Maple Springs Camp Group Sites
Peace and quiet, awesome set up for our 40ft fifth wheel “the big kahuna”. 4 nights, electric and water hookup. Dump site is on the mammoth cave side, only downside is the 45 minute drive around to the dump site, other than that 10/10 for campground and amenities.

Amazing space
Large area and peaceful get away. The pull in line up could be a bit better for some of the spaces (site 3 you better reverse traffic). Sewage would be a nice upgrade especially with no showers there but the Camp bathrooms ease some of that burden. Beautiful scenery and some great things to check…
Quiet and open
Nicely wooded. Had a water and electric site but the second night the electric stopped working at the pole so we had to run out generator for a couple minutes. Ferry was open and had a great time touring Mammoth Cave.
