Best Cabin Camping near Lucas, KY

sites: horse sites available. wooded area around campground. semi-private sites. amenities: lake. pool. other attractions: lodge/camping cabins. restaurant. I would go back again.

Been several times at different times of the year. The summer months fill up quick. Great place to visit on its own or with day trips to Mammoth Cave. Water slide, 2 pools, and other things for the kids to do during the hot summers. Karaoke, and games at night at the shelter. Food in the lodge is acceptable snacks for the pool but dont expect 4 star club food. Cabin Rentals, RV Site and Tent sites. All have a fire ring. Cabin came with a golf cart. Cabins are decent. group showers and restrooms are not that great. If I had one down side. If tent camping on the weekend bring earplugs. Durring the summer the adult beverages flow in the evening and into the night and the gas powered golf carts at 2am get annoying. Over all a great place in the summer for a close family retreat.

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.

This site has some really nice cabins. You can drive right up to the cabin and park. You will have full amenities and lots of room, depending on which cabin you choose. There are big lodging cabins for large groups. There are great trails all around the lake, dam, and old historic sites. Generally very well kept. Most notable part of the campsite is the staff. They are sooooo friendly and knowledgeable. Great to talk to and helpful all the time.

We enjoyed this park so much, we are headed back! We stayed in the cute yellow with green shutter cabins nearly in the parking lot. It got hot during the day...no A/C in the cabins, but we headed underground to keep cool.

I loved the educational talks each night which was a close walk from cabins and campground. Watching the bats fly above us as the sun set during the talks was a plus.

The Visitor's Center is crowded! Tours fill up fast! So, book your tours ahead of time via the website and save yourself that headache. There are restaurants next to the Visitor's Center if you want to dine out.

I would plan for more time our next visit.   There are so many different cave tours.   We stayed in the cabins.  Nice area and the cabin was very clean with comfortable beds.   The ranger program for the kids is nice and they receive a badge when completed task in the book.  The park area was nice.   We saw deer 🦌 all evening.   No complaints.

Stayed in cabin 88 - bedbugs. Do not stay here.

When we arrived, the check in process was very easy and staff were helpful and friendly. Ice and firewood can be purchased on site. The efficiency cabin we stayed in was very clean and just perfect for 4 people. The cabin had a bunk bed and a futon bed. The kitchen had a small stove, sink and fridge. The bathroom was small but had a shower and toilet. There was a fire pit and picnic table. The jump pad was fun for the kids. The mini golf course needed a little cleaning/maintenance for the rocks and leaves on the course. The planned fall activities were so much fun for my kids. They did painting, bingo and games. All the staff we came in contact with were friendly. The cabin was situated in a convenient location to all activities. Our stay for this trip was awesome and I would recommend staying at this campground in the fall.

We have never stayed in their camper sites but we have stayed in their cabins

The sites are pretty close together but it does indeed live up to the resort part in the name. You can purchase WiFi access. There’s a pool, cabin, golf course. It’s also a horse camp with several miles of trails.

They are remodeling the old cabins that have been there since the early 1900s. And they look fantastic inside. The owner and the maintenance man were very accommodating. Would stay there any time when passing through. They are doing landscaping now and I expect it to look very nice when they are done.

Just had the most wonderful and relaxing couple of days with Ms Peggy “The hostess with the mostest!”  This is a private residence/little piece of Heaven. NOT A CAMPGROUND. We parked the camper in their front yard. Water and electric is available. Ms Peggy greeted us with a smile, brought us eggs, stuff to make s’mores and even invited us to sit on the porch and join her for supper. You can browse through the little antique shop and tour her adorable cabins. We were the only people there the first day but were joined by another camper and some Glampers on day two. FYI Cabins do not have bathrooms but the bathhouse is very close, clean and full of supplies if you need.  Lots of outdoor games for kids and adults as well as a train ride for the kiddos.  Lots of seating areas and fire pits. Wood provided. Could have stayed for way longer just to enjoy the peace and quiet and the company. We came as strangers and left as family! ❤️

Love this camp ground. Stayed in a cabin with Girl Scouts. Staff was friendly and helpful. Activities can be some what of a distance from each other, they do have golf carts to rent.  Pool was nice, gift shop and snack bar were great. Food was good. Shower house was clean. Over all great trip here. Loved swimming in the lake area!

Very clean well maintained campsite if not a little "tight". Camper lots are level and very near your neighbor. There's cabins of varying sizes that are very clean and compact. Lotsa things for kids to do from swimming to bouncy pad and hay rides. Best part of this Yogi park is its near Dinosaur World and Mammoth Cave which offer excellent scenery and outdoor activities.

Horrible place with very hateful, nasty owners. They lied to me on a booking website, insulted me for asking about discrepancies in what's advertised, would not describe what's inside the cabin and, because I asked questions about the place, called me bigoted stuff, called me not an American knowing I'm a US citizen, and later kept messaging me their hate on the booking site, harassing me.

Pros;

This is a simple little campground near Mammoth Cave. The owner is super nice and friendly.

It’s a small space with historic rock cabins near the road and the camp area is behind them in the yard area.

There is electric and water if you need it. We chose to stay in the more open area that was primitive.

There are 2 bathrooms and 2 showers.

We were the only ones camping so that was nice :)

Cons: It’s a small space near to the road. It feels a bit like backyard camping :)

What a cool park! Having been spelunking at small caves near home I wasn’t expecting this to be SO massive! The tour was impressive and informative. The park had more to offer than just caves though; there are many short hiking trails in the park as well. We stayed in one of the Woodland Cottages in a wooded area near the visitor center. Cabin was well maintained and nice. We checked out the campgrounds for family that was going to visit a couple months after us. Mammoth Cave campground was nice! Lots of trees seemed to give some seclusion to the large sites even though it was very busy. If we visit again, we will camp.

We spent two nights here in late March. We ended up being unlucky and having 7 inches of rain while we were there. Fortunately, it came in waves and mostly rained overnight. The park is very nice. The campground is pretty nice. It looks like the cabins are the main draw of this park. 

Pros: It's beautiful, quiet, and has a sweet dam. 

Cons: You have to drive within the park to get anywhere, the spots are hard as heck to back into, and the is 0 cell reception. I repeat, 0 CELL PHONE RECEPTION. That's not that big of a deal but we didn't expect it and it complicated things slightly for us. 

All in all, we loved It and will probably go back

Dale Hollow Lake State Resort Park is right on the Kentucky/ Tennessee boarder and not a short drive from anywhere. It is out in the farmlands, but worth the drive.

I drove to it from Cumberland Parkway, a very picturesque drive. The GPS took me right to the entrance no issues like there are with some other parks.

Once there the main areas are very well marked. The camp store has a somewhat useful map that will get you there by road.

My disappointment and frustration was the trails marked on the map. I'm not sure if some spurs are new, not used often or being reclaimed but we would start down a trail that had a trailhead sign and then the trail would just disappear into the weeds or a field with no signage.

The trail to Eagle Point was well used and a good walk to an awesome view.

The Campground is set up in what I call wagon train circles (lol) if your going with a large group it's perfect. People parked their toys and cars in the middle and set up in the sites around the hub.

if your not with a group you will probably have an opportunity to met your neighbor. There is not a lot of shade. There is a pool on site and cute little blue cabins to rent. Newer restrooms and a dumpstation. Tge horse ampground was adjacent to the regular campground.

The Marina and Lodge are at the end of the road and there was a golf course on the way in. Pretty much covers all the bases of outdoor entertainment.

Great amenities and perfect activities for all. Swimming walking foam gun wars, pillow bouncy and more. Golf cart rentals are a must with these hills.
