This is a newer park and very nice. The sites were very large and level. Lots of young landscaping. Great for big rigs. Location is convenient to Mammoth Caves and Bowling Green. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

The only reason I didn't give it a 10 was because it didn't have concrete pads. This campground has manicured grassy areas between level fine gravel pull through sites with gravel driveways. They are pet-friendly and also have nice fenced-in grassy area for your pet to run. Sites are placed well apart and each has a young tree, and some have a campfire ring and a picnic table. These will accommodate the largest rigs. It is surrounded by corn fields, but less than a half mile walk to the Cracker Barrel restaurant. Mammoth Cave, the largest cave system in the world, is a quick 5 miles away. The are two halves with the office and a very small store, laundry and restrooms in the middle. We were in site 25 farthest away from the train tracks, but the trains were not that often and not obtrusive. The setting is a quiet rural setting, but several gas stations and fast food restaurants are a half mile away. We had Enterprise Car Rental in Glasgow, 8 miles away, deliver to our campsite a car for us at no extra charge. No pool and no playground makes this campground very attractive for some. Even after several days of rain, there were no mosquitoes or standing water and the sites and driveways had no problems. They offer 73 channels of cable TV including HBO. Sites offer a clear shot for satellite connections. Cell phone connectivity is excellent. We would definitely stay here again. We camped here in a Motorhome.

This was a very pleasant surprise! We overnighted at this park and chose it based on the positive reviews here. The park appears to be newer and very well thought out. The sites all appear to be level and pull-through, which make it a fantastic overnight stop. The office staff was very friendly and led us to our site even though we could see it from the office (which was great since we'd had a long, rainy drive). Utilities were great, with good cable TV, open sites for satellite, and good Wi-Fi. While the landscaping is fairly new, it was very well-done. The park had one of the best pet walk areas we've encountered. All grass and quite large, with bags and trash can provided. There weren't even any bare spots, which was amazing. The only reason we had to take a point off was the train noise. If you have pets, you'll want to be closer to the pet walk but that puts you closer to the train. It doesn't blow the whistle late at night, but you can still hear the rumble. Of course the park can't move the train, but it is the one downside. We will definitely stay at this park again, and next time for more than an overnight so we can explore the area. We camped here in a Motorhome.

The park looks fairly new, is very clean, has pull-through sites that are level and large enough to accommodate a big rig RV and tow vehicle. It is pet friendly, has a fenced grassy area for pets to be off-leash. It is very convenient to exit #53 on I-65, and is situated close to restaurants (Cracker Barrel, McDonald’s, Pizza Hut, Subway, Wendy’s), fuel stops and motels. We were able to get the free Wi-Fi and 70 cable TV channels at our RV site. The laundry area is very nice and clean with two large capacity washers and dryers. The restrooms and showers are in top-notch shape. All roads and sites in the park are gravel. Most sites have a picnic table and all sites have a good-sized area of grass separating the RV sites. The staff personnel were very friendly. Noise comes into the park from: 1) daily trains as they pass the park and blow their whistles at the road crossing one-half mile away on two active train tracks adjacent to the south side of the RV park, and 2) car and truck traffic from I-65 about a quarter of a mile north of the park and highway 90 next to the RV park. We stayed in the north end of the park and did not find the noise from the trains or the traffic to be overly disturbing. We would stay at the park again because it was very convenient, well maintained, and extremely clean, and all the staff were very friendly and courteous. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

We chose this park because someone had said he would "shower there without shower shoes". Boy, he was absolutely correct. The bathroom shone so much I nearly needed to put on sunglasses. Very impressive! A nice quiet area and wonderful facilities for the dogs with the large fenced dog run. We would gladly stay here again and again! We camped here in a Motorhome.

Neatly maintained - all pull throughs - all gravel roads and sites. Friendly staff. Only negative was that a train travels nearby but noise wasn't sufficient to waken us. Would definitely stay here again. Spent three days here seeing the Mammoth Cave as well as playing golf in the area. Cave City is fairly small with a number of fast food locations. For access to larger stores (Wal-Mart, etc.) city of Glasgow is only about 8 miles distant. We camped here in a Motorhome.

The first item on my list is to check the bathrooms before we check into a campground. The bathroom was immaculate! It was so clean I would have felt comfortable not wearing shower shoes! We were checked in by a very friendly gentleman, Paul, who I assumed was the owner. His wife, Connie guided us to the campsite, which was located next to the pavilion and across from the shower facilities. Our rig, is a motorcycle pulling a tent trailer, so they knew we would need their facilities. They also informed us that the weather forecast was for storms and steady rain for the next evening and the next day. That was the other reason that they put us on that site so we could use the pavilion. The next day, we actually met the owner, Jeff, who is an outstanding person. We did enjoy our one day of rainy weather by spending time in the office, talking to Jeff, playing checkers, reading, checking our e-mail (which we had access to at our campsite). If you are ever in Kentucky to see the Mammoth Cave National Park, I highly recommend spending several nights at this park. It certainly was our pleasure finding this treasure in Cave City. We camped here in a Tent Trailer.

