All Inclusive Resorts around KY lake??

[TrepMan]

Gang - My wife's family is planning this reunion again in 2 years. Since the James Family is from the Land Between the lakes area (I believe way before there was a KY Lake), they are talking about having it in that area.



I know the Moors is a great fishing resort, but this crew wants an all inclusive place that the price includes:



- All meals

- Horse back riding

- pool or beach

- snack bar/place

- Formal "program" for the little tykes that can be "checked-in" when the adults go riding or such



I've done some preliminary web-searches and most seem to be basic cabin/resorts with horse back riding as an option off site. I have a personal stake in this as i'm NOT a horse back kind of guy, and if we can find a place that also has a marina/ramp I can take my boat and take the kids/adults fishing as another activity.



But, as I said, this crew like a fixed price (plus tip) for not having to worry about shopping, cooking, paying for every meal.



Any ideas?

Trep -



Check out Kentucky Dam Village State Resort. It's been there for a while and I believe it can satisfy all your needs. I've been there many times in my youth and enjoyed it. Good luck!

Trep, remember, it is Kentucky Lake not Club Med!! All inclusives are tough to find.

Not that I drove around a lot in the area, but I don't remember seeing anything like horseback riding when I've been down there. But that may just be the area around the lake that the Moors is in; it is so congested that you'd have a hard time finding trails. Other areas are much more open.



Try calling Shirley and see if they can do such a thing. 800-626-5472. They have al the other elements you listed.....



Or..... She might be able to refer you to a resort that can meet your needs.

Dan - Thanks buddy, i'll look into it.



Tox - I know, but 1/2 of her side of the family are big into the all inclusive thing. Which is why we've been a real ranch up in Colorado, and a "resort" ranch in WI. Me, i'd just book us all cabins at the Moors, rent a few boats and fish for a week! But that is NOT what this group does.



Staci - I've done some research and there are a lot of horse riding places on the land between the lakes, just haven't found one yet that is a sleep over/cabin type-place.



Thanks guys!!



Any one else ideas?

OHHHH, Joe, Forgot about the "dry" county thing in the state parks! I'll just make sure our family stocks up first!!!

I have an idea Michael.. I'l leave Nancy and my "kids" home, and you leave Becca and your kids home and you and I will have a great time fishing



PS, don't you dare tell Becca I said this..

Trep-

Green Turtle Bay on Barkley would be another one to check out...that's where we rent our houseboats...they have quite a spread...not sure if 'all inclusive' is an option...

Andy -Thanks, we'll add that to our list and see what the relatives think. I'm just excited about the idea of NOT having to fly with 2 kids, carseats and stuff!!!
