I love this campground. It has a lot of rules and restrictions, which typically make for a very peaceful Camping trip. However, this time there were a Group of campers that had numerous children between them and they ran around on electric bikes (which I have never seen here) up into the night after 10:00 pm quiet hour. As
Strict as it is, I was very shocked campground
Host(s) allowed this to happen. Plus I’m not sure either that electric bikes are a good idea in a campground
For safety reasons. I have kids and I like kids, but these were out of control. I have been camping at Cave Run for 46 years. It is my favorite. I hope this was just a one time
Event.

Your recent paving made all the difference. Very clean and tidy. Give your staff an “atta-boy” for a job well done.

Practically zero to do on a stormy or rainy day. Very little hiking. Terrifying amount of poison ivy in the region. Camping store was so small and practically nothing in it. Not really souvenir stuff. Local stores 15 minutes away were really bare. Not sure why this place is so huge with so little in the area other than boating... which is not fun on a stormy or rainy week. Bike rentals would have been nice... camp activities... We drove way south to find a park to do something other than sit in our campsite or go on the one short hiking trail available that was manageable to mostly avoid poison ivy.
We had the group camping area to ourselves which was wonderfully private... though there was a ton of maintenance work being done which was very nerve wracking, especially with no where to go to get away from it other than our tent while it was raining and storming.

We stayed at D13 for 6 days mid-June. Our camp host was so kind and friendly. The camp is generally well maintained and felt safe. I would not suggest this campsite for people that enjoy a more secluded and quiet experience. I would also not suggest it as a restful place to stay on weekends or holidays: there was a lot of noise from kids yelling/crying, generators running, and boat traffic at the lake not too far away. The boats did not stop until we’ll after midnight when we first arrived. The site we picked was next to a dumping facility, which was always loud (think of a lawnmower noise except day and night, non-stop). For some reason, the lavatories closest to our site also seemed to be pretty loud, but I didn’t notice any of the other lavatories making such a loud motor noise. Our site was not shaded (it says partial shade on the website, but the trees do not cover the camping pad). I think we would have had a better time at any other site, but none were really private. I don’t think we’d return to this campground again, but I do think most people and especially families with small kids wouldn’t mind it there, or would actually enjoy it there.
