Self check in required due to the gate house damaged by floods. Volunteer Hosts were very nice. There were several trailers pre parked for the Labor Day Weekend and no body in them. (hogging Spots) Rules state they must be manned. Bathrooms Very Clean. (they were cleaned daily) Need to add more water and Electric to area "C"

The campsite was very clean and the other campers were very friendly. We did go to mammoth cave and enjoyed the hike surrounding the cave. Would stay again if in the area.
