Lake Cumberland State Resort Park will close on June 1.

It's is one of 4 state parks remaining closed to provide housing for low acuity COVID-19 patients in the event of a resurgence of the corona virus. 

The closing will include Rowena Landing Restaurant, the campground, trails, and picnic areas. The State Dock Marina and access road will remain open.

State Senator Max Wise & Rep. Jeff Hoover say this move will "bankrupt the economy of south central Kentucky".

The two are asking Governor Beshear to reconsider and evaluate alternatives.
