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

Number of accommodations: 108

The campground was great. I was in a regular site (92) the first night and a VIP (full hookups #93) the next night. The rangers were great in helping me make the change. Very friendly and helpful!

This was our first stop on a 3000 mile road trip with two kids under 4 years old! Our site was amazing! Spacious, private feeling, yet still close to the bathrooms! The giant felled tree separating our only next door neighbor was our kids favorite part and I loved watching them be able to explore!

Fantastic, quiet campground very close to the Visitor Center and cave tours. We are in a 35-ft motorcoach and initially had site 92 in D loop which was too sloped, and we needed to change. Site 109 worked fine. Loop C had more level spots in general than loop D.

A really well maintained campground. Much cheaper than surrounding commercial campgrounds. The sites are very spacious and there are hiking trails everywhere. There are big fields with deer running around a short walk away. The tent sites offer a huge flat well drained pad, but the ground is very hard so freestanding tents are fine but putting in pegs is iffy. The showers are good and are pay so bring $5 in quarters. The general store is well stocked but closes at 5pm, and the nearest stores open late are out near the interstate.
