1 night at Beardsnest

My experience at the Hickory Field Campsite on Kevin’s land was exceptional. His directions were clear and the information he provided regarding the site was right on. I had such a lovely and peaceful night enjoying the campfire and the scenery. Additionally, Kevin’s friendliness and welcoming nature made me feel so content and safe while staying on his land. His 3 pups were also a highlight!!

3 nights at Beardsnest

We very much enjoyed our stay at Kevin's Frisbee Lawn. It was the perfect location for the 3 days we were exploring the Mammoth Cave area. Kevin gave great recommendations of things for us to do in the area, he and his family are extremely friendly, and are very accommodating hosts. We appreciated the ease of getting to the campsite, the amount of seclusion/privacy the site offered, and the accessibility to amenities like the power hook-up. We enjoyed our peaceful evenings cooking on the campfire and watching the lightning bugs. Most of all we were happy to be contributing to a good cause. We would definitely stay here again.

4 nights at Noble Pine Campground

Was a beautiful farm setting close to Mammoth Caverns National Park Park. Host was very accommodating and friendly. Horses n chickens. Enjoy our stay very much. Awesome sunset n stars, unless there are clouds. Loved the country air.

1 night at Noble Pine Campground

Kristen and her husband were wonderful hosts! They were very accommodating and friendly during our short stay. Theor property is so serene, we lived seeing all their farm animals roaming around. Our campsite was a good size, with its own firering, water spigot, and picnic table. Bathrooms were very clean and we really appreciated the hot water after spending 3 days backpacking! We will definitely stay here again should we find ourselves near Mammoth. Thank you for your hospitality!

Weekend Trip to Noble Pine Campground

Beautiful property, amazingly clean bathroom and showers and very friendly owner. HIGHLY RECOMMEND I loved this place.

Weekend Trip to Dragonfly Ranch camping with horses

Super friendly host, two beautiful distinct sites. Horses were lovely. Would not stay at the top site unless you are a lover of horses 🤣🤣!

Weekend Trip to Noble Pine Campground

This site was pretty nice. It was a lot closer to the drive than I expected but that wasn’t an issue when I was there. They have a ton of stuff there like shampoo, body wash, firewood, etc which is super convenient and helpful. The farm animals are right there as well which was cool to be able to walk up to them and if any horses are in the stalls you can get really close. I didn’t know before booking that there is an ATV park down the road which looked like a lot of fun if I had planned for, it so keep that in mind. The bathrooms and showers were clean as was the property.

Weekend Trip to Little Slice of Heaven <3

Beautiful property! We tent camped and had a great time. Kristal was very nice, easy to communicate with. We'll be back.

Weekend Trip to Wildcat Creek Farm in Tyrone

Wow, what a great place and an even better host. Great location. Close to everything. Thanks Kevin for the help with the flat tire. You are a lifesaver. We will definitely come back!!!!

Weekend Trip to Camp Escape

Fantastic little spot. I'll be back and thanks so much. William

Weekend Trip to Camp Escape

Once finding the entrance it was easy to navigate, and we felt very safe during our stay.

1 night at Pine horse farm

Very peaceful and gorgeous setting. Allison was very nice and accommodating!

1 night at Beardsnest

This spot is such a treat! Very close to the national park and to town, yet secluded enough to relax and thoroughly enjoy being outside. Kevin is hands down the best host I’ve encountered so far! The field is very well maintained, not buggy or swampy, and is a dog’s paradise. I will definitely be back.

1 night at Beardsnest

Had a fantastic at the Backcountry Rim at Kevin's property. The property was fantastic. They keep everything in great shape and it's a super relaxing, quiet, peaceful, beautiful location. Great views of the prairie and open sky to see the stars at night. Kevin and his boys were exceptionally accommodating and went above and beyond to make sure we had what we needed. They even delivered firewood to the campsite. Kevin gave us several great suggestions for activities in the area, was super responsive, and great to chat with. They offer kayak rentals and were able to spot us and pick us up for a 3-hour float on the green river. Highly recommend. They made sure we had everything we needed and made sure we had an enjoyable experience. You can tell they put a lot of time and effort into their work at the property and that makes it a great place to stay.

Weekend Trip to Beardsnest

We did tent camping at the Spicebush site and it was awesome! Kevin was such a helpful and gracious host and the campsite was beautiful and tucked away in a what felt like a magical forest. The walk down to the site is on a lush trail that takes about 10 minutes. If we are back in the area we will definitely stay here again and recommend it to friends!