Great park, would have given it a 10 if the streets & pads were hard surface. They were gravel but level and the pull thru sites were plenty long. Restrooms were immaculate. Laundry only had 2 washers and dryers. Close to plenty of eating places and Wal-Mart was 10 miles away in Glasgow. Management very friendly. This is the best park in the area. We would definitely stay here again. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

There was no picnic table at our site, plus we do prefer shaded sites. We were immediately next to the pavilion, so we used the tables there, however, had there been a private group using this area, we would not have had access to a table. The trees were young trees, so in the future this will not be an issue. Restroom and shower facilities were excellent. We camped here in a Motorhome.

We loved this campground. Even though it’s small, it has a lot to offer. The roads and sites are gravel and there is a lot of room between sites. The campground is immaculate and so are the bathrooms and the laundry room. You can eat off the floors. They even have a fitness room on site which is free. The staff is very friendly and they constantly ask if there is anything they can do for you. They guided us to our site and answered all our questions. The campground is close to the Mammoth Caves, Lincoln’s birthplace, and the Corvette Museum in Bowling Green (20 miles). Since we liked this campground, we extended our stay and drove an hour and a half to Louisville to visit the Louisville Slugger Museum, Churchill Downs, and the Kentucky Derby Museum. We would definitely come back. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

This is a big rig friendly campground. Every site is pull through. My total length (5th wheel, scooter trailer and tow unit) is 59' and I still had room to unhook and was still withing my space. All spaces are level, front to back and side to side. Although near interstate and major highway, traffic noise was not noticeable. Clean and neat. No full time campers. Trash pick-up everyday at your site. RxR at rear but it stops running during the night and there is extremely little noise when it does go through. Within 20 mins of Mammoth Cave and 35 mins of Bowling Green and tons of shopping nearby. Would definitely stay here again. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

We stayed at the Cave Country RV Campground over the 4th of July weekend. It was very clean, well kept, and a perfect base of operations for several side trips including; Mammoth Cave Park, Camping World in Bowling Green, Barren River State Park. The cable TV and wifi were top notch. The owner was very nice and appreciative. Landscaping was very nice. Dog run was well maintained and a big hit with the traveling K-9's and their owners. While this isn't necessarily a destination RV park it is great as a base of operation for several side trips, or a great, easy to access stop when traveling thru KY on I-65. The only reason I gave it a 9 instead of a 10 is I would've liked to of had some more mature trees, but that will take care of itself in time. If you have kids, there is a small go-cart track and arcade nearby that was a big hit with my 13 year old. We camped here in a Motorhome.

We spent one night here in a pull through site. Conveniently located to Mammoth Cave NP and easy access from the highway. Gravel interior roads and sites. Each site had a concrete patio area. Cable TV and Wi-Fi was great. Staff very friendly at check in and guided us to our site. Not a great deal to do here for children, but a good over night stop. If you are a light sleeper be aware of a railroad line behind the park. We camped here in a Motorhome.

The campground must be fairly new because there aren't any large trees to shade the campsites. That would be the only thing to improve and it looks like they've planted some trees. The site was level, the hookups easy, and the people pleasant and helpful. The wireless internet went out about 10pm and didn't come back until the next morning. It wasn't a big deal, but it cut short our IM session with the kids back home. We stayed overnight and moved on, but there are lot of family activities in the immediate area. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

Fairly new campground so trees are not mature--but everything else about this place was perfect!! Nice folks, clean sites, good laundry-but small, easy on and off the highway. Close to Mammoth Cave, Lincoln sites, the 400 mile yard sale, Bowling Green, Good shopping in Glasgow--10 miles away--lots to do--great place for kids to stay for a few days. WiFi was spotty--but fixed during our stay. There is a close railroad--but we didn't even hear the trains at night--occasionally you can hear a truck on the highway. we will stay here again on our way through Kentucky.

