Lake Barkley: An Overview
Lake Barkley was created in 1964, 20 years after Kentucky Lake, by damming up the Cumberland River at Grand Rivers. While smaller and a bit more shallow than Kentucky Lake, Barkley holds its own with over 50,000 acres of water and over 1,000 miles of shoreline.

The communities of Cadiz, Eddyville, Kuttawa, Linton and Grand Rivers make up the homes and properties found at Lake Barkley.