1 night at Barren River Magic

We arrived in the rain after visiting Mammoth Caves. Punched in our gate code a little nervous about finding our spot, but 2d greeted us as we pulled in and upgraded us to a glamping building for free since he had one open. Still put up the tent but was able to wait out the rain in shelter. Beautiful spot right off the river. Provided firewood and even some kabob sticks to cook our hot dogs with. Thanks again, 2d!

1 night at Barren River Magic

I love every experience at Barren River Magic. This is my second time staying in the Tin Bin and it's a lovely, secluded spot still close to all the places you want to roam on site. 2D is a consummate host and the spaces are always interesting and comfortable. The land, however, is the real draw. Just being on site, in the woods and water, the fireflies at night, the stars, sitting by the firepit and just being...it is, in fact, Magic.

Weekend Trip to Barren River Magic

Absolutely highly recommend. The owner is amazing, welcoming, understanding, and so creative. I loved that my dogs could be off leash and the park was fantastic for my 8, 5, and 4 yo. They loved having tons of places to explore. The creek was also a huge hit. 10/10 would recommend.

Weekend Trip to Little Slice of Heaven <3

We had a wonderful weekend camping with our new travel trailer. The site was beautiful and flat gravel made leveling easy and quick. The property was park like and we were graced every day with gorgeous sunsets and sunrises. We did have to make a WalMart run and it was very convenient easy trip. Highly recommend this site!!

Beardsnest

5 sites · RVs, Tents30 acres · Cave City, KY

This new-in-formation ecological art project is currently recruiting visitors to backcountry camp in beautiful fields, on woodland rim sites, or at delicate campsites located along a system of woodland trails. As of 2025, camping here provides a glimpse into the fourth year of succession, which at this phase is characterized by spacious views of a gently rolling young prairie seeded with a growing variety of native flowers. Most likely a good fit for those who are self-sufficient and like to avoid busy camping areas, but still want to get out to the park quickly (~7 miles to the Visitors Center) or travel into Cave City (3 mi) for coffee/ice-cream/pizza/barbecue/bar/food/etc. Expand from the campsite into a sketch-work of trails, as if were camping near the headquarters of a satellite nature reserve. Water tap and hose by main house parking area, for cleaning dishes, spraying off, or filling reservoirs. Camping funds allow us to plant trees (~525 seedlings as of March 2025), establish prairie grasses and flowers, restore wetlands, create trails, and remove invasive species. If you have only 3 days, a nice way to experience Mammoth Cave NP is to break the trip into 3 layers, covering the underworld (cave tours!), upper world (hiking), and the water that connects the two (Green River kayaking). Mammoth Cave is unique in the way that a study of the underworld will repeatedly draw the mind into a creative space of imagining what is beneath the surface, how these worlds are connected, while navigating the land and water. Thanks to our visitors for supporting this type of project! Bundles of dried and split firewood are available onsite, usually a mix of red cedar and oak with a suggested donation of $6/bundle. We also share kayaks (Perception Sound 10.5) now on a suggested donation basis ($45), providing a flexible option for visitors to float the Green River through the national park. Pending availability, we offer tent setups as well to folks who want to camp but aren't traveling with gear (REI 4 person Half Dome). Tent setup comes with two sleeping pads (you will need pillows, blankets, etc.).

Also we're located 5-10 minutes from mammoth cave park border, hike, bike and horse trails, river, lake, blue holler atv park and so much more. If you are sensitive to animal noises you may bring earplugs. There isn't a bathroom/ shower house yet so we ask that you bring a port-a-pot of some sort. We're constantly making upgrades to the Ranch so we hope you enjoy your stay. Please refrain from feeding the horses or dogs because it creates a bad habit and folks that don't know how sensitive a horses gut is can possibly kill them. Respect privacy of others and pack out all that you pack in. Shut any gates you come through.please understand that my horses are of all ages and that includes young ones and babies and seniors as well. The young ones like to be nosey and are still learning what they are allowed to do and what not to do. They are naturally curious and love attention. If they think you have snacks , they can act like a pack of kindergarteners with the promise of cupcakes...we don't want that but because some campers think they are the exception and gave them snacks, it is something we have to monitor more closely. Remember they are animals and they will get into anything if it's left unattended. Please be a responsible camper and ensure we all stay safe and enjoy the experience.We have a section for folks to park in if they do not want to be so close to the horses as well. If you don't like horses or dogs please consider alternative camp site. Limited pet allowance...check before booking please. Also, we've had issues with the site and it offering horse time, ride, Q&A etc. for 5$. We've taken steps to fix this. But if you would like something like that it would be through the Ranch directly and as our time allows. Thank you for taking the time to read everything as well.
