Taylorsville Lake State Park, State park with lake in Spencer County, United States.
Taylorsville Lake State Park encompasses 1,200 acres of land with a 3,050-acre lake featuring 75 miles of shoreline for outdoor recreation.
The United States Army Corps of Engineers constructed the Taylorsville Dam in 1983, measuring 163 feet in height and 1,280 feet in length.
The lake bears the name of Richard Taylor, father of President Zachary Taylor, who donated 60 acres of land to establish the nearby town.
The park provides 45 RV sites with electric hookups, 10 equestrian sites, and 15 primitive tent camping spots with water access.
Recognized as Kentucky's most heavily stocked fishing lake, the waters maintain specific size requirements: 15 inches for bass and 9 inches for crappie.
