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

Campground is well managed and clean. Plenty of staff on hand to assist with any emergencies. Great to have running water in the bathrooms. Awesome hiking. Nice to have a nearby restaurant and all the amenities you need to make your stay the best it can be.

Beautiful campground with large, level sites. Restrooms have running cold water and flush toilets. Walking path to the lodge and visitor center. Camp store located on site, but we did not use it.

Mammoth Cave NP has been getting some much needed updates over the past couple of years and it shows especially in the visitor center and lodge facilities which are now well above average.

The campgrounds near the visitor center and lodge are well maintained and managed but the campgrounds near facilities are in dire need of upgrades and improvements.

The coin operated, yes I said coin operated, showers are disgustingly bad and outdated.

The camp store was staffed by very nice folks but they were plagued by POS issues that required hand writing orders and receipts for food and supply purchases as well as using a pocket calculator to add up purchases which they struggled with.

Mammoth Cave is a national treasure that needs some TLC but is still wya visit.

We loved our stay at Mammoth Cave. We stayed for 3 days, and the campsite was perfect. A gravel pad with drainage below, concrete tables, and an amazing fire pit. Truly a new favorite. The only downside was the pay showers; bring your quarters, it’s a $1.50 for the shortest shower. Women's shower has a door with a place to hang a towel; men's does not.

Loved this park. Bathrooms were clean and the staff was friendly and knowledgeable. The cave tour was amazing. Like to do a longer one next time. The one and only complaint was I felt our camp site was very close to the next person.

We stayed at RV site. The park is nice and well taken care of. The guided tours were all booked so we could only go to self guided on a small portion of the cave system. The cave we visited was amazing. Highly recommend, but book ahead so you can experience guided tour in more caverns than the self guided.
