Camping season isn't over just because summer is! 🍂🏕️

In fact, fall might be one of the best times to pitch a tent around Calloway County. The temperatures are finally cooling down, the trees are starting to show off their colors, and Kentucky Lake is still calling your name.

Spend your mornings fishing, take an afternoon hike through the changing leaves, and settle in around the campfire when the evening air gets chilly. There's plenty to enjoy outside this time of year, and you don't need a packed schedule to enjoy it.

If you've been looking for an excuse to get away and reconnect with nature, come spend a fall weekend camping around Calloway County. The best part of the season is happening right outside your tent!

Fall looks better from Lynnhurst Resort. 🍂

Take the pontoon out for a slow cruise while the shoreline changes color, spend an afternoon hiking with the kids, then come back to a glamping stay with a Kentucky Lake view. Once the sun goes down, grab a seat around the bonfire and enjoy one of those cool fall nights we’ve been waiting for.

Lynnhurst gives you plenty of ways to enjoy fall in Calloway County, with boat rentals, glamping, cabins, camping, and more right on Kentucky Lake!
