It’s been a busy year for several lake area businesses.

Dan Zimmerly of WFO Watercraft tells KY 3 TV despite COVID 19, this has been one of his best years ever.

Zimmerly and other business owners say they’re practically sold out for this Labor Day weekend, which usually doesn’t happen.

Russel Burdette of Your Lake Vacation tells KY 3 TV despite COVID 19, this has been the busiest rental season he’s ever seen.

Burdette says the main reason people are flocking to the Lake is the freedoms, including the ability to get out on a boat and social distance from others.

A number of rental companies tell KRMS news that they have already sold out for the Labor Day weekend.

It’s been estimated that over 9 Million people have visited the area so far, many of whom have bought a home and moved here full time.
