Rustic Lodge and Cottages Near Cumberland Falls
Frequently referred to as the "Niagara of the South," the Cumberland Falls is home to one of the rarest natural phenomena in the world. On certain nights when there’s a full moon, a lunar rainbow arcs over the mist of the waterfall, forming a pale, somewhat eerie sliver of light. Conditions have to be just right for the moonbow to appear, but the nearly 70-foot cascade is majestic under any circumstances. It’s the undisputed headliner at the Cumberland Falls State Resort Park, where both a rustic lodge and freestanding cottages tucked into the Daniel Boone National Forest provide waterfall gazers with a comfy spot to hit the hay.
The Dupont Lodge houses 51 rooms amid solid hemlock beams, knotty-pine paneling, and massive stone fireplaces. A renovation in 2006 left the rooms looking more modern than rough-hewn, with bright splashes of color on the walls and other contemporary accents. One- or two-bedroom cottages come equipped with all the comforts of home, including a full kitchen as well as a porch or patio outfitted with a grill. Inside, the cottages feature wood trim and several have fireplaces.
True to its name, the onsite Riverview Restaurant is lined with floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking the Cumberland River valley. Diners dig into southern dishes such as catfish and hush puppies. As supporters of the regional growers organization Kentucky Proud, Riverview chefs use local meats and produce whenever possible. A large observation deck offers fresh air and sweeping vistas of the river and its wakeboarding otters.

About Cumberland Falls State Resort Park
Just across the bay from the Land Between the Lakes National Recreation Area, Kentucky Dam Village is a modern campground comprised of 210 campsites, each equipped with water and electricity hookups. There's a cluster of service buildings at the center of the campground that offer modern amenities, too, including showers, restrooms, three dump stations, and a grocery store.
The 17,000-acre recreation area near the campground is a popular spot for bird watching as well as canoeing and bass fishing at its two lakes, Lake Barkley and Kentucky Lake. More than 200 miles of hiking trails crisscross the peninsula, ranging from short walks to lengthier routes.
