Very nice, secluded campsite - great to have both electric and water hookup. Ferry closed due to recent flooding however mammoth cave well worth the 45-min drive. Great hiking and hanging out in beautiful spring nature!

Beautiful park with lots of hiking opportunities and a pretty posh welcome center that serves as HQ for all of the amazing cave tours offered. I was a little disappointed that it was primitive toilets only at the maple springs campsites. Although they were clean and plenty of them, the only bath house is near the visitor center. You have to take a ferry across the green river, two cars at a time, to get there. The ferry is quaint, and pretty quick, and free, but it closes around 6pm and its a 45 min drive to bypass it. It would be so much nicer to have 1 bath house at the campsites. As for the campsites, they were nicely spaced and roomy but has a lot of mud spots that could use some mulch or gravel. Lastly, there were a lot of downed trees on the trails. Every one we went on as a matter of fact. I recommend bringing a small saw or hatchet if possible to help clear some of these paths. I also recommend donating to and supporting the national parks service who have been severely underfunded for decades but more so in the last decade. With more help this park could be IMMACULATE!

1) With the Ferry being closed it took about 50 Minutes to get to the campground from the Visitor Center, so should plan for that. 2) Would have been nice to have a shower house at the campground. 3) With the one-way requirement of the campground loop and not being able to move the picnic tables, our site was very difficult to back into if you have a longer rig. 4) The Mammoth Cave Tour that we took was excellent.

Everything was fine. Overall, the park hasn’t invested much in their campsites. While the group sites at Maple Springs have power and water, unlike all the others, they don’t have a good (flushing or heated) bathroom or showers. The ferry is inaccessible to RVs so they have to go all the way around the park (40 minutes) to get to the dump stations. All in all it was a nice time but we’ve stayed at way better campsites.

Overall, we really enjoyed this campground but there are some things we wish we would have known ahead of time. First, there is no one to check in with when you arrive. No guard shack or anything. We arrived after dark so this was a surprise to us and we just had to figure it out. It wasn’t bad, just unexpected. The next thing, it’s DARK at night. No really, there were only 3 or 4 other campers on the grounds while we were there and at night, it was very dark out there without street lights around the campground. Lastly, we selected this campground due to the proximity to Mammoth Cave which according to GPS said it would take us 6-10 minutes to get there. In actuality, the ferry road was closed so we had to go all the way around and it took more like 45 minutes to get to the visitor center. Not a huge deal but it was just unexpected. With all that said, I would stay here again because it was super quiet and away from everything.

The campsite has some significant dips in the cleared area for our vehicle and camping. These dips or big holes collected water and mud that made getting in and out of our camper unpleasant.

The group campsite has no dump station. Other than that, it was a good site.

Huge campsite with electric and water. Lots of picnic tables and two fire pits were included. Great separation from other campers and a super quiet environment.

Green River ferry was not working. Our GPS almost got us there before we saw signs. We drove 40 minutes to Mammoth Cave area to get information. There we learned that the campground was a 45 minute drive back on the other side of the ferry. That would mean an additional 1.5 hour drive to get there and unhook our trailer and then return for the Cave tour.
Fortunately, a gate ranger canceled our Miller reservation and found us a non electric site near the Cave.
