I love Mammoth Cave NP. Our ranger guide, Chris, was amazing and fun. The crew in the visitors center were helpful and friendly. I can tell people really enjoy their jobs here. We were the very last campers in the campground the evening of November 30th so that was pretty cool as well as a privilege. Overall, it was an experience to remember and relish.

Mammoth Cave National Park was a highlight for us. I have never been down inside a cave so big, and I found it quite interesting how the Rangers told us about the known history of this wonder of the world.

Big sites, although because of all the fallen leaves, I wasn't sure where exactly I can setup my tent.

The camping grounds were clean and beautiful. The bathrooms were clean and well equipped. The paths were nicely lit at night. The only drawback was the showers which you have to pay to use, are old and are located quite far away from the camp sites.

We had some difficulty the day prior stopped later in the evening; we arrived without a reservation. The online reservation process was very good. We spent a few hours hiking the next morning and had a great time turning an otherwise difficult situation into a great experience.

Fantastic experience. Clean, well-spaced, perfectly set up camp spots for a reasonable price.
I did the guided cave tour in the morning—I am not a fan of group activities but I gotta say the ranger who led the tour was great and the whole experience was so well run. I did not expect to like the campground or the tour as much as I did. I liked it a lot a lot. I will be back to camp and do other cave tours.
Whoever runs this National Park is hitting on all cylinders. The staff were great, everything is so well thought out, and for a busy park the integrity of protecting wildness is maintained. Very impressed.
