Camping/restaurants around Mammoth Cave?

Thinking about car/tent camping around Mammoth Cave/ Horse Cave. We'd like to take the kids to Kentucky Down Under and take a cave tour. Any suggestions for a nice campgrounds with clean facilities? Any local restaurants we should venture to?

Try Mommoth Cave On Line website:

I think most of the restaurants are in Bowling Green.

The Jellystone campground is nice! They have lots of activities planned and is close to MC. The Corvette Plant is a must see while you are in the area! Just call ahead to make sure the plant is open! MC is awesome!!! You will love it!

Cave City and Horse Cave exits on I65 have the typical Interstate resturant choices. Bowling Green has more resturants than any other town its size.

Mariah's on State Street is my favorite Local Resturant.

Smokey Pig off of US 31W in Bowling Green is a great regional BBQ.

Thanks for the restaurant recs, Bubba.

I had already put Mariah's on my list. It was recommended on Tripadvisor. But I did not know about the Smokey Pig!
