Moreover, the state is home to one of the biggest artificial lakes in the country, Kentucky Lake, as well as many other lakes. Plenty of trails are also spread across the state, including Sheltowee Trace Trail. This trail leads to Daniel Boone National Forest. To maximize the beautiful outdoor scenery here, you can go glamping. Check out the best yurts in Kentucky, USA, below.

1. Super Bon Bon yome in Monticello (from USD 110)
You will have easy access to essential amenities at this yurt rental in Kentucky, such as a bathhouse and a fully equipped community shelter with cooking supplies. The hosts provide a 5-gallon (18.93-liter) jug with a dispenser for your convenience, as the yome doesn’t have running water.
Just 15 minutes from the community shelter lies the tranquil waters of Lake Cumberland, surrounded by picturesque natural springs, creeks, and scenic hiking and trekking trails. Keep in mind that the water level in the lake rises in some seasons and the rocky beach space could be limited.
