Grand-Rivers is a quaint waterfront resort community located in southwest Kentucky's Land Between the Lakes Region. The population is less than 500 full-time residents. The village of Grand Rivers is situated at the north entrance to the Land Between the Lakes, and lies on both sides of the Kentucky Lake and Lake Barkley. It's a charming place to live or to visit, surrounded by water and with a Main Street that's lined with boutiques, antique stores and eateries. Two of the area's finest resort marinas are located in Grand Rivers; one on each lake with full service and unlimited water access. Picturesque waterfront cottages and condos line the lakeshore. Each season is beautiful; blossoming trees in the spring, lush green in the summer and the stunning rich colors of fall. Other attractions in Grand Rivers include Patti's 1880 Settlement and Restaurant and the Badgett Playhouse. The Land Between the Lakes National Recreation Area has a great variety of outdoor activities, including fishing, boating, hiking, horseback riding, bicycling, golf, wildlife viewing, camping, scenic drives and more. For those not into sports, there's antique shopping, amusement parks, water parks, history museums and art galleries, live shows and theaters, with something for everyone in the family.
