By rssfeeds-admin Officials say after consulting with “local stakeholders,” the Pennyrile Golf Course will remain open.
According to Kentucky’s Tourism, Arts and Heritage Cabinet, operations will be based on a set annual budget that will determine the number of playable holes and the dates of operation. Officials say they are focused on addressing the challenges ahead by working with community partners to explore new ideas and additional funding sources for enhancements.
A spokesperson for the cabinet says, “The Department of Parks is committed to improving our state parks system to ensure safe and memorable experiences for our guests.”
A spokesperson with the Tourism, Arts and Heritage Cabinet previously explained since the golf course was built in a floodplain, it suffers from significant damage during rain events, washing out the cart path, damaging bridges and causing other damage, leading to long closures and expensive repairs to make the course safe and playable. With these challenges, the course is the least played and lowest quality among the Kentucky State Parks golf courses.
