Going into Cabela's last weekend was a new experience for me. Although I've seen the store scattered near several highways and been to other sports/camping stores before, I'd never been to a Cabela's. When my husband and I learned they were building one in Lexington, we were anxious for the opening to check it out. A few days after the Grand Opening, we were in the area and eager to check it out. WOW. It's HUGE. And filled with SO MUCH. I don't even camp and I was in camp heaven. They have: - Camping gear. - BBQ gear. - Food/meat processing equipment. - Fishing gear. - Canoes & kayaks. - Women, men, and children's outdoor clothing. - Outdoor shoes/boots/sandals. - Assorted guns and rifles for hunting and protection. - Tons of ammo and gun accessories. - Archery equipment... AND an archery range of some sort! - A large stuffed [real] animal display and a little aquarium with live fish. - And I'm sure there's more that I'm missing.... There's also a little cafe to get snacks and drinks while you shop. Neat! This store kind of made me wish I was some kind of outdoor enthusiast. I DO enjoy being outside and I love to explore new forest preserves and nature spots, but I'm not an avid hiker or climber or camper or anything like that. Here..... I saw so much stuff that would definitely help me live outside if I wanted to. So cool. Great store. Friendly employees. Very exciting!

I think this is the best hunting and fishing store in Lexington Kentucky just past the Hamburg shopping area if coming from town. We enjoy walking around and seeing all the great camping and outdoor cooking supplies. We looked at men's shoes but they seem not to carry sizes below a men's size 8. My guys have men's size 7 or 7 1/2 that was our only complaint! The brands they carry are good quality. The store has a indoor Santa for the Christmas season if you are interested in this with a children's activity center set up by him. We could spend hours in this store!

I hadn't been to Cabelas yet and decided to stop by. The womens department is rather small and uninspiring. I had hoped to find some winter items on sale, but perhaps I was too late in the season. Considering the camping, hunting and fishing gear and apparel would be to the liking of those who engage in such outdoor activities, this appears to be the place to shop. Perhaps, come winter, I'll make another pass.

This place is huge!! It's been open for almost a year and I would never think that there would be so many hunters and outdoorsmen in the area, to keep so many similar store in business in Lexington. There's the two Dicks locations, Sportsman's Warehouse and now this massive Cabela's, just to name a few. To me, all of the mentioned are very similar. They sell coats, hats, etc.... brands like Northface. If you don't have an outdoorsmen or hunter in your life, you may never know that there is actually more to this place than just camo gear. They have a line of Yeti products.So if you're in the market for an overpriced cooler, this is where to find a large selection. In the back, there a sales selection. It's tucked into an area all by itself. The first time that I was there I missed it and as I was scouring through the clothing section, not finding anything on sale, I thought that everything was way over priced.

I strolled through the women's department, trying on jackets from Northface & Columbia.

I'm a sportsman (fishing archery, gun owner), 68 years old, 41 year resident of Lexington, and…read morecaregiver to a 94 year old World War Two vet. I saw their grand opening sale ad in the newspaper and drove down to check it out and maybe buy some gear. I put on my mask and walked into the store about 5 p.m. Sunday, Nov. 22, (during a week when Covid-19 was running rampant). I was met by a young female sales clerk not wearing a mask who approached close to me. When I asked her "aren't you supposed to be wearing a mask?" she responded "No". I noticed that NONE of the sales staff were wearing masks. A moment later the manager/owner approached me, so I asked him "Aren't you and your sales staff supposed to be wearing masks?" He said "No". I told him I was a senior and caregiver to a 94 year old veteran and needed to keep him safe. Then I asked him "isn't it the law that you and your staff are supposed to be wearing masks in a retail store?." I never raised my voice, was polite - just asked that question. He responded "No!" and told me to "please leave my store" and shooed me out. I was shocked. This is the first time in my life I have been asked to leave any establishment. Maybe the owner thinks he's being tough, or that no one can tell him what to do, or even patriotic. If so, maybe he should rethink his position in light of the dozens of veterans who have died from Covid at the Thomson-Hood Veterans Center in Wilmore, just down the road from his store. I will never go back to the Whitetail Heaven Outfitters Store in Nicholasville. NOTE: I don't know why the Yelp site is saying I'm from California. My whole family is from KY and I've lived in Lexington for 41 years. This is my first ever Yelp review.
