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

C78 was big and private, enjoyed dawn and dusk visits from family of deer. Campground facilities well-maintained and it was great we could collect dead wood for fires -- so many other parks can't or don't do that. Shout out to camp store which sells excellent fire starters in muffin cups.

Quiet spot. Make sure to bring a leaf blower if you plan on tent camping. There was no site prep so you have to clear your own area when you arrive. Also, I wish I would have known the showers were tied to the general store that was already closed for the season. The booking sites advertise showers. So no showers if you book in the fall when the store is closed for the season. Overall, we enjoyed the stay! Would stay there again.

The campsite was even, smooth, and well-maintained! The bathrooms were ok, but not super clean. Location was pretty and the loop made a nice walking path.

Great location for camping in Mammoth Cave, less than a 15 minute walk to the Visitor Center, 5 minute drive. The campground also has a few trails linked to it, which is great if you want to avoid the large crowds. Area was very quiet in mid-November, which was nice.

The campsites were clear and clean, the quarter-showers were crazy nice, and the water spigots were convenient. My only complaint is that people are allowed to have their generators going, which are very loud. I felt like I was in a construction zone until about 9pm when they turned their generators off.

Very well maintained camp sites, loved the fire pits. Bathrooms were okay, could have been cleaner and one did not have any water. Disappointed that the store wasn't open to buy firewood but the lodge and welcome center were super close. Not a fan of the generator use as it drowns out the sound of nature. Overall a great time and we plan to bring our kids back in the spring.

My site was occupied by someone else when I arrived a little before 7P. There was no clear signage on who to contact (non emergency) and when I called Recreation.gov they said to just take some other unoccupied site. What’s the point of reservations?
