Seeing that the lodge and campgrounds at Grider HIll are sold out, the closest hotel that I know of (and others correct me if I am wrong) is the Best Western at 79 soma Ln Albany, KY 42602, Ive never stayed there personally but know others that have and have said it is a pretty nice place and I believe newly built with decent parking for boats etc. Other than that you can search for other lodging in Albany KY. For other on the water lodging you can check with Jamestown marina, and State Dock Marina, those will be the closest (about 12 miles by water), Also might be a good idea to post on the Thunder Run Facebook event page. If i hear of any vacancies I will post them here as well.

Yes Grider Hill has showers at the marina, I believe it is only 1 or 2 showers at the marina bathrooms beside the ship store. The closest launch ramp is at Grider Hill Marina after you launch your boat you will be directed to the truck and trailer parking at the top of the hill where you can either drop your trailer and park your truck at the bottom of the hill (if there is parking available) or park your truck and trailer and be shuttled back to your boat at the bottom of the hill. Feel free to call me with any questions or if you need help launching etc when you get there give me a call and will be more than happy to help you out.

Another great event at Lake Cumberland over the weekend, several boated on Thursday and many did on Friday. Had to dodge a showers on Friday afternoon but after that the sun out and fun was on.
Saturday event was held up for a little bit till the showers passed, but then it cleared in the afternoon and turned out great.
Thank you Justin and Dan for providing everyone a great event to attend.
