Mammoth Cave Horse Camp

There was almost no one else staying there when we stayed - it was very quiet and peaceful. This campground is set up to handle campers with their horses. We do not have horses but could see that for people with them there were many facilities support them such as very new looking stables, hitching rails at each site and lots of trails. This camp is off the. Beaten track. If you are using your GPS to get there check whether it is taking you through Mammoth Cave National Park. If it does and you have a class A or C don’t do it. That road takes you across a ferry which cannot handle large vehicles. We would stay again if in the area.

We decided to visit the area during the spring season and the camp was nearly empty. In speaking with Chris, the manager, he mentioned that we had just hit the right weekend for the weekend prior was booked and the upcoming weekend is heading that way. We felt we had the place to ourselves. It was great. The campground was very spacious with plenty of open space. Chris was a great help in providing us with information on the area, places to go, and directed us to a great mountain bike trail, Maple Creek. We did use the private showers and they were large and clean.

Thank you so much Chris for your time and your commitment to horses, the campers, and the youth.
God Bless,
Doug and Robin Wagner

It is a little off the beaten path but you are only 8 miles away from Mammoth Caves National Park Visitor Center. The RV Park has direct access into the trails into Mammoth National Park. The bathrooms and showers are clean. There is also a place to do laundry, $2 a wash $1 a dry. The only negative thing I could say is this is a horse camp so there is horse poop all around. Otherwise great place to camp.
