Mammoth Cave Campground




Arrived here at Cave City, Kentucky on June 24 for 2 nights. We toured a cave for 2 hours. It was really hot outside (88 degrees & humid). You had to wear a jacket in the cave as the temperature was 52 degrees. There were many different tours as there were 400 miles of caves to explore here. We entered caves that were 60 feet high and other parts (Fat mans misery) where you had to almost crawl to pass. On some tours, they provide special clothes to slosh through wet passages. The guide was very informative and he turned off the lights for a few seconds to give us an idea of how dark it was in there. One camper was on tour the day before us and the whole group was stranded inside the cave with no lights for 45 minutes because the lights went out. E ticket ride! We attended an informative campground program on how to find your way out of a cave. The campground had no electric or water or sewer at the sites, and since we were surrounded by trees there was no satellite reception either. That all said, I rate this park F***. This was a pleasant place to camp.
