The caves were beautiful, the wheel chair accessible one that had and elevator for my mom to go was not working so she was not able to see them but my daughter and I did the frozen Niagara falls and it was so cool.

Great campsites, facilities and park employees and tours.
This website is slow and confusing and wrong about occupancy and discouraged me from going to the park

Great sites. They do allow dogs, so there were quite a few barking but most were quiet at night.

I stayed in Loop B for 2 nights during the weekday and it was quiet and not crowded whatsoever. I liked that the Convenience Store was very close to my campsite where I was able to purchase firewood, breakfast sandwiches in the morning, souvenirs and basic camping equipment.
We also spotted each day a family of deer roaming peacefully throughout the Loop, munching on grasses and taking it easy. No disturbances from the campers that scared off the deer. It was nice to see.
Also, the Visitors Center was less than a 10-minute walk from my campsite. The Visitors Center houses a nice museum, a souvenir shop and where all the cave tours can be purchased, if you hadn't done so already, and where the tours meet.

great national park. my particular campsite wasn't very good for a tent very little level ground. suggest looking at offered site before accepting it. Hiking trails poorly marked, they are in need of new signs especially where several trails cross. I did the extended historic tour, the lantern tour, and violet city. unfortunately had a screaming toddler on the historic tour which made it less enjoyable. recommend the lantern tour as there is an age limit of 6 and above. Park itself very clean and well maintained. All the rangers and employees are friendly and helpful which makes for a good visit. will definitely go back and do some of the other cave tours. overall a great experience

Really enjoyed this campground and the convenience of its location for being able to walk to visitors center for the cave tours. Our site was shady and level and convenient to water and bathrooms. Had a great time!

Was disappointed in the fact there were no showers in the actual campground and the ones close by you had to pay for. It was $1.50 for 4 minutes which is NOT enough time fully clean yourself. Besides that I did enjoy the campground and being close to the visitors center. Saw lots of wildlife during my stay here. It did rain as well and my site was pretty level so no big puddles and that’s always nice not having to worry about.