This park provides easy access from I-65 and has nice pull through sites which are gravel and level. The park is well maintained and looks very appealing. Our only complaint was that there was essentially no Wi-Fi even though the park said this was available. The 30.80 was after application of discounts. This was high we felt. We were also blocked somehow and could not get our dome satellite to receive a signal. The park had an excellent cable system, however. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Very nice parking lot-type place, with gravel paving and grassy areas dividing the sites. The bathhouses were very clean. The light and fan come on automatically, so sometimes they shut off while you're in the shower. The free cable and wi-fi were excellent. The hosts are friendly. The game room/fitness room has ping-pong, pool, foosball, and high-quality stair machines and weight benches. It's pretty close to I-65 and train tracks, so it can be noisy from traffic. Lots of places to eat right nearby. We camped here in a Motorhome.

This was our first time here and we will definitely be back. Cleanest restrooms anywhere. The staff is very friendly and helpful. All large pull-thru sites. I'm sure children are welcome, but seemed more geared towards adults, since there wasn't a pool or playground. Beautifully landscaped. Nice laundry room. There's a picnic shelter and meeting room if you travel in a group. Game room. Also a fenced in area for your pet to run and have fun instead of being on a leash all the time. Plenty of room between the lots with grass and young trees. In the office, there's a small store that offers some essentials that you might need for your camping experience. Downside would be more sites would need a picnic table and fire rings. Also there's a train track nearby, so if you're a light sleeper and don't have your air running, you might get awaken during the night. But the positives way outweigh the negatives. It also offers cable and WiFi free of charge. Definitely a BIG 10 in my book! We camped here in a Motorhome.

This campground is not child friendly. There is not a pool or playground. Picnic tables at each site would be nice (we had to move one from another site, which meant someone else would not have one) as well as fire rings. The availability of trash bins/dumpster would be nice, too. There are only 3 fire rings that I am aware of in the entire campground, individual campsite fire rings would be great. On the positive side, the campground is beautifully landscaped and clean. The WiFi service is one of the best we have had the opportunity to use. Conveniently located to all area attractions.

Park is only a couple years old. New owner as of end of May. He was exceptionally nice and showed concern that everything was to our satisfaction. Long wide sites that are perfectly level. Good water and pressure. Strong, consistent power. Very convenient off/on I65, but far enough that road noise was not a problem. Even a nearby train track was not bothersome. Not a lot of amenities but then we never use the pools, volley ball nets, etc. that obviously you end up paying for. Makes a great "base camp" for exploring that area of Kentucky. They have a very nice looking group activity center & excellent pavilion so this probably would make an excellent place for a small group rally. I absolutely will stop here again.

We arrived after the office closed. Our reservation had been made online therefore our check-in was easy and the paperwork, information and site assignment was in the drop box. Very easy. I agree with the statement that it is a very simple, basic park. It's quiet. Our view looked out onto a crop field. It's a great location for those who will be taking in the area attractions. It had the feeling of being a newer park. There aren't fire pits or campfire rings. There is one fire pit at the pavilion at the center of the campground. I do not have any complaints about this RV park. We camped here in a Motorhome.

This is a nice park that attracts older campers. There are nice, easy pull thrus with full hookups. If your kids need a pool and playground, this probably isn't the place for you. We used the park as a base camp to explore the area with our 7 and 9 year old children. Our kids had fun at the campground even without the amenities. The bathrooms and laundry room are spotless. There is not a lot of shade. There is a some highway noise and train noise, but it didn't bother us. One note, though: The park has a new owner as of Memorial Day weekend. He is very nice and is working very hard to maintain and even improve the place. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

This was a good park. Located close to Mammoth Cave. Easy access and gravel road and sites. Modern hook-ups, no shade or trees, looks like it was just landscaped will look nice when trees get bigger. Staff was helpful. It was not very crowded, but it was cold. Wireless internet was good. Sites also had picnic tables. We stayed 2 nights and have no complaints. Also had a Good Sams special for $9.95 instead of $19.95 if you signed up with through them...of course I signed up. I would stay at this park again. No frills but nice.

This is a new park only 1/2 mile off I-65. If you are looking for true 50amp, easy pull-throughs and a friendly staff, this is the park for you. The owner is very knowledgable about the surrounding areas as well. Though there are no trees and no pool, we will stay here again whether passing through the area or staying for some time.

This park is a nice place to stop for an overnight. It is truly "big rig friendly", but it lacks kid friendly activity. No pool, no playground. The spaces are tight, there is a common "fire pit" and covered area for a group to meet, but no fire rings at the sites. The park is very new, so the trees are still saplings. There is a very active rail line along the back of the park, trains run about every twenty-two minutes, but the only time I heard a train whistle was when the deer were on the tracks. This seems to be a common activity in the early morning and early evening. WiFi is pretty consistent since the park is small, but the park admin do not know anything about how it works. We camped here in a Motorhome.

