My brother and I visited here June 15th-17th and stayed in #3. Our view of the lake on our back deck was beautiful and out our front door was the playground and pool. There was a neat fishing spot on a bend we could walk to and we rented a fishing boat the next day. Sure can't beat their prices on ANYTHING! We had everything we needed right here, marina, boat rentals, store, restaurant, BAR, and EVERYONE we met was so nice and accommodating. The lady who took my reservation is also the one who checked us in (I feel horrible for forgetting her name)and she was so wonderfully helpful. She did an amazing job at fulfilling all our needs. The owner has several sweet dogs that roam around the property, which to me, makes it feel like home. We made friends with his dog Missy who needed to cool off one day and politely knocked on our door and waited to be asked in to cool off. LOL She plopped down spread eagle on the floor and I swear she smiled at us. Will definitely be back and next time we will bring our entire crew of adults and kids!
BUZZARD ROCK ROCKS!

Very nice weekend getaway. A rental comes with a boat slip in the marina. They have a restaurant with a pretty good variety of food. The resort rooms have a kitchenette and their own bathrooms. They also have a pool and a playground for the kids very quiet and overlooking the lake. They also have a back deck with a gas grill. the gas is provided by the resort.

Room tip: All rooms are the same. They are quiet and comfortable with two beds.

My father found this resort on the internet, we were looking for a week away at a lake resort within 7 hour drive from Chicago. We had never been to the Kentucky Lakes area, and since it was only a 6.5 hour drive we thought we would give it a try. We saw that there was a waterpark (Venture River Waterpark) close by the resort, and since we have two small kids we thought we would give it a try. We don't own a boat, but most if not all of the other guests at the resort seemed to own their own boat. We knew we would probably rent a boat for 3-4 of the days we were visiting so we decided to shop around, I would recommend you do this as you will find good deals at other marinas. However, if those other marina's boats are booked then the Buzzard Rock marina does offer a Jon boat, Bass Boat, and Pontoons. We did rent the Jon boat for two days we visited (It has a 9.9hp Mercury and a trolling motor) and found it to meet our needs of fishing close by the resort.

We stayed in one of their four "Resort Rooms" which is basically like an extended stay hotel room. It has two double beds, pullout couch, two side chairs, dresser, kitchen table, stovetop, 3/4 size refrigerator, microwave, toaster, coffee maker, kitchen sink, and full bathroom. In addition, there was a propane grill on the deck. The decks offer a great view of the lake, with a picnic table so we had breakfast and dinner on them each day. We bring our own paper products (plates, cups, flatware) as we don't like to be bothered doing dishes. We did use the pots and pans, and they were fine. We brought a sharp knife and can opener which turned out to be a blessing as our unit didn't have a sharp knife or functioning can opener. They don't provide bedding for the pullout couch so be sure to bring some if you think you'll need to use it. The only maid service they provide each day is towel service, garbage pick-up (leave full bag outside of unit), and replenish the toilet paper. The resort rooms and cabins are all located right near the pool which was nice (the pool has a hot tub, but it wasn't working, and doesn't appear as though it has worked in a while)

The restaurant and bar looked busy each night (we didn't visit them so I can't review) and the music on Friday/Saturday sounded good (70s-2000s rock themes). The store at the resort carries lots of t-shirts and souvenirs' but not much in the way of food items (bags of ice, pop, beer, and ice cream bars is all they sell). There is a Food Giant located about 10 minutes from the resort, however we went to the Wal-Mart Supercenter in Princeton, KY about 20-25 minutes from the resort and stocked up on what we needed for the week. The resort staff is VERY friendly and helpful, and we would visit again, but hopefully with our own boat.

Visited Buzzard Rock Resort for some Spring fishing. We stayed in a motel unit which was very nice. It was equal to a cabin with a deck facing the lake. We didn't visit the bard or restaurant because they were not open until the end of May.
Staff was very friendly and accommodating. Caught some Bass, Redear and Catfish.

Cabins were dirty. Bugs in the silverware drawer and pans were rusted out. We had 5 adults in one cabin and they would only give us one roll of toilet paper a day. We rented a bass boat for the week and when we arrived it didn't work. They gave us a different one and it worked intermittently. On our last night we went to take boat out one more time and it wouldn't start. Owner wouldnt do anything about it, he said we only had an hour before dark which wasn't true, we had at least 2 and a half hours. If you are coming here to fish and you don't have a boat I would look elsewhere. They cater to their marina guests and not their cabin guests. We have been there 4 times now and will never go back. The only thing that kept us going was the fishing but we caught nothing and wouldnt leave the area with fears of breaking down. This by far was the worst experience!! I will have to give five stars to the staff member Butch. He was excellent. And Mary at the desk is awesome too! We will take our business back to wisconsin! We thought we would try it one more time..never again!!
