About Mammoth Cave Campground

Mammoth Cave Campground offers campers a prime location to explore both the depths and surface treasures of Mammoth Cave National Park.  Clicking on the site link will provide more details about the site's conditions. Be sure to check the 'Need to Know' section for each site to gather additional information on specific conditions.  All wheels must remain on the pavement within the campground, as varying conditions can cause muddy ruts and erosion. Mammoth Cave is an underground passageway with over 400 miles of naturally sculpted limestone and sandstone, making it the longest recorded cave system in the world. The grand-scale chambers and winding passageways were the inspiration for the park’s name.  The campground also serves as an entry point to 14 miles of hiking and biking trails, and is just a five-minute walk to the Visitor Center, where cave tours begin

We enjoyed Mammoth Cave immensely! It was a bit hot and the coin showers were ok. The campground was very peaceful and the caves were awesome! Guides couldn't have been better!

Beautiful campground, I’d love to go back some day. Plenty of fun things to do at the park with hiking and tours of the cave, and the campground is a quick 10 minute walk from the park visitor center. The camp store has all the necessities if you forget anything, but I do wish they were open just a little later. You have to pay for the showers, but it’s reasonably priced and the water pressure is better than at my apartment so it’s well worth it. My only complaint is that I wish I could have stayed longer so I could have seen some of the neat attractions in town nearby.