New park with modern laundry room. Every thing very clean. Great access to Mammoth Cave NP. One word of caution on the Wi-fi here, there is something fishy in their setup. I did mention it to an owner but he seemed indifferent. Do not access any financial sites or sites that you do not want someone else seeing. If your PC is setup correctly you will see a popup box warning you about the 'security certificate ...'. This is what you see on TV news programs warning you on having your personnel information stolen. Beware. Other than that the Wi-fi worked fine and I would return. We camped here in a Motorhome.

This is a great place to stay if visiting the Mammoth Cave area. Everything is brand new and works well. Wifi is free, Cable is a small additional fee (but includes HBO). Sites are reasonable, and angled so the views are of neighboring fields rather than neighboring RVs. Very friendly and helpful staff, giving advice and brochures on where to go and what to do. The only negative is the trains that go by. They're reasonably far from the sites, but not quiet either. If that won't bother you, then by all means this is a great place to stay. We camped here in a Motorhome.

The Crystal Onyx Cave is closed. We were told by locals that a communications company bought the mountain and closed the cave. The campground had weeds growing a couple feet high, the restrooms looked bad with the doors and screens opened; they looked like a place we wouldn't go in. The sites looked like they would accommodate a tent camper at the most. The "host cabin" was abandoned, opened and rotted ceiling tiles were falling off. There were some dead branches stacked up, but I don't know how long they had been there. The whole campground looks abandoned. We camped here in a Motorhome.

This is our third year staying here. They have a Halloween celebration that my kids really enjoy. The bath houses were clean. The grounds were well manicured. The camp office staff were very friendly. They have a nice putt putt course. This time of year the pool and water slide were closed, but they looked to be nice. Campsites are gravel. I did have to level the RV a little, but it was not bad. We had a site with water, electric, and sewer hook up. Of the 3 sites we have stayed in over the last 3 years, I liked this one the least. It is a bit pricey, but if you are traveling with kids, I'd highly recommend this park. There are many activities for the kids there. We camped here in a Motorhome.

This is a nice campground and staff, perfect park for children and adults alike. We stayed two nights during mid-week, so it was not very crowded. Very few of the sites are level, so plan on leveling your rig. There are plenty of activities for children, Yogi characters available, putt-putt, pool and facilities clean. The Ranger station was very clean with helpful staff, plus stocked with many items you may have forgotten at home. There is a very cool water slide, the kids loved it; $8/day or $15 for entire stay. It is a nice place to visit and we plan to stay again if in the area. We camped here in a Motorhome.

First time visitors for this park. Good campground location for area attractions. The campground itself offers a variety of sites and activities. The staff had an organized activities schedule. There was plenty of staff present through out the day. Quiet hours seemed to be enforced, or we were just lucky to have courteous neighbors. The pool area, bathrooms and other amenities seemed clean and well maintained. The WiFi worked well. As mentioned in another review, there were some trees but not on every site. The roads were a bit steep although that did not deter little kids on bikes. One of our dogs nearly was run down by a kid who couldn't steer or brake well enough coming downhill. We would use this campground again but on a less busy time of year. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

If you are camping here be prepared to level your unit. I don't believe there was a level sight in the park. Additionally, a lot of the park was not "functioning". The cable was out, the coin machine was broken in the laundry, there was allot of trash and debris in the play area, and the pool was clean but rough. On a better note. The people were very nice, the campground had a nice atmosphere, Yogi was out and about and available, and in all actuallity we had a good time. We did explore some of the other campgrounds and decided that when we are back in the area we will stay here again. There was one park very near that was nice, but did not offer the amenities for the children. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

Stayed 4 nights at the campground. The facility is a little older but was keep very clean. The owners seen to spend lot of time and money on the place based on the number of workers and time you saw them about. They had all the amenities you would expect for the Yogi title (pool, water slide, putt-putt, games, hayrides, etc.) They basically had a planned activity every hour for the children. Our 3 children (11,9,7) had a absolute ball while we there there. I would have given this place a 10 except for a few items. Some of the spots are a little short. Our 32' trailer had truck took up every inch of the site. Some of the spots could also use some leveling. I think we had to raise one side 6 inches and the back levelers were basically on the ground. Also some of the older trees have disappeared so some of the spots were completely out in the sun. These are minor items that didn't affect the quality of our stay, and this campground was the highlight of our trip to Mammoth Cave. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

