The campground location is awesome. The drawbacks that per loop of many people, there are only 2 sinks, one toilet and 2 urinals (one broken). Also there are only 3 very old showers for the whole campground without any changing booths. You pretty much change in the middle of the open restroom. These defiantly need to be renovated and upgraded.
The cave tours are awesome and there is plenty to do in area, e.g. horseback riding, hiking, haunted houses, zoo. It is defiantly worth a visit.

We had a lovely time camping at Mammoth Cave campground, highly recommend this spot to anyone that loves camping. The campground was quiet, comfortable and well-maintained and park staff (rangers and park police) were available and seemed to keep an eye on things. Rangers were very approachable and helpful, they were extremely knowledgeable and professional. Just the right balance of being in the woods and knowing that staff were around if you needed them.

Nice campground. Many of the pull through sites, like 13B, face the incorrect direction (camper door opens towards the road rather than the living space).

Park staff went above and beyond providing excellent service. I do wish the camp sites were better (elevated platform so it didn’t turn into a mud pit when I rained).

We forgot to pack coffee, so we were very grateful there was a pot going at the store near the entrance.

This is a great site! Although the trees on both sides of the pad may limit the use of awnings and slide outs the rear of the site where the table and fire ring are at is huge. You can pivot your camp chairs for an unobstructed view of the woods. The pad is very level as well. Beautiful site.

Mammoth Cave campground is clean, well kept and safe. It was a fun few days with my husband. The campsites are large and easily accessible for tents and/or campers.

Overall a very good campground and campsite. It was mostly quiet, which is better than our experience at many national park campgrounds. Two qualities would have made it better. 1. There was no platform to pitch our tent. So we picked the most level place we could find on our small plot. But it was not entirely level and there was a big root in the middle. 2. Throughout the night we heard a generator turning on and off. It may have been a trailer, or it may have been one of national park buildings. Either way, somewhat annoying. Still, overall a good value.

No hookups in this campground!!! The site we had (81) is backwards!! Your camper door opens AWAY from the campsite. This is really dumb!!! Generators prohibited 8pm-8am. Should be 9pm or later!!
