It was my first time camping here! It was clean and beautiful. I found some neighborhood restaurants I would like to try next time. I also found another camp ground, Nolin River, that I definitely would like to camp at next time. It's right on the water, so I'll have to bring more bug repellant everything. There are also fun cabins that reminded me of summer camp. I will definitely be back!
It's not just the caves that you will want to see. If you have children, there are a ton of attractions in town. A dinosaur park, mini golf, haunted houses, etc.

Nice, level, LARGE sites, to accommodate multiple tents/trailers. Only draw back was the grass was quite high & not maintained. Otherwise good campground & wed stay here again.