We camped here over the July 4 holiday. They have a wonderful fire works show. The campground is a bit overcrowded and was very loud. We had to keep our fan running overnight to block out noise from other campers. We stayed till Monday and the campground cleared out on Sunday. It looks as though they are working on the campground. The area we were in is newly paved. They do have a lot of activity for the kids. The bathhouses were very nice and clean. We probably would not go back here because we mostly went to go to Mammoth Cave, but the park is not that bad, except the sites are a little to close behind you. It looks to be the best campground in the area. Also, they do not have cable tv as advertised on their website. They did refund our money for that. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

I had booked this to stay for the 4th of July weekend. I was told site 100 was a great site, and the gentleman that I had talked to on the phone said he couldn't believe that it hadn't been booked yet as it was a large and very nice spot when I had originally called. I arrived on Thursday the 2nd of July with my mom and everything at first went well with the check-in. As I started my drive through the park, I couldn't believe how old and dated that it looked for the price that it was. 55 bucks??? Seriously?? and you still have to pay another 8 dollars a day to use their waterslide. When we got to the site, we actually laughed out loud. It was tiny and where you would step out from your RV there was no landing whatsoever, it kind of rolled off down a hill, just terrible. I then used their wi-fi to find the other campgrounds in the area hoping that some had availability this close to the 4th. I came across another campround and they were more than half the price of this dump. Oh, the only reason I gave Jellystone a 2 was because they did fully refund my money, which I will say was decent of them. We camped here in a Motorhome.

We camped here for the first time in a pop-up camper. The site we were placed had zero shade.(I noticed that there is not much shade in this campground.) The bathrooms were kept clean. The pool was nice, although a bit crowded at times. The waterslide was broke, so they gave everyone free mini-golf, which my kids loved. The staff was so-so...lots of kids working there. A couple of them were very accommodating, a couple of them weren't. We may or may not stay here again, depending on whether we could obtain a spot w/ shade. We camped here in a Tent Trailer.

We were on an electrical/water site (#16) in the middle of the park. There were many things for the kids to do around the park and it is very close to Mammoth Cave NP. Some of the facilities are a bit dated, but they are maintained quite well. The staff was very friendly. The waterslide was out of order during our stay, but the pool was nice and clean. I guess the only negative issue were the number of flys around the park. I think it may be indicative of the area as we saw them around town as well. We'll be back next time we come down to the caves. We camped here in a Tent Trailer.

The number of things at the park for our grandson to do was the reason we choose it and we were not disappointed. The staff was very friendly and helped us in every way.

We camped here over Easter. The interior roads were not in the best shape, but good enough for the kids to ride their bikes/scooters on. Our site was quite spacious. Not a very strict park when it comes to where you camp, my cousin turned his motorhome to face ours, no one had a problem with that. Sites are very unlevel, but not a problem if you have jacks.

Decent park, lots of activities in the park even in April. Most of the access roads are gravel and some are washed out. We had trouble getting in and out of our site because of drop offs from the site to the access road. There were a few sites that would be big rig friendly, but most where not 35' friendly. Sites are also unlevel. We had to block up the rear tires quite a bit to keep from lifting them off the ground with the jacks. Decent park I suppose, just a few FYIs for you.

This is the second time we have stayed at this park. We brought our children for the Halloween celebration that the park hosts. There is something going on all through October. The children had a ball. There were lots of activities planned for the weekend. At almost every hour of the day there were activities planned. The shower houses are older and they do show their age but are clean and well kept. Sites are gravel with picnic tables and fire rings. We had a site with water, electric, and sewer hookup. There are 2 playgrounds that I saw for the children. A large one near the pavilion and a smaller one which we were right next to. We found this as a plus since we were traveling with 8 children. I would recommend this park to anyone that is traveling with children. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Overall this was a fairly nice campground. However the two things that stand out are that some of the sites are no very level and the price. $45 per night at the end of Sept, and the pool/water slide had already been closed. Too pricey for us, and we probably will stay at a different campground in that area on our next trip. The staff was very friendly and helpful and our youngest son enjoyed the hay ride and flag raising with Yogi. There is a small shop in the office to purchase gifts and some camping items. Bathhouses were clean and plenty of hot water was available. Campground was nice and clean. We enjoyed our stay, but like I stated above, too pricey, so we probably will not stay here again.

The bath houses were very clean. They were cleaned 3-4 times a day if not more. There were one or two older employees who were a little less than nice, but most of the others were nice and helpful. The kids loved the 300' water slide and the pool but I though the pool area could have been cleaner, and they should not allow food to be eaten in and around the pool. We bought the wrist bands for the unlimited slide and mini golf. The golf was good but only because it was included in the wristband if we paid $4.00 a person we wouldn't have done it. A golf cart rental is a must especially if you have any health issues since it seemed we had to literally walk up hill both to the pool and back to the camper! And I would recommend you renting the golf card when you reserve your site. The characters (Yogi and Boo Boo) were not very visible even though they were driven around the campground every night, they didn't make up each road so we were only able to catch one character. The Hey Hey Hey Ride was great fun for the kids and Yogi and the young man who was the sing-along leader were wonderful! If we ever find ourselves in the Cave City area again, we would probably stay there again. We camped here in a Tent Trailer.

