Family fun, close to attractions
Great place to stay near caves and hiking in the national park. All the luxuries of a big campground. Lake swimming was fun. We stayed near fishing pond. Easy to get in and out with a big rig.

No Need to Leave, Kid’s paradise
There is so much to do, that 5 days doesn’t seem long at all. Staff is beyond friendly, lots of activities and golf cart rentals are a game changer! Will be back !
Great Place for Kids
We enjoyed Jellystone at Mammoth Caves. It was conveniently located in the middle of Mammoth Cave and numerous other privately owned caves. The facility was very clean and staff very respectful. The events and activities scheduled throughout the day was great at keeping the kids busy. Would have preferred keeping some of the activities open beyond 8pm given the long daylight hours. Overall a great experience.
Great location & amentities
Overall this is a great campground! Staff was friendly, sites were clean, and good activities for the kids. I would have give it 5 stars had it not been for the water issue we had at our site. We had one of the ultimate sites and poor drainage near the concrete made it an absolute mess during one day of rain. Fix that concrete and there would be no downsides to our stay.
Decent place to stay when visiting Mammoth Cave
Easy access to/from the highway. Decent place to stay if you're visiting the nearby caves and the campground there is already full.

Beautiful camping trip
I’ve stayed all over the mammoth cave area and this is a beautiful place to stay as well. I keep coming back because it’s so pretty!
Kids LOVED it
Several pools to choose from, plus a beach and water obstacle course—our kids thought they’d found paradise! The bathhouses were clean, if not the newest we’ve seen. Close proximity to Mammoth Cave. Don’t miss the Amish bakery/cafe nearby!

Golf Cart Silliness
5½ mph speed limit does not apply to golf carts. As a campground that rents them out, you would think they would restrict their equipment to follow their set speed limits
Huge Family Vacation Spot
This place makes the list each year for our family!! Each year we add people to tag along with us! This year 28 of us!! Kids Ages 3 months to 13 came along and had a blast!! This campground is the best one ever!!! Fun for all ages and plenty of activities in the park itself!! Plus there are many places to visit within a short drive to caves and the national park!

Big Rig Friendly Very Nice
Would have got 5 stars but the power would spike several times a day to 129-132 volts setting off alarm in coach. We moved spots and same issue but fewer times a day. Highly recommend Surge Protector at this park. Other than that, super nice, kid friendly, obviously, with lots to do right in the park.
So much to do!!!
This is the kind of campground you can take your kids, never leave the campground, and have fun for days. We went over a long weekend in October, with the point of the trip being to visit Mammoth Cave National Park. The campground had activities for the kids all day Friday and Sunday. We did arts and crafts, bingo, trick or treating, watched the golf cart parade, played on several of the different playgrounds, and putt putt golf.
The bathhouses were very clean, campstore is well stocked. This is a LARGE campground so renting a golf cart or bringing your bikes is recommended.
The only downside - it is expensive. We paid almost $100/night.
Beautiful Park
The park was beautiful and a packet was ready since we arrived after 7:00pm. Our fire pit was littered with trash. I notified the office the next morning however it was not cleaned during our stay.
So much to Do!!!
Tons of space. Tons of things to do. Everyone has been so nice. Lots of things for the children to do. Awesome playgrounds. Will be back.
So fun for the kids
Lots of things to do inside the campground! We’ll definitely be back! Our area had lots of trees and well maintained sites!
Campground has several playgrounds, pools, water slides, and weekly activities!
We stayed at sites 27 and 28 - both pull through. Slightly uneven but otherwise sure was great!

