Make memories that will last long after the campfire is out. Enjoy the farm near Mammoth Cave National Park and Nolin Lake State Park when you stay here at Noble Pine Campground in our farm tent. Inside you'll find comfortable queen bed. The seating area chairs fold out into twin beds if needed. Tent is equipped with mini fridge, microwave, and coffee keurig, A/C,
The Mammoth Cave visitor center is a scenic 25 minute drive using green river ferry route (check ferry's schedule), and hiking /equine trails are about 800 feet from camp. Charcoal bbq, firepit, table & chairs, hammock await outside. You will use the campground bathrooms with hot showers about 100 yards away. Parking is a little further on. Farm animals include horses, goats, chickens, and bunnies. If you'd like to give them treats I'm happy to introduce everyone :). There is a possibility for bugs in this natural, pollinator supporting farm experience. The obvious thing to do is visit Mammoth Cave National Park! Lots of hiking in park as close as 800 feet from the campground. Horses are welcome at our campground, we provide stalls and the park trail across the road is horse friendly. There are several tours to choose from if you’re, you may want to choose a couple. We recommend getting tickets in advance as they do sell out. (Visitor center 20-25 minutes via Green River Ferry route)
Trail rides are provided at Double J Stables. (5 minutes) Advance reservation recommended.
Nearby there is Hickory Cabins, it’s more fast food type, and only couple couple minutes away. Opening for the season April -November, The Blue Holler Restaurant serves up German and American fare. Bee spring has KY Rock grill. Bouys at Wax Marina is a fun lake view experience
The Feedmill in Leitchfield (35 min) has good breakfast & lunch & there’s a Mexican restaurant, mi Camino Real, that’s good in that area too. There’s also a Peddler’s Mall in Leitchfield if that interests you.
In Bowling Green (50-55 min) there’s the corvette museum & lost river cave tour if you’re looking for more to do.
Cave city (across the ferry 25 min) has tourist friendly activities including various caves that have been open since the early 1900s. Kayaking tours available down Green River. There are attractions such as Dinosaur World, Kentucky Down Under, & Mammoth Cave Adventure. A favorite stop for me is Leo’s woodworking as you exit the park toward cave city.
I recently went to a cave tour in Horse Cave called hidden river cave (40 min) which was kinda neat. They have antique shops nearby in the little downtown.
10-15 minutes away is an Amish town called Cub Run. They have a couple shops, the Variety Shoppe & Detweilers, which has a small bakery and deli and everything from gardening to furniture. There is a separate hunting & fishing store.
