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

Number of accommodations: 108

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!

We love national parks. Stayed at Mammoth campground two nights. We were able to walk up to the camp store and the visitor center. We made a last-minute decision to take our grandson, so we were only able to do the self-guided tour.

The Ranger that provided our tour was excellent. I think his name was Eric. We really enjoyed it.

Mammoth Cave was the most amazing place I’ve ever seen. The caves were so amazing all on their own but the facilities were always clean and functional. Every employee seemed genuinely happy to be there and everyone was so helpful. I had never been to Kentucky, other than passing through, and its beauty surpassed all expectations! This was a solo trip for me and I can’t wait to bring my family back. The camping area was also wonderful! Only next time I will camp in tent only area so I won’t be near loud generators during the day.
I only got to do three tours and there is so much more I want to see there. I haven’t stopped talking about Mammoth Cave and I’m pretty sure my family is tired of hearing it. 😂 They all know about many of the cave histories and dates and events pertaining to Floyd Collins’ unfortunate end. I’ve bought a few books while there that will give me more insight to the amazing area and it’s caves!
