    Mammoth Cave Campground — Mammoth Cave National Park

    Hidden Gem in south central Kentucky

    Mammoth Cave and the surrounding area offer many activities to suit anyone's desires. There are several competitive runs (5K and up) almost every weekend in the surrounding communities, and several are hosted in Mammoth Cave park itself. There is also the opportunity to go "caving", and you can walk through the caverns, and there are numerous hiking trails. Mammoth Cave offers tent, RV, and cabin camping - just be aware the cabins have running water, but no kitchens or air conditioning.

    Mammoth Cave Campground — Mammoth Cave National Park

    Highly recommended (sites 102/104, D Loop)

    We stayed in sites 102 and 104 with 3 other families, and used a total of five 3-4 person tents. We had plenty of [level] room to spread out. Our sites backed up to hundreds of acres of uninhabited forest, while also being within short walking distance of the camp store and visitor center.

    Sites were non-electric, and there were no receptacles to be found anywhere close, even at the conveniently located (and very clean) bathrooms. Bring Your Own Electricity, but please note the generator quiet hours. (Solar generators and power stations for the win.) Fire rings are very heavy cast iron with with very sturdy, adjustable-height cooking grates. They really put out some heat once you get the fire going, and are very easy to cook on.

    They don't want you bringing in outside wood for obvious reasons, and they only sell compressed saw dust wood bricks at the camp store. They work well once you get the hang of them, don't smoke much at all, and keep you warm. However, at ~$7.50 for a case of 6 blocks, they can get expensive quickly if, like my family, you're the kind of campers that like a good fire.

    Overall, park was clean, quiet, and each site has just enough space for you to ignore the people around you if that's what you're into. We love all of the cheesy tourist traps in Cave City, and love the centralized location between Nashville and Louisville--allows me to easily camp with close friends I have in both cities. Already planning on coming back regularly.

    Great vibe

    People here were kind and trustworthy. People were charging their power stations unattended in the bathrooms. We were given extra wood by our neighbors. Other neighbors notified us when they saw us leaving stuff behind (just wood).

    The bathrooms have a cool log cabin-like window at the top. There are trails that leave the campground. Fireflies are great at night. Frogs are singing in the evening. Tons of trees and shade.

    Only downside is maybe the camp store closes really early. I think maybe 5? By the time we got there our first day it was closed, so my son was bummed we couldn’t have a fire.

    Deam Lake State Recreation Area Campground

    First time camping

    Stayed in D04. Had 30 amp plus 20 amp hookups. Picnic table. 15 pieces of firewood for 5 plus tax. Friends stayed in the chickadee cabin and d03. Neat cabins all wood with Portable AC.

    A few hikes. Horse camping so was cool to see the horses. A beach location and a few fishing spots.

    The lake doesn’t allow non electric motors so waters were calm. Caught some bluegills.

    Public restrooms and showers.

    Ice in the area cheapest at the truck stops and gas stations 2 10lbs for 5 bucks.

    Would stop again if in the area.

    Elizabethtown Crossroads Campground

    Really nice!

    We stayed here one night. It's a small campground about 35 mins from Louisville and has about 40ish sites for RVs with electric and water, some with sewage. Our site was fairly small and pretty close to other sites but it was easy enough to get into and fit our 12ft pop up without issue. They have 2 bathrooms(the one by the laundry/store is very nice!), a catch and release pond(small, but there are small bluegill and some bass), a nice playground, clean pool, store on site, and overall we had a great time. There are also several connections for wifi, and cable(we didn't try it). The staff seemed very nice. Our site without sewage was $30 plus tax, they also offer tent sites and small cabins($40-50 with air conditioning) if that's your thing. Our site was nice and shaded. We were disturbed a few times by trains in the middle of the night- otherwise it was pretty peaceful and quiet.

    Quaint spot for National Park

    I took my family for two nights and we were surprised how quiet and well behaved everyone was. The spots are right up on each other but no loud music, generators or drunks. Dumpster is by the corner store that also makes sandwiches if you don’t want to grill out. Fire ring and picnic table with enough room for two small tents. Bathroom was very clean and the walk to the visitor center was 10 minutes.

    Mammoth Cave Campground — Mammoth Cave National Park

    In the Heart of the Park!

    Clean restrooms, coin-OP showers, very well-maintained fire pits, and within biking or walking distance of the visitor's center (where the tours run from).

    Definitely book cave tours in advance. When I visited they only had one walk-in tour available due to Covid restrictions.

    It was still worthwhile!

    Also was able to hike most of the trails in the main part of the park in a four-hour morning.

    More trails are accessible via Green River Ferry on the other side of the river.

    Also, check out the kayak/canoeing rentals in the area.

    I have my own kayak and found a service that would drop me off and pick me back up 8 miles down the river for $30!

    Great park for quiet camping. Picnic table and fire ring at each site. All have electric hookup...others are full service. Many relatively secluded sites. Bath houses clean. Multiple hiking trails which can be mixed and matched for longer hikes..all moderate.
