Barren River Lake Information

If you’re considering lake homes for sale in Kentucky, look 90 miles northeast of Nashville to the Barren River Lake. Constructed in 1964, the lake not only helps to curb seasonal flooding of the Barren River, but it also serves as a playground for recreation enthusiasts all year long.

Barren River Lake meanders through Allen, Monroe, and Barren County, spanning across 10,100 acres of land. The natural integrity of the lake is preserved by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, providing premium outdoor conditions. Anglers appreciate the lake’s clean and inviting waters, as they host a variety of fish. Catfish, crappie, and bluegill populate the lake in strong numbers, along with hybrid, white, largemouth, and yellow bass. Catfish fishing is sublime at night, and it’s recommended you cast your rod during their spawning season in June. There’s also a good chance you might catch a 15-inch or larger largemouth bass.

Even if fishing isn’t your sport of choice, there are countless other reasons to test the water. Before diving in, stop by the Barren River Lake State Park Marina, which features rental boats and pontoons, 100 open boat slips, a boat launch, and praise-worthy customer service. Once on the lake, feel free to jet along in a high-speed boat, splash around swimming, or skip across the surface on a jet ski. While you’re at it, explore the lake’s three largest islands, two of which are about one square mile each and sit in the widest portion of the lake. Lake properties for sale have the best spot in town, surrounded by water revelry at its best.

With miles of shoreline to indulge in, there’s just as much fun to be had off the water as on. Enjoy the scenery with a picnic or test your aim by hunting in the back hills. The Barren River Lake is surrounded by several well-maintained hiking and horseback riding trails, in addition to basketball, tennis, and volleyball courts. Lakefront properties have full access to these amenities, and they also enjoy spectacular sunsets. Lake-view cabins also reside within steps of some of the state’s best golfing. Since it’s ideally located along Kentucky’s prized golf trail, the lake hosts its own top-notch golf course, the Barren River Lake State Resort Park. The course is both challenging and addictive, ensuring you’ll return to it time and time again. If you’d like to live on a Barren River Lake Golf Course, visit GolfHomes.com for property listings and details. Two epic geocaches are stashed around the lake awaiting true treasure hunters, while the Mammoth Cave National Park invites the anyone with an appreciation for the mysterious to play in the dark a while. The Barren River Lake celebrates the outdoors by making the wild feel like home.

This 10,050 acre lake is located in Barren and Allen counties. Warm water fish species dominate the creel, with stockings of striped bass in the lake and rainbow trout below the dam. Black bass, bluegill, channel catfish and crappie are found in large numbers.
