So much to see and do here. We will have to come back.

March 8 - 11, 2024First time tent camping in Kentucky and we were very happy with our experience. We loved our site (72C) and had plenty of room for our large tent. We did not have issues with mud or standing water after a few hours of rain. The fire ring is very large and ready for use (we bought large bags of firewood in nearby Cave City). The bathrooms were close and the cleanest I have seen at a campground. The Visitor Center for cave tours was walking distance. We did a short tour one day and a longer tour the next. We also explored the trails behind the campground and visitor center, as well as the well maintained bicycle path. Our trip was short, but full and satisfying. I would love to camp here again.

Addequate, but not outstanding.

Beautiful spot! Our group came and reserved sites 70, 72, 74, 77. Although each spot alone would be considered small, having everyone in our group combine our sites was amazing! Lots of space for the kids to play. Great loop for all the kids to ride their bikes. The bathrooms were very clean!

We stayed at the campground and it has plenty of room between sites. While at the park we took one of the cave tours which was very interesting and informative.

My short stay was easy in and out with level parking space 72 and a delightful night of rainfall.

Simple campground, was quiet when we were there (every other site was blocked off). The campground is near the visitor center, so it’s close to the cave; but it’s a little bit of a drive to get out of the park to go to town (which suited us well, but is something to be aware of, if planning on seeing things in the region). Very sparse cell coverage (AT&T).

Only a self guiding cave tour is currently available. Also, only 50% of campsites were available. Camp rangers were excellent.
