Was a wonderfull place for our troop to begin our caving experience. Also this is the first year in 38 years that they have opened up the caves for sleeping to the boy scouts. Was a. Awesome experience.

Great place to take your scout troop

Overall this truly was a cute little spot to camp out on our way to Kentucky! One of the benefits of this site is that the cave and gift shop are right there, so you have a cool
 Opportunity to take a tour and then stay in the same area. The campgrounds are all equipped with a nice fire pit, picnic table, lean to, and the availability of electric hookup. The campgrounds also has a couple newer cabins that look really cute. The camper and tent spots are right along a cute little creek so it was very pleasant.
They have a small shed attached to the gift shop that has firewood for sale. They have a small cafe that sells the usual hot dogs, chips, soda and the sort. They also have a larger open air pavilion that they provide yard games like, cornhole, horseshoes, and other games, so pretty nice. I would definitely recommend this as it is small and intimate, but if you are looking for private seclusion this is not for you. 

Relaxing Setting

I was really surprised that in my 30 years of living in Indiana, I had never been to Marengo Cave. It's both great for kids and adults. The people are super friendly and there are two different parts to explore. The dripslide caverns and the crystal palace cavern. There are extra activities for the kids such as mining and a nice gift shop for any rock lover out there. I highly recommend and they had cabins to camp in as well.

Explore a national landmark.

Camp sites are pretty small, but are aligned along a small stream.  Heavy truck and train traffic can be heard at all hours.  Sites equipped with electricity, a gazebo &amp; picnic table, and fire pit.  Camp store, cave tours, gift shop, and other pay activities are within steps of camping,  but only open until 5:00.  No security or staff at all after hours.  Bath house was heated, extremely clean with flush toilets, and continual hot water.  City water access in the middle of the campsite. Play area and 2 large covered areas for get together's. Newer cabins looked very nice from outside.  Caves are obviously a must see while there.  More caves are within driving distance.  

Small sites but very clean! 

I stayed on late October and I was the only one there, except for a family on the cabins. The spots are just near and walking distance from the caves and other attractions. They have two potable water spots (so no water on each spot), picnic tables, fire rings, grills and every spot faces the little river. restrooms and showers too. You can bring small pets inside the cave if you carry them all time. I have a small zuchon and carry her in a doggy backpack 🎒 she loved it!

Near Caves

The campground is small and intimate. We had sites 8-9 and they were perfect. Lots of activities and of course the cave. Staff was great. No cell service
