Nice place, friendly staff & beautiful scenery. I highly recommend any informational tour that Mrs. Hannah, Park Naturalist offers! She made “Befriending Bats” tour very fun with history, knowledge & personality plus. THANKS HANNAH🌻

Nice smaller state park! Very small campground. But quiet and so convenient to I65. Get site 1 if available. Fun tour of caverns, especially if you’re not a connoisseur. Staff very friendly and helpful.

My only complaint was the cave was closed the day we went for removal of the winter wonderland decorations. I have been there before but wanted to go with my girlfriend.
