About Green Turtle Bay

Green Turtle Bay Resort occupies a broad waterfront property on Lake Barkley in Grand Rivers, where condominium lodging, marina activity, dining, wellness services, and events share one harbor. One, two, three, and four-bedroom condominium-style cabins give couples, families, and groups several choices in size and location. Kitchens, living rooms, laundry facilities, and outdoor grills allow the units to function as lake homes rather than short hotel stays.

Green Turtle Bay Marina is central to the resort's identity. More than 450 in-water slips, dry-stack storage, transient dockage, fuel, repair services, and room for large cruisers make the harbor a major stop on the Cumberland River system. Great Loop travelers often use the resort as a place to rest, make repairs, gather supplies, or spend several days exploring Grand Rivers and the surrounding lakes.

Boat rentals open the water to guests who arrive without their own vessel. Pontoons, tritoons, double-deck boats with slides, kayaks, paddleboards, tubes, and other equipment support a wide range of lake days. The scale of the rental operation allows families to choose a quiet paddle, a day of cruising, or time anchored near the shoreline.

Dining, shopping, and wellness services broaden the stay beyond the marina. Tiki Turtle serves meals and drinks overlooking the harbor, Trendy Turtle adds shopping, and Jade & Earth Spa gives guests a quieter way to spend part of the day. The health club has included an indoor pool, exercise equipment, sauna, showers, and scheduled classes, giving the resort year-round appeal beyond boating weather.

Conference and event facilities support weddings, retreats, meetings, and reunions, with condominium lodging keeping groups close to the venue. Grand Rivers adds Patti's 1880's Settlement, local shops, seasonal performances, and community events nearby. The northern entrance to Land Between the Lakes is only a short drive away. Green Turtle Bay connects all of those experiences to a working marina and a resort community with its own rhythm.
