Mammoth Cave Campground

Spent 2 nights on a weekend here at the end of August. The weather was great and the campground was amazing. The sites offer a lot space between them. The bathrooms were. Very clean as well. You can easily walk to the visitor center and lodge for food and tours. The campground store was also great and offered many amenities including food.

Obviously there are no "rooms" when camping but every site has a paved driveway. The picnic tables are cement and the site is relatively big. I love the park itself but my complaints are (as a seasoned camper) 1) there are only 2 showers at the campground store (opposed to each camp loop bathroom) AND they are coin operated! I had no cash so there was no showering for me. 2) there is nowhere to swim. Add that to no shower, so we left after our cave tour. I would avoid long weekends. I felt that the loop bathrooms were pretty small given the size of the park. Bathrooms were mostly clean. Beware- park rangers are very active around the park enforcing traffic rules.

Was here for stargazing and camping, the overall experience was good. They let you check in early around 2PM and check out at 11AM. This is one of the three campgrounds available in the park, and this one is the largest of all (100+ campsites), and nearby the visitors center. There’re a lot of other activities to do like Cave tours, Hiking, etc. The campgrounds are well maintained and they also have restrooms in nearby vicinity which are well maintained. The parking and overall layout of campsite is well planned and spaced. The sites may be too close to one another but overall it is worth the experience. Even though the

It is very likely I got Lyme disease from this campground. There were ticks found and then I was diagnosed with Lyme disease slightly after. I was long sleeve and pants and socks at all times and still got this. Please be cautious. Caves were amazing, but not sure it was worth this diagnosis.

My husband and I stayed here for one night. We stayed at a tent only site in Loop A. This little area is very nice and the bathrooms are very close. The showers are coin operated, which was fine, but they are in need of an upgrade. There is only a soap bar holder for a place to put things in the shower. Overall, it was a really good stay and we would stay here again!
