"Always a good stay! They know us really well there and work with our late schedules usually getting there"

Kentucky Dam Village State Resort Park

8/10 Good

"It’s a hotel from another era, but that is reflected in the highly affordable price. It was not immaculate, but it was fairly clean (and the important surfaces were clean). The staff was very friendly and helpful. It was a motel style room with the door in front, but felt very secure- as it was a brick front with no windows and a thick door. The windows are in the back of the unit with a view of the lake and a nice balcony with a couple chairs and a table! All things considered: Thumbs up!"
