Riverboat Cruises

Sightseeing cruise with late lunch

A 65-foot double-decker riverboat, the Cumberland Star plies the headwaters of Lake Cumberland in much the way packet boats connected the river towns along the Cumberland before Wolf Creek dam was built.  Sit back and relax as you watch the riverbanks glide by.  Blue Herons, cormorants, and the occasional eagle can be spotted enjoying the solitude and fishing the waters of the lake. Sharp-eyed guests may spot snapping turtles, or even an occasional beaver.
Meets at the Mouth of the Laurel Boat Ramp.
Trip is approximately 2-2.5 hours. Late lunch served after raft trips board the boat. Appropriate for all age groups. *Handicapped accessible with assistance except during mid-September and October. Please call for more information for handicapped guests.*
