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

Beautiful campground! Wish it had regular not coin-operated showers and a place to wash dishes.

We were having more noises than downtown New York with all the generators in operation to charge the batteries. Amazing. This was really bad. You go camping to relax and not being harassed by heavy constant noises. They should have zones with ‘generators free’. People were leaving in the morning to visit caves and their generators were in operation ALL DAY LONG…. Very bad experience with this campground.

The sites were spaced far enough to offer privacy. Check-in was super easy and the campsite was well laid out. Restrooms were very clean and plenty of water spigots throughout the campground.

Altogether. this was a great stay! Our campsite was 110,D. Loop D had its own bathhouse with electricity, toilets, and sinks. It was very clean, even with it being Memorial Day Weekend and the park being super busy. This loop is right beside the camp store that has the showers, laundry, extra bathrooms, and a little store. The camp store had the basic items that you might forget or need on your trip: bug spray, firewood, spatula, etc. The firewood felt expensive for how small a bundle it was, but its expected on a busy weekend. It was also within walking distance to the visitor center which is really nice considering parking gets limited throughout the day. Campsite it definitely not level so beware of how big a tent you bring or if you use a camper. I would recommend this campsite to a friend.
