bluegill, crappie, rockfish, and walleye. The State Dock offers both open and covered slips up to 100' long with rental fishing boats, pontoon boats, and ski boats. The 18-hole miniature golf course is perfect for family fun, April-November, and the 18-hole disc golf course is available year round. A four-mile loop trail around the Lure Lodge area and a 1.5-mile one-way trail (3 miles total including return) let hikers enjoy the forest. Interpretive programs on native plants, animals, and local history are conducted at various times throughout the year by a full-time naturalist, and daily summer activities are conducted by recreation staff.
