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.

Great location for going into the Cave. There is a path from the campground to the visitor's center.

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.

The site was a bit muddy (rained a lot). While we cannot control the weather, it would be nice to have landscaping that had better drainage. Lots of puddles and mud. The bathrooms were very clean and lighting to get there was most appreciated. It would have been nice to have showers in the bathroom, rather than having to drive to the entrance in order to shower. I also do not appreciate having to pay extra for the showers.
It was nice to be near enough to walk to the caves and overall we had a great time.

I would rate this campground excellent except for the lack of showers. There were showers behind the campers store but were in great need of updating and overall cleanliness. Also these were not free. The coin machines looked to be quite ancient. They did work and the water was warm enough. The bathrooms in the campgrounds were kept very clean while we were there.
