DIRECTIONS:

There are two ways, the first is probably easier, both take pretty close to the same amount of time give or take a minute or two.

#1: Coming from Lexington, take I-75 down to London Exit 38, turn right onto 192, follow for roughly 15-18 miles until 192 splits off, stay left to get onto 1193, about 1 mile after the split, there will be a hard right hand curve where 1193 splits, turn left onto Dam Rd. The left will be in the middle of the hard right hand curve. Take that road all the way down for a little over a mile until you see the signs pointing left to Holly Bay Marina and the Dam. Take that left and keep going until you cross the Laurel Dam (if you miss the left turn, it goes on down to the power plant at the bottom of the Laurel Dam). Directly after you cross the dam portion but before you cross the big bridge going across the spillway, there will be a big blacktop parking lot with a gazebo. Park on the end closest to the bridge and walk down the stairs to get to the spillway underneath the bridge.

#2: Coming from Tennessee or if you just want to go a little further south, take I-75 exit 25. If you are heading south coming from Lexington on I-75, turn right onto 25E. If you are heading North coming from tennessee, turn left onto 25E. Take 25E for maybe 3 or 4 miles until you see 1193/1277 on the right. You should also see signs for Holly Bay and Grove marinas. Turn right onto 1193/1277 and follow until 1193 and 1277 split. Turn right onto 1193/Blair Memorial Hwy, follow until you reach the big bridge going over the spillway. As soon as you cross the bridge, you will see the parking area on the left. Pull in there and park on the end closest to the bridge, take the steps down to the spillway area under the bridge.

Sorry for the rough mileage figures, I don't have anything exact to go by. Either way, the signs are all clearly marked so it shouldn't be too hard to find.
