Cloverport, KY

Set right along the banks of the Ohio River in Breckinridge County, Cloverport is a quiet, tight-knit town of about 1,100 residents. Life here moves at an easy pace, centered around the scenic waterfront where Clover Creek empties into the river. The community has deep roots stretching back to the late 1700s, including a notable brush with history: in 1816, a local ferry carried a young Abraham Lincoln and his family across the Ohio on their way to Indiana.

For families and newcomers, Cloverport offers the rare convenience of having its own independent school district right in town. Daily life is simple and outdoors-friendly, whether you are out on the water, taking in the views from the historic Clover Creek Bridge, or relaxing by the riverbank. It is a friendly, slow-paced community where neighbors wave to one another and river views are part of everyday life.