Great Family Time
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.
Great Facility
We have been here twice and each time was a blast! Definitely a campsite worth bringing the family too. Plenty activities for the kids, including the splash pad.
Lots of Fun!
So many things to do here! We have stayed several times and in different sites. The newer section (200’s are the site numbers) have paved roads and new playgrounds. Downfall is zero shade. It is really hot there in the summer. The older sites are more established with shade but most are gravel and not as easy to access while walking or biking. Karst beach is so nice with the wibit (extra cost but worth it). The pools are OK in my opinion. Small and hard to socially distance (which matters these days) and the water slide is a bit too rough for us, but there’s always an activity or fun to be had somewhere. At our last stay (through July 4th holiday) the gold carts about drove us crazy. They were buzzing around all hours of the day and night. Food options are great and it’s always clean. We thoroughly enjoy our visits here!
Good place by Mammoth Cave
We stayed here for spring break to visit some caves. We had a good time. We rented a golf cart for a day just for fun. The store was big and new.
Big campground, lots to do for summer
Good campground. They have a huge lake with blow up activities on it, several pools, splash pad, jumping pads, playgrounds, activities, etc. oh, and Yogi and friends, which are the kids most favorite part. Campground it’s self is typical for no state parks. All gravel, hilly, not level, little shade if any. I prefer state parks for camping, but if you want some fun stuff to do with the kiddos, a trip to a jellystone once a year is great. This one has more to do than others. Not as many planned activities as others we have gone to, but pretty good.
All about the kids
The park was all about the kids. Events scheduled through out the day. Plenty of activities including play grounds, jump pillows, pools, bikes, crafts, a lake, and splash pad. The restrooms are clean and I never had to wait. Laundry on site. My son LOVED it. All the campers kids played and had the best time.

Great!! Clean and fun!
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!
Great place for kids
Nice campground for families with small children
Wonderful fall getaway!
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.

Wonderful place to camp with kids!
We tent camped for Father's Day and there were plenty of regular activities and extra fun "fathers day" activities! I'll start with the bad and end with the great! The bad: We were given site 49. This site is not for tents. There is zero shade and there is zero grass. There is only gravel. I broke my mallet attempting to stake my tent. We had to put down 2 tarps so the bottom of my tent wouldn't get punctured by the sharp rocks. Now, the good: This place is awesome! when we checked in, the staff were friendly and very helpful. Sites are properly and clearly marked. There are 2 pools. The older one is small but nice. The newer pool is bigger and has a splash area. The site we were at was located about halfway through the campground, so it's convenient to most activities. The restrooms were very close and clean. The big slide was so much fun for the kids and we spent most of our time here. The extra Father's Day activities were appropriate for guests and super fun! We were engaged the whole time! The food at the snack bar was good and the service was awesome! There are plenty of restrooms located around the entire campground. We did the arcade and mini golf and jump pillow. All were fun! Overall, this campground is well maintained and fun!

Granddaughter loved it
I’m not a big fan of theme park campgrounds, but our granddaughter loved this one. We spent a weekend here while visiting Mammoth Cave. The site we got was full sun, so it was hot. But, there are some shade sites. Most are level and have water and electric and sewer. There was lots for a little girl to do, including a water slide. Campground store was well stocked, the bathroom/shower was clean and nice.

Wonderful family camp ground
Had a fantastic with the whole family in our vacation. Have a teenager and a 9 year old. Both had plenty to do to keep them happy.
A blast for the whole family!
We’ve been here for the week & it’s been nothing but delightful! The entire staff has been great & kind, as have all our camping neighbors!! We’ve felt welcome the entire time! All the actives are so fun & it’s even better that it’s included with your stay!!
Tent Campers stay alert
We went during Wet N Wild week and the kids absolutely loved all of the activities there were... The excitement of the Witbit the first day left us sore for a couple days after... ALOT to do at the campground and around... However this is not geared for tent camping... there are minimal shade spots and 95% of the sites are gravel...water and electric are setup for campers not tents... also the whole not being able to squirt water from or too the golf carts is a bummer and killed the excitement. we will definitely be back if a better suited area for tent camping is developed...

If you're taking kids this is the place. A ton of activities right on site. If you're not on a family trip this is not your place.
