Grayson County, Kentucky
Grayson County is in west-central Kentucky, home to not one, but two lakes – Rough River (in the north) and Nolin Reservoir (in the south).
Leitchfield, the county seat, hosts the Twin Lakes National Fiddler Championship. So if you like your music old-school, this is your spot. The county’s also proud of its Amish community so you might see a few horse-drawn buggies sharing the road.
And let’s not forget about the caves. There’s a whole underground world to explore. Just don’t forget your flashlight, or you might end up playing a very long game of hide and seek.
