An important aspect of our mission is
assisting visitors with learning more
about Land Between The Lakes National
Recreation Area. A part of this includes
sharing information about LBL and its
environs.
We
provide service to the visiting public
at 6 locations of Land Between The Lakes
National Recreation Area. We greet and
orient the public, provide LBL and
regional information, and make LBL user
permits available to the visitors.

toll-free telephone line. This service
answers questions from persons from both

hours of operation, cost of admission,
