Nestled in the heart of Greenup County, Kentucky, Greenbo Lake State Resort Park is a haven for nature lovers and adventure seekers. The park, named after the beautiful 225-acre Greenbo Lake, offers a perfect blend of relaxation and outdoor activities.


A Tribute to Local Heritage

The park's lodge, named after Jesse Hilton Stuart, a celebrated poet and native of Greenup County, is a nod to the area's rich cultural history. Visitors can explore Stuart's literary works and personal memorabilia in the lodge's reading room, adding a touch of intellectual charm to their stay.


Activities for Every Enthusiast

Greenbo Lake is a paradise for anglers, boasting two state records for largemouth bass. The lake also teems with bluegill, crappie, catfish, and trout, making it a favorite spot for fishing enthusiasts. For those who prefer to be on the water, the marina offers rentals for pontoon boats, canoes, kayaks, and more.


Hiking and biking enthusiasts can traverse the park's 16 miles of trails, which range from moderate to challenging, winding through the lush Greenbo Forest. Birdwatchers will delight in the diverse avian species that call the park home, from colorful songbirds in summer to migrating waterfowl in fall.


Family-Friendly Fun

The park features a lakeside swimming pool complete with a spiraling waterslide, perfect for families looking to cool off during the warmer months. Campers can choose from RV sites or primitive camping spots, all set against the backdrop of Kentucky's natural beauty.


A Place to Unwind

Whether you're rocking on the lodge's front porch, soaking in the tranquil views of Greenbo Lake, or dining at the park's restaurant, Greenbo Lake State Resort Park offers a retreat from the hustle and bustle of everyday life.


Greenbo Lake State Resort Park isn't just a destination; it's an experience.
