This small island surrounded by lake Cumberland is beautiful and rich with history of this area long ago. Great place to drive around and enjoy the huge old trees. There's lots of great picnic areas to enjoy, some of them are just a short walk from the car to beautiful secluded picnic tables available to enjoy a meal or Great scenery. Theres also a camp ground on the island for all types of camping with info and staff available to help you. The golf course on the island offers a amazing course with unbelievable views of Lake Cumberland. They also have a great boat launching area with easy access and great parking for your car and boat trailers. Great place for a peaceful drive and also some great places to explore in the woods.

First time there , very nice set- up . In good condition a lot of elevation changes but very playable.. only issue was pace of play 5 hour round one group was holding up the entire side and no one to regulate. Still will definitely play again