This was the most over priced RV Park we have ever stayed at. The sites had gravel RV pads that were horribly un-level. The landscape was dismal, and there was almost no shade. I noticed a dozen or more trees throughout the park with no leaves on them, and we were there in Mid July. The utilities were in OK shape but were terribly positioned in relationship to my RV. I had to almost park the rear of my rig in the road so my sewer hose with extension would reach the sewer drop. The restrooms were clean, but no AC. There were 2 rest room buildings in the RV park, but in one of the buildings the men’s room was closed, out of order, the entire time we were there. In the only open men’s room in the park area, one of the 3 toilets was out of order the entire time we were there. The pool was large and very nice, but was always crowded. The park welcomed (for a fee) day visitors to use the water activities. The water slide was a big hit for my kids, but it cost an additional $6 per day, per kid, even though we were paying almost $45 per night. I would not recommend this park, and will not return.

This is not a camp ground where you can really bring the bicycle as the topography is quite steep in places which makes it difficult to ride bikes.

We had a good time with our kids and their friends. No problems checking in. Staff was very friendly. Camp grounds are a little run down; roads are rough. Heard that the camp ground is under new management, seeing efforts to improve the operation but have a ways to go. Camp sites are not level. Our site was not close to being level. We had to use every leveling apparatus for the front and the trailer axles yet were still not level by a long shot so had to make do. The terrain was extremely hilly, not safe for kids to ride bicycles. Maneuverability was difficult but manageable entering the campsite and leaving. We were at the lowest part of the camp ground so driving up the hill was a small challenge when leaving and dumping (also at the lowest part of the camp ground). There were many planned activities for the kids that kept them busy day and night. They had a large pool, a kiddie pool, large slide (they charged $6.00 per person per day two days max—that is a lot for five kids), three nice playgrounds, putt putt golf, and basketball. Most camp sites were semi-shaded. Went to two bath houses of which both found acceptable. Biting bugs were a nuisance in the evening but not unmanageable. Daily rate included party of seven, water and electric. Rate is acceptable considering the effort in keeping the kids busy with planned activities. Can not level the camp ground but improvements on the road, efforts to level the camp sites and perhaps either take down the slide or charge a lot less will go a long ways making the camp ground highly recommended for the money.

I really feel sorry for the new owners of this park, because they have a nightmare on their hands! This was the worst campground we have ever been to, and we have been to hundreds of campgrounds. The only things positive I have to say are that the staff was very nice and I can tell they are trying to make improvements. Where to begin - 1. Horrible sites - uneven, dirty, and when it rained, we were a half foot under water! 2. Disgusting bathrooms! 3. Horrible playground. 4. The water slide (which is an extra cost) kept breaking down. 5. Maneuverability was difficult for larger trailers/RVs. 6. They advertised things they do not have. 7. Just an overall messy campground. Unfortunately there are not a lot a great campgrounds surrounding Mammoth Cave NP. I would rather stay in the National Park without water and sewage than stay here again! We travel in a travel trailer and have 2 small children. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

We had a really good time here over Halloween with our 8 year old daughter. The camp is a little run down. The roads are rough and washed out. Most of the camp sites are not level. Some are not even close to level. That is however, the sort of thing an adult would notice. The staff was all very friendly and helpful. My daughter had a marvelous time. There were numerous activities, some were geared for younger kids, and some for older (karaoke). We will probably return here next halloween just for the activities offered for children, but not for the facilities. They are offering WiFi internet now, but our campsite was deep in a pit, and I could not get a strong enough signal to stay online. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

Great for kids, not for adults. Very uneaven gravel pull thrus. We tried 4 spots before finding one that we could level up our 38 foot MH. It looked like it has some really great cabins, but they were expensive, just like the RV sites. We thought we could probably stay in a local hotel for just about the same cost. Next time we go to Mammoth, we will find another place to stay. The campground has so much potential, I just hope that the owners level up the sites, add more gravel and make the roads in the park more user friendly for large rigs. Like I said, kids will love this place, lots of things for them to do, but adults with large rigs, beware!! We camped here in a Motorhome.

A good facility with a lot of shaded sites. I would have rated it higher if it weren't for the outrageously high price. They wanted to charge me another $2 for air conditioning. The pig was a little scary. Apparently it roams the park as a campground pet. Wasn't too keen about meeting it face to face and nose to nose unexpectedly while hooking up the sewer hose.

