Barren is a great lake, one of our favorite campgrounds is Baileys Point. Now we have a place at Cumberland(even a better lake if you haven't been there), we are there almost every weekend.

At Barren, we usually found better water on the north side of the lake near the Narrows, there also used to be a ski course on the south end past the bridge.

In the mornings or early evenings around the islands near the damn is another great place to board.

The lake is plenty deep except for way back in the creeks. Peter Creek by the State Dock is pretty cool place to take a cruise back but its no ski.

Have a blast, it a nice lake...also try Cumberland, it huge.

Thanks for the info. My brother bought a lot on Barron that's why we are going there.
I want to check out KY its 350 miles south. I'm getting tired of the sucky weather
up north.
