Barren River Lake State Resort Park

Beautiful setting. Very poor water pressure. Very dark room. Only 1 light fixture.

The park and lake are beautiful, but the rooms in the lodge are terrible. Lights didn't work, commode was loose, the carpet was a hundred years old, the back door to the patio had a hole in it. The TV tube was going out and it was unwatchable. It appeared that they were in the process of updating the lodge. All I can say is they had better. No one wants to spend the night under those conditions.

Our room balcony was taken over by gnats. The ironing board was lacking a pad. The grounds were well landscaped and clean. The dining hall was beautiful. The food was very good and the portions were plentiful.

Lodge Rooms are outdated! Needs new furniture, paint, doors, curtains, and mini blinds! Refrigerators, Microwaves, and Big Screen Tv's on a wall mount need to be included in each lodge room because there are days the lodge restaurant is not open to serve food! The outside patio of my lodge room was dirty and entire place needs to be pressure washed! The outdoor pool is very nice, and the grounds was clean and mowed!! Customer Service is excellent and very accomodating at the front desk!

Just wish the beach was open in the pub. Other than that, it was great.

It was really amazing. Wonderful place to be and relax.
An excellent service from the people in the restaurant.
Can only recommend other to try out this place.

Beautiful view of lake and love the balconies.
Pool should be open later than 7 pm in summer.

Beautiful grounds & amazing views!!
Rooms are just outdated. Staff is amazing!

It is due for update. Pool was great.
Karen in the Lodge dining was EXCELLENT!!! Food was very good.
All the folks we encountered who worked at Barren were delightful.
The bar was not open- due to lack of help. Our room was clean, a bit musty & needs an update. But, we understand it on the calendar.

Seeing all the deer and nature was awesome. The place was beautiful, clean and well maintained. So peaceful and quiet. I would stay here again for sure.

This was a great park. Well maintained, safe and convenient. Will definitely be back.

Relax

Check in was easy, room was clean and comfortable, and the balcony was delightful. We were there right before peak season so nothing was open (restaurants, pool, etc) but the facility itself was nice.

Lodge room had a balcony overlooking the River. Beautiful.

The workers cutting trees while we were there and the stump grinding, also kitchen pans and pots, there was only 2, not as stocked as it advertises

The stay is simple yet very comfortable with access to hikes, bike trails and water activities!

Spent one night while traveling from North Carolina to Missouri. Room was very clean and comfortable. Decor was a little dated. Had breakfast in the restaurant. Food was very good and some of the best prices we have seen recently. Service was over the top.

Enjoyed the quiet, beautiful property during the 1st week of October. Lakeside sunsets were amazing! The villa was clean and comfortable. Loved convenient restaurant and pub on property with reasonable prices and friendly staff. Went to Crystal Onyx cave and rented a pontoon from the Narrows Marina. Our first trip to Kentucky from Indiana and we look forward to another visit.

It was a nice park. Hotel wasn't anything special. Comfortable bed, dated rooms. You hear everything in the connecting rooms. No fridg or microwave even though the cabinets were made for them. Pool still under construction. The park staff was nice enough to mow the grass right outside everyones room at 7:55 In the morning. Brilliant. That should say somthing about the way the property is managed.
