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 campsites weren't great, but what I expected in a public campground. I was disappointed that the showers were not easy to find and had such limited hours. The park itself, was wonderful.he trails are well - marked and interesting. The tours I took were good, with guides that listened to questions, pacing and had a lot of information to share.

Quiet little park right next to the visitor center. Well maintained restrooms. Coin operated showers and laundry at the camp store were convenient and clean.

It’s the nicest and cleanest park/campground I’ve ever been to. Loved the tours and the tour guides.

The campground was clean and well cared for. The bathrooms were also clean (daily) with motion sensor lights kept the bugs down. The only reason I rate 4 instead of 5 is because our site, loop C site 80, was not level. The spot for our tent left us sliding down in our sleeping bags while we slept and our chairs by the fire pit had to be placed in a certain way to keep from tipping. other than that our camping trip there was great, highly recommend! Just maybe avoid site 80 in loop C.

The campground staff provided friendly advice and recommendations. The grounds and facilities were well maintained. And the other campers were respectful of everyone's experience. It is conveniently located near the camp store and visitor center.

Mid-April visit. Restroom was clean. Campground was relatively quiet.
Be sure to book any tours well in advance.
