Q: What is there
for children to do at your resort and surrounding area?
A: Mother Nature provides most of the
entertainment at our resort and surrounding area. We offer a small
private beach with picnic tables, and fire pit. We recommend wearing
water shoes due to the rocky approach into the lake. Fishing gear and
license are available nearby. Sailboat rentals are available at
Lighthouse Landing, while other boats such as kayaks, fishing boats,
ski boats and pontoon boats are available to rent at nearby
facilities. The clean, warm water of Kentucky Lake is a great place to
teach children how to swim, sail, ski or fish. Take the kids horseback
riding at Happy Trails Riding Stables or Pete’s Stables or play
miniature golf at Maggie’s Jungle. The Land Between the Lakes has
biking/hiking trails where you can see and enjoy an abundance of
wildlife. Bikes are available to rent nearby. Take a drive through the
Elk & Bison Prairie, walk through the Nature Center, canoe on Honker
Lake, hike around Hematite Lake, stargaze at the LBL Planetarium, or
visit the Homeplace, where life is re-created on a mid-19th century
Southern farm. For a calendar of events call the LBL at 270/924-2000
or visit them on the Internet at www.lbl.org.
Q: Can we bring our
pets?
A: Sorry, but we have a No Pets Policy.
Kennels are located nearby.
Q: We have a
cottage reserved at Lighthouse Landing and would like to bring our
boat with us. Do you have slips available?
A: Many of our resort customers bring
their own boats (power and sail welcome). We have a limited amount of
transient slips available, but we can almost always find you a slip.
We do not take advance reservations for slips; just let us know at the
time you are making the reservation for a cottage. The nightly charge
is $.75 per foot. The weekly charge is $3.75 per foot.
Q: Are there
restaurants and shopping nearby?
A: Absolutely! We may be secluded and you
might have the lake all to yourself but when it comes to eating, some
of the finest restaurants in Western Kentucky are within walking
distance from us. Check out the “2” pork chop” @ Patti’s 1880’s, ask
Irene to fix you a “Turkey Gobbler” sandwich at The Liteside Café or
get some real country cooking at The Iron Kettle then go next door for
an ice cream cone at the Dairy Dream all located within 4 blocks from
us. For a great sandwich, salad or BBQ try Mr. BBQ located
about ˝ of a mile from us on Hwy 453. Knoth’s BBQ, Scarlet’s and the
Pelican are located within an easy 4-mile drive of us. For a great
cheeseburger and the latest movies visit the Calvert Drive-In Theatre,
one of the few remaining drive-in theatres, open since 1953. If you
plan to cook your own meals, DeWeese IGA is located in Grand Rivers
and offers a good selection of meats and produce. Ask Jeff to cut you
some, melt in your mouth, filets. We also have antique, clothing and
gift stores located in and around Grand Rivers.
Q: Can you buy
alcohol in Grand Rivers?
A: Grand Rivers and the surrounding lakes
area are located in dry counties. The nearest place to get a drink in
a restaurant is Kuttawa, 10 miles east on I-24. The nearest place to
buy alcohol, in package stores, bars and restaurants, is Paducah,
which is about 25 miles west on I-24.

personal checks for cottage payment?

can get it at least 2 weeks prior to your arrival.
Upon arrival, we take only cash or credit/debit cards (Master Card,
Visa, Discover). If you are paying with cash , we require a valid
credit card on file for the damage deposit.
Q: Can we rent a
cottage for 1 night only?

at least 2 nights or longer (3 nights on a holiday). Walk-ins are
welcome for one night stay. Our hours are from 8:30 am to 5:00 pm.
