What guests think

At Lake Cumberland State Resort Park, travelers consistently praise the stunning lake views, peaceful natural setting, and generally friendly staff, while noting that the lodge and rooms feel dated and some amenities or services can be limited, especially off-season.

Lake and balcony views, quiet nights, and wildlife sightings are frequent highlights. Cleanliness and maintenance are mixed, with reports of dirty rooms, plumbing or hot-water issues, and broken ice machines alongside many comments about clean, comfortable stays. Dining is inconsistent: the restaurant is sometimes closed or buffet-only with limited or costly options, and nearby alternatives require a drive, though some guests enjoyed meals and the dock restaurant when available. Expect rustic scenery and standout views, but plan ahead for closures and aging facilities.

We were very disappointed that the lodge restaurant was not open for lunch or dinner on Monday and Tuesday. Because our room had no fridge or microwave, we had to cut our stay short, since there was nowhere within an hour to get something to eat. When we were checking out, the lady was extremely helpful and we found out that there were actually rooms available with a fridge and microwave. We will definitely be back. The hot tub was the nicest I have ever seen. The indoor pool was also very nice. The view from the lodge restaurant was to die for, if it had just been open.

Staff was super nice. The entire lodge was very clean. The indoor pool had very strong chlorine odor, almost over whelming so we didn’t swim in it. The continental breakfast was expensive and no protein foods. Waffles , wrapped pastries , cereal. We had to ask for yogurt and were given 1 kid size sweetened yogurt per person . 1/2 of our party decided against eating breakfast there. No healthy options, besides an apple. People were leveling the dining room after seeing what was offered. If the breakfast was better and the pool was not over loaded with chlorine, I would give it a better review. Again the staff was amazing ! Very nice.

First of all the only pleasant thing during our stay was the staff. We booked 2 nights with Expedia for $300. When we got there our room was very musty and didn’t have a refrigerator. The staff was able to move us to another room but wasn’t able to upgrade us to one with a refrigerator because we used Expedia to book the room. The lodge restaurant, mini golf, and camp store were closed both days we were there. Basically nothing opens until Thursday. The ice machine was out of order and the WiFi/internet was down. We will never stay here again!

The only issue was the cafe, l assumed there would be menu options looking on the webpage. However, the only two options at the supper meal were the limited salad bar and taco bar. I was disappointed that no other options were available, as no other restaurants were available for miles.

I really wish we had booked the room for longer.

They charged almost $14 for the type of breakfast that's usually free at all other places we have stayed. The supper menu was VERY limited, & it was terrible. But there's no places close to eat. We learned our lesson, & made sure we were closer to town so we could have decent meals. Which was inconvenient because we would have liked to relax & enjoy the wonderful scenery at the lodge. The room was a nice size, clean & comfortable. A place we won't return though, due to the restaurant.
