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. Here are some coming up this week: Tuesday, Nov. 10 Throw and Flow: Wheel throwing class. Weekly classes until Dec. 1 Wednesday, Nov. 11 2026 Veterans Day opening ceremony and parade. Sewing for a sustainable future: Unlocking the language of patterns. Veterans Day Sunrise Reveille at Dolly McNutt Memorial Plaza.
