Buckhorn Presbyterian Church and the Greer Gymnasium
The Buckhorn Presbyterian Church (also known as the Buckhorn Lake Area Church) and the Greer Gymnasium are two historic log buildings located off KY 28 in Buckhorn, Kentucky.

Both institutions grew rapidly; the school had 369 students by 1914, and when the new church building was constructed, the 865-member congregation was the largest rural Presbyterian church in Kentucky.
