Welcome to an area where adventures begin and the great outdoors are calling for you to explore. This location boasts the historic and spectacular Boone Creek Gorge, which offers a unique ecosystem in the Kentucky palisades region. This area is a privately owned natural wonder that was previously inaccessible by the public. The gorge and the palisades river region were among the first areas settled by pioneers streaming over the Cumberland Gap into Kentucky. Following the wilderness road here to the Kentucky River area, the first seeds of commerce created the foundation for signature brands Kentucky is known for as it led the expansion into the Western Frontier.
