This was my first time visiting Mammoth Cave, and the campground was FABULOUS! My site (105D) was a perfect location balance for meeting neighbors and seeing nature-- no neighboring campsite on one side, and the back was the forest. My site was level and it was clean when I arrived, and the cement tables and fire pit were in great condition! The parking pad is a perfect size for two SUVs if you need more than one car. The sites in my loop were also a good distance away from each other-- not super close neighbors but close enough if you want to meet each other.The campground itself was a great blend of solo and couple campers and young families-- it wasn't overrun by any one type of camper. Everyone followed the quiet hour rules, and the bathroom facilities were kept clean- they were cleaned every day around lunchtime. The shower house is a bit of a walk if you're in the back of the campground but is still plenty walkable, I never needed to wait on an open shower, and they were very clean (I'd still bring shower shoes though). While I visited, I saw deer, turkey, and rare woodpeckers within the campground. There also wasn't an overwhelming swarm of bugs despite visiting in August. The campground is also within walking distance to the national park visitor center (where the cave tours start/end), the lodge and restaurants, and many hiking trails. Two things to note though-- don't expect cell service at the campground, and bring your lantern/flashlight with you if you go to a bath house after sundown-- it's quite dark at night unless there are many visitors with fires going, and the only sidewalks lit are the ones right outside the bath houses.Overall, I highly recommend a visit if you want to be close to nature-- town was about a 20 minute drive and there was minimal cell service (though you had free wifi at the visitor center). This was exactly the type of trip I was looking for though, so I will certainly be returning!!

Everything was clean and well maintained at the campground. Pleasantly surprised that there were not many bugs either.

Awesome campground, even with the camp store closed for the season.

Nice campground! Bring quarters for the coin operated showers though!

Staying at the Mammoth Cave Campground was a great experience. The man at the check in booth was imformative and very helpful. We had a great campsite and was within walking distance of the bathroom and supply store. Hiking trails were connected to the campground and were very fun. The campground was quiet and we even had a campfire and smores. We would definitely stay here again.

Mammoth Cave campground is clean, well kept and safe. It was a fun few days with my husband. The campsites are large and easily accessible for tents and/or campers.

Quiet, nice, and clean. Be sure to bring coins for the showers if you'd like to take one.

Clean restrooms. Pretty quiet campsite. Had a deer run right through my camp while I was making coffee, perfect
