We visited Stoney Cove Trailhead beach fiesta then the Trailwater Recreation Area. We've been here…read morebefore in July and the water was definitely more accessible then, this time there was no Sandy shore. Caution- no restrooms but a porta potty and Stone Cove. We then went to the Trailwater recreation area and they had very clean restrooms (definitely a must for this pregnant lady!). The kids loved the space to run around and throw rocks in the river.

My friends and I are regularly kayakers, we were excited to try kayaking in a cavern. This kayak…read moretrip is extremely easy, but it was very cool to be in the dark with the neon glow of the kayaks. It is consistently cold in the cavern, and we dressed appropriately and were comfortable. This included neoprene fingerless gloves, wool socks, and clean water shoes. You cannot wear regular shoes as they scratch the clear kayaks. Our guide, Drew, and his "photographer", Matthew, were excellent. We felt safe, he provided a good amount of information, and had a sense of humor. A really cool experience in the Red River Gouge area.

Underground kayaking was such a cool, fun experience! It was my first time kayaking, so I was…read morepretty nervous, but our guide was incredibly patient and kind. He took great photos of each of us and our group. The group was small, which I loved because it never felt rushed. The colorful lights you see as you make your way through the cave are very awesome. Just a heads up, your feet and bottom will get very cold! Definitely wear layers and socks. We went in the summer and were still freezing by the end. Still, it was absolutely one of the best things I've done.

Beautiful views of the lake and plenty of shade, as the trail is heavily wooded. This trail isn't especially difficult but there are some small up-and-down parts of the trail. I wouldn't call it moderately difficult but it isn't flat. The lake features fishing and kayaking.

We hiked the fern valley trail. It was pretty easy. Well suited for little ones and adults. There's…read morea few spots near the lake where you might have to help smaller kids but our daughter and her friend managed well enough. Saw a lot of little toads on the trail. Lots of butterflies and squirrels. We managed to see a Heron fishing and flying. That made the trip in my opinion. We walked around the lodge. Not too much to see in there. Looks like a decent enough place to stay. Staff wasn't very friendly but I guess you can't expect much out of government employees having to work a holiday.

I've been going to Greenbo Lake since I was a kid. I've camped, boated, stayed in the lodge, ate at…read morethe restaurant, and this week, I went to the community pool for the first time. The lodge has several rooms available. Nothing fancy, but clean and affordable. The restaurant has never disappointed me. There used to be a pretty good buffet, but not sure if that is still available. It's been too long since I've camped, so I can't speak of the campgrounds. I enjoyed an afternoon at the community pool, $8, adult admission. The pool was clean and had plenty of lifeguards on duty. The water slide looked fun. There are several lockers if you want to store anything. On the road close to the pool, there are several picnic shelters you can reserve with grills, restrooms and a playground. There is also an outdoor pavilion where concerts are held. There is lots to do at Greenbo, and it is a gorgeous Kentucky State Park.

It is 7 miles on the map but actually 9 because you have to walk back to the trail head on the Red River Gorge parkway. Very nice scenery through the whole trail. Due to different altitude and participation, very diverse plant life and rock formation . Marking is pretty spare, easy to get lost. There is a visitor center and gift shop on Red River gorge scenic road. Seems like a lot of people don't know that.
