Kentucky town named one of the best lakeside retirement spots by Southern Living

Kentucky has 45 major lakes across the Commonwealth, but only one spot made Southern Living's list of the South’s best lake towns for retirees. On a list of 17 southern lake towns “where retirement feels like a vacation,” Paducah earned a spot. Kentucky Lake and Lake Barkley, the two largest lakes in the Commonwealth, sit near Paducah, and three rivers, the Ohio, Cumberland and Tennessee, meet in or around the town. “Paducah and the small towns that surround it offer up fun on the area’s many lakes and rivers,” the magazine said. The Paducah Riverfront sits on the shores of the Ohio and Tennessee rivers. According to the city , the riverfront has a “variety of can’t-miss sites,” including historical markers, murals, festivals, fireworks, concerts and boat docks. The town hosts events year round.

Will Jim Beam distill next year in Clermont? The latest on Kentucky's bourbon giant

Major Kentucky distillery Jim Beam, which stunned the world in December 2025 b y closing its Clermont distillery for a year , plans to keep it offline at least through 2027. “We’re going to continue to have distillation paused at our Clermont distillery,” said Suntory president and CEO Greg Hughes in an interview with the Herald-Leader. “But Clermont remains a very active part of our Kentucky operations.” The campus, which has been the bourbon brand’s home just outside of Bardstown for 90 years, continues to operate tours and visitor experiences as well as bottling, aging, warehousing and other daily activities. But the bulk of distilling shifted to the larger industrial Booker Noe distillery in Boston. Hughes said that after a $400 million expansion there a few years ago that increased distilling capacity by 50%, Beam was able to meet current distilling demands there while making improvements at the Clermont site.
