We have stayed here in the winter a couple of times and its always great. They have raised the winter price a bit from the last time , $59.00 including tax. Still a bargain for such a nice place. More

In looking for a new place to take our yearly visits with the 11 person family, we started with KY Dam Village and Marina. The cottages at the village are great. We got 2 next to each other (said they would try but couldn't promise) and it worked perfect. There were a few ants in one of the cottages, but... More

My parents, my wife, and I stayed the evening of 11/18 as we were in town for a convention. We stayed at Village Green. The State park is nice. Our room was 173 and was dated. If you don't mind the room being older, it was nice and very clean. $53 per night was well worth the value. The only... More

Just-a-lil_birdy --- Thank you so much for your review of our Harbor Lights Restaurant! Of course we agree we have a "gem" here. Often it is overlooked by folks visiting the area.

Spent 5 nights here. It is wonderful! All of the employees, both desk and housekeeping, were friendly and helpful. Had a couple problems with the heat in my room, it was handled within 20 minutes. Restaurant on premises is great. The park surroundings were very peaceful and relaxing. Will definitely be going back. More

The staff was very nice and room clean. It was as nice as other hotels we have stayed lately, but cost less. All rooms listed as second floor are actually on the street level. These rooms also have balconies that face the lake. Nice bonus is that the price was also less than other hotels in the areas. Another bonus... More

after travelling to a destination that did not work out for us, we were desparate to find one in the vicinity. While at a diner, a gentleman camper suggested this place, we called 411 for their number and called to find they had accomodations, even though there was a huge golf tourney going on there. We stayed at the executive... More

I was a little underwhelmed with the thought of spending time in a state park resort...with our state putting employees on unpaid furloughs, my first preconceived notions included: run down, shabby, ill-managed, etc. When I called to make reservations, I was greeted by an amazingly professional and helpful clerk, who cheerfully took great care of me....when I called the week...
