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

The rangers were amazing and extremely nice and helpful, the camp ground was clean and orderly, and the amenities were very squeaky clean!

We used the main camp grounds ...loved it when picking a spot use c loop if there has been a lot of rain. The rest flood. But there is always a bathroom close to all spots and they are cleaned daily

This was a pretty good established campground. It was nice having bathrooms nearby, and the camp store with the showers and laundry was clutch. A nice surprise with the post office. Lots of wildlife, including some very vocal turkeys at 6 AM. Being able to walk over to the visitor center was really nice as well.

We love to camp and hike at Mammoth Cave. The campsites are generously sized, the bathrooms are clean and convenient. We cook most of our meals, but also enjoy going to the Green River Grill at the lodge. The cave tours sell out quickly, so you might want to make reservations ahead of time. Highly recommended!

I enjoy this beautiful park. The campground isn’t fancy but the sites are pretty and well separated. It’s a short walk to the Visitor Center where the cave tours begin. The gift shop is nice with lots of interesting items.

Beautiful campground with clean bathrooms, a nice Visitor’s center, and the caves are interesting and super fun to explore. A lot of construction going on and many trails closed, but in a year or so this will be a top notch park.
