Visit Grand Rivers, KY! We can’t wait to see you!
In Grand Rivers, Kentucky on the shores of Kentucky Lake…you’ll find Lighthouse Landing, a scenic little resort and marina with one of the prettiest sunset views in the Bluegrass State. The lighthouse and pier make this spot feel more like a coastal getaway than a place tucked along a Kentucky lake, with a viewing deck where you can look out across the water, watch sailboats pass, and take in the sun dropping over Kentucky Lake.
It is part of Lighthouse Landing Resort and Marina, which offers one-, two-, and three-bedroom cottages, along with a guest house and guest room for overnight stays. The marina has 190 open slips for powerboats and sailboats up to 42 feet, and Kentucky Lake itself covers just over 250 square miles, making it one of the best sailing spots in the Midwest. Visitors can book sailing lessons, spend time fishing or biking, relax by a fire pit, walk the shoreline, or make the short trip next door to Patti’s 1880’s Settlement for a meal.
Grand Rivers also sits at the northern entrance to Land Between the Lakes National Recreation Area, so Lighthouse Landing is just minutes from trails, wildlife, scenic drives, and more lake country. It’s an easy stop off I-24 for a peaceful view of the lighthouse and water, but it’s also the kind of place where booking a cottage for a longer stay makes the whole area even better.
