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.

|
|
|
Southwestern Kentucky has a four-season climate with warm, humid summers and cold, wet winters. The climate classification is humid subtropical. The greatest rainfall occurs in the winter and early spring, especially March. September and October are the driest months due to the higher frequency of slow-moving, high-pressure systems. Thunderstorms are common in spring and summer. Average annual precipitation is 49 inches and snowfall ranges from 4 to 10 inches. Snow cover rarely lasts for more than a few days, although it is occasionally hit by major snowstorms. This area is also prone to freezing rain and ice storms. Other severe storms, such as tornadoes are possible, but infrequent in southwestern Kentucky. When they do occur, however, it's usually west of the Cumberland Plateau.
