I visited this park, not knowing what to expect, and I was pleasantly surprised. The staff was very polite and accomodating. The room was nice, but you could tell by the lowness of the ceiling that this is an older lodge. The view from the room, as others have mentioned, is gorgeous. One surprise, though, is that a continental breakfast... More

We spent one night at Pennyrile. the view of the lake was beautiful from our balcony. The food in the dining room was excellent although the service was slow. We hiked the Indian Bluff Trail and part of the Pennyrile Nature Trail. There were beautiful dry bluffs and boulders.

The welcome center on I= 24 gave the wrong directions. Take exit 26. There is no Exit 26. After finally finding the State Park we checked in and the room key did not work. We were switched to different room. I got my charges on the credit card and was charged for smoking in the room. The balcony had an... More

The key to a stay at Pennyrile Forest State Resort is to have your expectations in line. It is not meant to be a 5 star luxurious resort. The cabins are very rustic but clean, quaint and surrounded by beautiful scenery. We recently went for a wedding and everything was beautiful. The food was delicious and the staff went out... More

The large windows gave us an awesome view of a lightening show, not to mention the beautiful view of the fog covered lake in the morning. It didn't matter the swimming pool was closed or that the lake was down so far that we couldn't use... More

I made the trek out west to stay at PFSRP as part of my quest to spend the night at all 17 (18, if you count the shared Breaks) Kentucky state parks and was not disappointed. The original lodge is rustic and interesting, the rooms are comfortable, the view of the lake from the private balcony is peaceful and lovely,... More

Our daughter and her fiance' were married at Pennyrile Forest State Resort in a beautiful outdoor wedding on 8/3/2012. The reception was to be held outdoors under tents that were set up the night before. Severe storms passed through the area and destroyed the tents not to mention all the rain! The park manager and event coordinator as well as... More

I enjoyed my stay at Pennyrile Forest State Resort so much! The resort is very secluded. Loved the private balcony and view from my room. I was there with 2 of my colleagues on a business trip. We got together in the library room to unwind and download after a hard day's work. Very peaceful and relaxing. Wi-fi worked great... More
