Cave Springs Campground

I really like this campground because it is secluded and quiet. It is pretty old, the bath houses need upgrades. It is still clean and well kept in the camp site area. The trail to the lookout and cave is a little grown up with leaves and fallen limbs, but it is still worth the walk. Along the trail is an old walkway made of rock that is amazing. There are many different trails around the campsite that make it more interesting. Little shortcuts here and there. The swimming area is gorgeous if you can catch it at the right time.

Buggy. Potable water, not in site, electric, dump, clean dated restrooms. Trails, overlook. Spacious sites, pay with cash or check. $17 with electric, $12 without. Wood for splitting. Quiet times 10p to 7a. Camphost. Most sites level or able to level. No reservations. There is NO SWIMMING.

Not really all that much to see the cave has bars in front of it the over look is ok but not the best views from there. Trail signs are there but so weather worn its hard to make out the distance of the trails.

No swimming allowed anymore due to unsanitary conditions. Water comes directly from the cave, populated by bats, so the water contains their guano and bacteria. Wish I had known before going. The hike to the overlook and cave is manageable, but the trail is overgrown in spots and thorns grab at you. I wouldn't recommend it if you are at all unsteady on your feet or with young kids. There are dead trees, broken stairs, and rocks to climb over. It was tropical jungle humid and lots of bugs, so even though it was in the 80s it was absolutely stifling. Bathrooms were old and dirty. Plenty of open camping spaces -- I wonder why? At least camping is cheap, only $12 and has electric hookup for RVs though no running water or sewer at the sites though there is a dump station. There was no signage from the highway and GPS sent us astray twice before we found it. I'm sure it was nice in its day, but it's a bit run down and sad now. If you go, wait until it's cool, maybe late September or early May.

Super quiet, cell signal, bathrooms are old, but as clean as possible. Host was absolutely lovely. Plenty of trails available right from the campground, the bat cave is closed currently.
