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

Had a great time, even in the persistent rain. The campground was clean and quiet, and we even had some deer grazing in the empty campsite next to us!

I had a nice one night stay over Memorial Day weekend. Campground was full, but it didn’t feel full. It didn’t feel like a lot of people. My spot had lots of nice shade. It was not very level though. Overall, it was a great stay nice and close to the visitor center for my evening cave tour.

Site 98D is a pull through. Nice site, although we did have to raise the right side of the trailer much higher than the left. The bathroom in D section was very clean. If you need to shower it is at the Camp Store and costs $1.50 for about 3-4 minutes and then a quarter for each additional 30 seconds. We did not need the shower. We enjoyed being able to walk to the Visitor Center and all the hiking trails in the area.

Mammoth Cave National Park was a delight. The campsite is located in a very wooded area and felt very rustic. it was a short walk to the visitor center and to cave tours. We thoroughly enjoyed our five nights stay and really enjoyed the cave tours. The Rangers were pleasant and knowledgeable. There was a dump station and water next to the campground at the campground store.

I'm a local who visits the park frequently with my dog for trails and to walk around the campground. It's fun to see the different ways people camp. I finally decided it was time to take the plunge and camp overnight myself. It's a beautiful, peaceful place to be.