Older park showing it's age. Comfort stations clean , reasonable shape , but dated. C/S are
also not air conditioned. Large shaded sites, campfires allowed. Rates are a little on the high side , but inline with other Jellystone Parks . They do charge extra if your MH has a/c. My biggest complaint , pool open to day campers. Bus load arrived from local church camp , taking over pool , making it impossible to enjoy. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Lots for children but for a couple, forget it. You are paying for lots of stuff you won't even look at. Worst, the owner was obsessed with not spending money for camper comfort. Showers were cold and they would not turn up water heaters. No soap in bathrooms and worst of all smoking was allowed in office and tv lounge as well as other areas. This is not family friendly in that respect. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

A very nice park. they had many acttivities for our kids with an organized recreation program. The restrooms were cleaned several times a day and in very good condition. some sites not level, but most can manage without too many problems. Very roomy sites. They have an excellent recreatiion program that keeps the kids busy most of the day. They have Karaoke on Saturday nights which the kids really loved. we had a very pleasing experience.

If you've got young kids, they'll love it. But for the rest of use, stay away. First, the place is very run down, especially the so-called attractions such as their miniture golf course. The sites are mostly not level also, but they are spacious. My biggest problem was the noise. The Friday we were there they had a teen dance at the shelter that went on untill 11PM. The next night it was karoke untill 11. The worst was the bathrooms which were so filthy that the last day we packed and left without bathing. If you've got young kids, (3 to 12 years old) they'll have a nice time, but as a parent your going to suffer. We camped here in a camper.

This is a small, no frills campground convenient to Mammoth Cave National Park and the Interstate for people passing through. The sites are long enough, but not very wide, your neighbor is quite close. We paid $16.00 per night PA for full hook ups (50 amp) and the fastest Wi-Fi we have ever had in a campground. We would stay here again. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Good, quiet campground with very nice owner/staff. A little tight for larger RVs, but we managed, just be careful when you approach and make the turn in from the highway, little tight on that one. Site wasn't very level, but it was a good over nighter on Passport America. Pretty campground, just needs some updating. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Very friendly management! Quiet older campground, gravel roads and sites, convenient for visiting Mammoth Cave. Rate reflects Escapees discount. We planned to stay only one night, but the place was so peaceful and pleasant that we extended another night. Owner obviously cares about campers and is working to upgrade. Restrooms are older but clean and serviceable. There is a small catch and release pond. We would definitely camp here again. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

This is a small, older park located very close to Mammoth Cave National Park. Sites are packed gravel and mostly level; many are pull-through and the hook-ups were in good working order. Lots of very large motorhomes and 5th wheels stayed here on what appeared to be a Fall migration to points south. There did not appear to be any permanent sites. The small pond was nice to look out over and we enjoyed almost everything about our stay. The exception was several barking dogs that seemed to go on for hours and a group of weekenders who came in Friday night and loudly debated every topic from sports to religion; the owners should monitor camp noise more closely. Other than a few noisy campers which may have been an anomaly, this is a friendly, relaxing place to stay when visiting the area. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

We stayed here for two nights. This campground is very convenient to the Mammoth Park Visitors Center. The owners live on the premises and are very friendly and helpful. The park has a catch & release pond, propane refills and free Wi-Fi to which we connected easily. Otherwise, this is a no-frills park. The sites have full hook-ups, are gravel, and most of them are pull-through. Most of the sites are used by transients. The owners, who acquired the campground two years ago, are gradually making improvements to the facility. The bathrooms, although freshly painted, are still dated and have curtains instead of doors for the shower stalls and toilets. The bathroom floors are concrete and uneven. There was a ‘permanent puddle’ inside the entrance to the mens’ facility. We camped here in a Motorhome.

This campground has an average rating of almost 9 and I cannot account for such a high score unless points are added for the hospitality and friendliness of the owners. We stayed here because of the Passport America rate, the proximity to Mammoth Cave, and the high scores received on this website. Although the owners have done a lot to improve the campground, it still has the appearance of an old campground. Except for the occasional barking dog, the place was quiet. Free Wi-Fi was available and I was able to connect to the network but I could never get an Internet connection. I used my Verizon Air Card instead. Except for Wi-Fi, there are no amenities: just the basic services for camping. There is a small pond for catch-and-release fishing. The roads and sites are packed gravel and in good repair. The sites are level or have a modest incline. Some are big enough for the largest rigs. The bathhouse has a rundown appearance but it was clean. At the Passport America rate of $16, this campground is a bargain but I would not stay here if I had to pay the regular rate of $32. I would stay at Cave Country RV Campground instead. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

