Bath County, Kentucky
Bath County is in eastern Kentucky, about an hour from Lexington. It’s home to around 13,000 people, with Owingsville as the county seat.
The county got its name from the mineral springs that were popular back in the day. Cave Run Lake is a big draw for fishing and boating.
Daniel Boone National Forest covers part of the county, offering plenty of hiking trails. The county’s known for its tobacco farms, but don’t light up in public. Folks here aren’t too keen on that.
