Cadiz, Kentucky. An American small town with some big appeal—especially for outdoors types and lake-lovers.
…and your parents were fine with you playing outside ’til after dark?
Well… that’s this place.
Here, kids swap their button-pushing, screen-time for jumping and swimming. Parents get to unwind, forget about the bills and reconnect—all while knowing the kids are both safe and not bored?
Now that’s quality family time.
It’s a small place. Sometimes we have a ton going on. Other times, it’s pretty tame around here.
That’s why people like it. Find a few up-and-coming things on the right.

We’ve had a lot of April showers, so here’s to hoping we get a lot of May flowers! It’s about time to start planning those gardens. Wildflowers, and other native plants, make great additions to anyone’s garden – they attract butterflies and birds, often require less water and care than other plants, and look beautiful! Come check out Woodlands Nature Station’s Annual Native Plant & Wildflower Sale.
Grab plants for your garden, and don’t forget about Mom, either! This is a perfect opportunity to get your mom some flowers for Mother’s Day or just for her new garden.
Here is this year’s plant list:

Woodlands Nature Station/ Land Between the Lakes
If you guessed Hyper-Laser-Elk, you’re wrong (close, but still wrong).
But at Land Between the Lakes, you can see real Elk —and real Bison, mesmerizing laser light shows, and hundreds of humming birds at the Nature Station. Pioneer Cabins straight out of the 1800s, kayaks, canoes, and rare wildlife are all here at Land Between the Lakes National Recreation Area.
Some favor Rustic. Some love Vintage. Some are drawn to “Modern.”
Whatever the feel you’re after for your next group gathering, the Lake Barkley region is home to the most unique event centers.
From professional and business to weddings to family reunions and conferences into the hundreds, there’s a place that can—not only accommodate your group—but give them a great experience to remember forever.
Of the 123,439 lakes in the United States*, Lake Barkley’s size ranks in the top 0.045%. That’s big—58,000 Acres Big—and big enough to host some of the best fishing in the nation, and small enough to still be one of fishing’s best kept secrets.
