Hello ba32347,

To answer your first question:

http://www.abc.ky.gov/NR/rdonlyres/88403470-8A7E-410C-9816-8B520F7649C8/0/WetDryList.pdf (broken link)

This site provides a list of all 120 counties in Kentucky as well as which are wet, which are dry, which are moist (county is dry but some of its cities are wet), and which are limited (drinks are served only in restaurants). It also lists wineries as well as which cities are wet, limited, etc. (Burnside is limited).

Now to narrow it down, you asked for the lake cumberland area. As this map shows, that is a ten county area.



Taylor: Dry
Casey: Dry
Green: Dry
Adair: Dry
Russell: Dry
Pulaski: Wineries and Limited (this is the county Burnside is in).
Cumberland: Dry
Clinton: Dry
Wayne: Dry
McCreary: Dry

As for your second question...I have never been to Lake Cumberland so I have no clue about life/work condition there. The best I can offer is a wikipedia link:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Burnside%2C_KY

Hope it helps and good luck.

ahhh, I always had wanted to know what the laws were in certain areas of KY I'm considering moving to, considering that I asked the wet/dry question in another thread I started, and got no responces on it. thanks so much for posting that pdf of wet/dry laws in Kentucky!!

We are coming to Trigg County the end of this week. They say its a dry county, did I hear right that you can carry in your own beer into some of the resturaunts?

Trigg is a dry county. I grew up in a dry county (Hopkins) now it is "Moist"....but in answer to your specifc question I dont think you would be allowed to bring alcohol into a restaurant if it was bought in a wet county. Never thought of it actually, but growing up in a dry county I never saw such a thing. I never saw alcohol period until I went to college (except on TV). I know we have some folks who post here from Cadiz perhaps they can chime in.

We just got back from "Land Between the Lakes" stayed in Cadiz KY. The area was just beautiful! As far as living in a "dry county" I think its to wierd for me. That area really needs some updating. We stayed and ate at places that were highly reccomended by the locals and the quality of lodging and resturaunts was very poor. One of the resturants let us bring our own beer in and drink it with our meal, the other one the man at the check in was almost hostile to think we would ask to bring a bottle of wine in with our meal.
