Pulaski County, Kentucky
Pulaski County is in south-central Kentucky, where Lake Cumberland makes a big splash. The whole county’s big on boating and fishing. If you can’t find a rod and reel here, you’re not trying.
Actually, the county is a popular destination for anyone who loves the outdoors, thanks to Lake Cumberland. This lake is one of the largest man-made lakes in the country.
The county is easily accessible via the Cumberland Parkway and U.S. Route 27, which runs right through Somerset (the county seat). Somerset is like a beach town in the middle of the state.
