Hello,

My family (my wife, 13 yr old daughter, my adult sister, my parents,
and I)
are considering renting a houseboat in Kentucky, most likely on Lake
Cumberland. We are moderately expereinced small boaters, but nothing
this
big. We know that we will want a minimum of a bath and a half due to
some
health issues. What we do not know is what to expect for such things
as
fuel consumption, etc. Also, does anyone have any recomendations as
to who
to use or avoid using? For that matter, are there any other lakes
that we
should consider in Kentucky, given that we have a family group and
would
perhaps want to do some on-shore day trips? We are trying to get
into an
early summer (mid-June) rental.

Thanks,
Terry Hicks

Lake Cumberland is beautiful, and a fun place. Look at webpages for the
area, for day trips, I rent a houseboat once a year from he
