It's been a life time of waiting but Nicole managed to finally bring us to Mammoth Cave on our trip…read morenorth to Ohio. We could not get tickets ahead of schedule as they were all booked. We got to the park when it opened at 9am Sunday morning and managed to snag some tickets for the 12:15 self guided tour. In the intervening hours I ran 10 miles in a slow drizzle on a path that was crushed gravel following along the same stretch of road that we took to enter the park. When it was our turn we were called by the over head PA to meet at Shelter for a short talk by the ranger before descending to the cave 200 ft below. A walk way takes you to the mouth of the entrance. We were able to walk a total of 2 miles in the tunnels which had an average temperature in the 50s. Wear a sweater or jacket before you go. The cave system is the longest in the world and we definitely could have kept going but were turned around at 3/4 of a mile into it. The caves possessed an artifact as old as 5000 years but the network of caves had inhabitants for much older. We got our National Park Pass stamped and also enjoyed exploring the gift shop and museum at the visitor center. The park has a great network of trails and camping and a lodge / hotel. We finished up at around 2pm and after about 5 hours in the park. It was a pristine day in the park with so much more to see, so we look forward to the next time.

Cave Country Canoe was SO great to work with when my boyfriend and I decided to spend a few days in…read moreMammoth Cave National Park. We rented one canoe (which came with oars and lifejackets), were led to the endpoint (we chose Houchins Ferry) to park our car, and were then driven with the canoe to our starting point (Dennison Ferry). We canoed around 12 miles of the Green River the first day, camped on Boardcut Island, and then finished the 20-mile trip the following morning. All we had to do at Houchins was leave the canoe, oars, and lifejackets out and make a phone call to Cave Country...so convenient! Best thing about working with Cave Country was their friendly service. They even went so far as to give us a s'mores fixings care package (complete with firestarters, graham crackers, marshmallows, and chocolate)! We also had some great conversation with their employees, both exchanging stories and getting some great advice for canoeing on the river. I would highly recommend going with Cave Country Canoe if you're thinking of making a trip to Mammoth Cave or the Green River.

We had a great experience with Cave Country Canoe (love the alliteration). The staff were very…read morefriendly and super helpful. We rented a canoe which came with life jackets and oars. We were shuttled to the drop site and picked up quickly when we were done. The prices were competitive and the service was top notch. We didn't get s'mores like the other reviewer, but we also didn't book a 2 day trip. Just FYI, the National Park Service prohibits consumption or possession of alcohol on the Green River. Fines can be in excess of $500 per adult in the boat. Also, they require that you wear life jackets, not just have them in the boat. Fines are also assessed per person not wearing one. Rangers will tour the river and ticket you for not following the rules. Safety first, Yelpers!

I thought it was closer to freeway but you soon realize it's a bit of a trek. Plenty of parking. You can purchase the tour tickets on site or online. Facilities are nice but a good majority(if not all of them?) of the interactive museum features were 'not functioning' so just wander and read all the details and stories posted along the walls. It's crazy that the place was a tourist attraction way back in the day. You'd have to plan for being on the roads for probably days to get here. Tour was cool. Very pretty. Out ranger was super personable and seemed to love his job so that's nice. Glad we decided to drop by and check it out on our way back from Chattanooga.

Ted went over the rules and guidelines carefully with our group in order to help us remain safe on our trip. He gave great advice on where to park the canoes to get out and swim.

It was a great experience that I highly recommend everyone try. The lake was beautiful, we had an amazing time.

We had a 4 year old, so did tandem kayaks which cost 55 dollars. It was a good exercise for a hot day actually as the water is super cool, if you prefer you can get off at spots and swim or picnic. We did topple over in our canoe, when we hit a tree, but it was actually fun for that to happen. Added some adventure to the trip. This was so good we wanted to do it again or buy a canoe of our own and do it it again. Owen and Mason who runs ut is amazing and informative.

They have more than your average convenient store selections, but that is basically what it is and the best way to describe it... a convenient store. The bait store portion of The Landing, has a separate entrance and seemed like a completely different store altogether, but it wasn't. You can even have your purchase at the back register, in the bait "department". The prices are like convenient stores, higher than a grocery store. Overall I was more than willingly to pay the slightly inflated prices for the convenience factor and not having to drive about 30 minutes away to the closest grocery store.

It's a ~24 mile, 2 day, overnight canoe trip. The first day there's a great waterfall which I highly recommend stopping at and playing in. The halfway point of the trip has a large sandbar/island which is perfect for camping on. There's not a whole lot of other options along the route to camp so you'll want to make sure you don't pass it. It's right after the only Bridge (other than the 1 right at the end) so it's not hard to spot. The island is all rocks so make sure you bring a sleeping pad or you'll be sleeping on a bed of rocks!. The benefit of it being all rock is that we felt confident in building a huge bonfire that night. There was plenty of driftwood and we gathered it all up and had a fire going that burned about 4 feet tall to cook hotdogs and smores on! We chose this outfitter because it was the cheapest of the 3 we found in the area but I'm having a hard time imagining the other outfitters being as great as this. If I went back I'd definitely go to this place even if it were the same price or a little more than the competition.

Lots of shade, but we stayed on the water quite a while and ended up out in the heat and sun of midday. We did not all prepare for this and are paying for that. Overall, it was a lovely float with some areas with added challenge (rocks, submerged trees, shallows) to navigate. There are quite a few rocky shore areas where you can pull up the kayaks for a break or snack. Speaking of, we brought water, but failed to bring any food. It would have been nice to have something even though we planned to eat after. The exit from the river is a bit rough, but the young men helping were wonderful. We got 3 single kayaks, and 3 upgraded single kayaks. We definitely felt the upgrade was worth it for stability, more room for heavy people, adjustable footrests, and adjustable back rest. We had a great time and definitely intend to go back again.

So we were told someone is headed back now to bring a kayak. 2 hours later they showed up with our missing kayak. The river itself was a little long for my taste, but very nice. We get to the end to drop off where we are then asked for our names because we were "late" (6:30) getting back to them. When we explained that we were actually out on the water 2 hours late the reply from the kid was "That is not my problem". Eventually we got ahold of an adult who told us it was their fault so we didn't have to pay a late fee. But absolutely awful experience start to finish. Do yourself a favor and find somewhere else.
