Incredible Cave Camping Experience
Unique camping experience that I had the pleasure of enjoying for a few nights. I wish I could have stayed longer. I loved the cave site so much. There were hardly any bugs and it felt very comforting. It was cooler as well in there. There was hardly any noise pollution and I had such a peaceful experience with my pup. Beautiful area, lots of stunning trails nearby which was so surprising to me. Overall, it was an absolute pleasure to be here. The owner was very kind and fast at communicating.
Keep in mind it’s darker in there (which I liked), muddy on the ground (but not too bad & we had the deck for our tent provided as well as tarps we brought for the ground), and it’s a bit of a walk. Not too far at all of a walk since I could get my car up to the parking spot before the walk to the cave, but I’m an avid camper that has walked further for sites before.

Clear directions and quick responding hosts! Cave was a little wet but the planks laid down for walkways made it hard to notice. Beautiful view from site!

Cave Site
Should be marketed for backpackers
I would rate the experience 2 or 2.5 / 5 stars
They send you a message after paying, saying that ATVs are really needed to tote your things. After booking they also recommended a wagon. Why say this after booking? Why not put in listing
The walk from your car, to the site is about half of a mile. About 1/3 of it is extremely steep. Not a joke, steep.
The entrance is very steep, which would be fine if you didn’t just have to carry a whole bunch of things 1/2 a mile. should have at least a rope to hold on to
They should offer some type of ride with your things, even if it’s at additional cost.
We have a AWD, and were not comfortable what so ever driving any closer. They said people have done it before and needed a tow
The trash cans are by the road, so you have to carry your trash all the way back up the hill and half a mile too.
They should be at the cave site, or entrance to site.
It is very muddy on the bottom, and they should have some pavers or something, especially sense, although they said the waterfall runs all year; it was not flowing.
The two ponds advertised are not of a swimmable state
Positively there was not a bug problem
It was much cooler than everywhere else, because you are in a cave. but after carrying a tent, cooler, camping supplies, etc, half of a mile, the cave being cool helps, but you would want some running water or place to at least get hip deep in
This place should be marketed only for backpackers or ATVers

Overall our site was pretty cool. Secluded, beautiful,and plenty of firewoood and space. For us the downfall was really how unkempt the site was and how much poison ivy was in and around the site.

It is a beautiful private campsite. Very secluded with lots of space. My family and I camped there for several days and enjoyed it. It can get very slippery when wet though
