This is a lovely place in Eastern Kentucky! #lifeatexpedia

Greyson Lake.. A beautiful place located in Kentucky where you can jump on in your bathing suit and start swimming, hop in a kayak, throw your tennis shoes on and start hiking, or simply go cliff jumping off some of the beautiful rocks there. Highly recommend it to anyone looking for an adventurous day. #AquaTrove Everyone please help me win.