This campground has undergone a huge transformation. The owners have performed a ton of work here and it is still a work in progress. It is a very nicely kept campground and is nice and quiet!!! The owners were VERY friendly and helpful. The male owner regularly walked through the campsites greeting and checking on quests. We really enjoyed our stay here, and will likely stay here again on a return trip to Mammoth cave area. The only thing that this campground really needs, is to remodel the bath houses. They are old and small. However, they are adequate and would do the job. We have a shower in our trailer, and did not use the bath houses. They have stocked the pond with bass and bluegill and our youngest son had a great time fishing. It is catch and release, but if you want to fish for keeps, a pay lake is right across the highway from Singing hills. All in all, we enjoyed our stay here, very nice and the price is right!

Nice smaller park with really friendly owners. Entrance is a bit aggressive in 40 ft with tow vehicle but not terrible. Swing wide. Nice size, full hook up 50 amps sites, but they need to be leveled a bit more most people were needing blocks to level. We got TV & Satellite, and Free WiFi at site. Very convenient to Mammoth Cave etc. Owners are on the right track with the improvements they are making. It was also only 16.00 per night at the passport rate. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Singing Hills Campground is a small, older park, but overall is well kept. The showers and restrooms did not have air-conditioning. Which was unplesant in 90 plus degree weather. They were dated and the paint and fixtures were not appealing to the eyes, but they were exteremely clean and well maintained. The owners were very friendly and welcoming. The sites were close together, and some of the picnic tables, grills and firerings needed work. Singing Hills Campground is what I would call "no-frills", as there isn't much to do there but fish in the pond. That was OK with us though, as we were there to see the area attractions. I was very pleased with the price. Many other campgrounds, in a lot worse shape, charge twice what we paid. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

The owners were the nicest campground hosts we have ever met. The check in with the lady of the team was pleasant and friendly. The gentleman was working in the campground and came over to visit while we were setting up. The campground was a little rough around the edges. The owner was busy with his small bucket loader moving gravel around and leveling some rough spots. Much work needs to be done to make this a truly outstanding place and it looks like the owner is very busy working toward that goal. We camped here in a Motorhome.

The owners were some of the nicest people I have ever met. Campground is spotless. All the utilities worked perfectly. Bathhouses were clean, although the shower heads were sort of funky! The owners are still working hard at major upgrades since purchasing the campground which was apparently very run-down. The campground is 5 minutes from Cave City and 5 minutes from Mammoth Cave National Park. If you are looking for a campground with crowds and a frenzy of activities, this is NOT the place for you. Quiet, peaceful, and the WiFi worked perfectly right at my picnic table. My wife and I took our 12 year old grandson and our dogs and we stayed 2 extra nights it was so outstanding. Highly recommended to anyone looking for a quiet, clean easily accessible campground near Mammoth Cave. Oh, and the price: With Good Sam discount, $25/ night. PS. there is NO swimming pool--it is filled in. We will stay there again when back in the area. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

Our rate is a Passport America rate. It is easy to miss the park entrance. It would help if there were a sign before you get to the park. Also, if you use, GPS, it is wrong. The owner said he has been trying for a year to get GPS to change the mistake. Follow the directions in Passport America directory or call them. As already stated, the driveway is narrow. The staff was very friendly and helpful. Our sewer connection was right in front of where our neighbors were sitting outside. Also their firepit was right outside our window. They have put new rock in each site. It is very quiet at night. Wi-Fi is free and works very well. The owner is either putting in a new small pool or is fixing the one there. We would stay here again. We camped here in a Motorhome.

As mentioned in previous posts, the new owners are trying very hard to improve this park. Literally tons of new rock has been put in. Biggest problem I see for this park is the entrance coming off the road. It is very narrow with a sizeable ditch on each side of the culvert. I would not want to enter this campground after dark. We camped here in a 40 foot motorhome so it shouldn't be as scary for smaller rigs. Once inside the park there is sufficient room for big rigs. It is very near Mammoth Cave National Park (2.5miles) which is why we came here. Our rate is based upon our Passport America membership. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Passport America campground. Three miles to Mammoth Cave N.P. entrance and about 10 minutes away from the visitor center. Owned and manged by a very sweet elderly couple. Not much to look at from the road, old signs, dirt road, but the sites look over a pastoral field. Set back from the road so it's very quiet. Has a small stocked pond and a small pool with basketball hoop - great for kids, too small for adults. It's no 5 star resort but for $16 and full hook-ups this close to the National Park, it's a deal. We camped here in a Motorhome.
