Our group is looking forward to a great ride this Labor Day Weekend. Why stay anywhere else when you can stay at D bar K. Debbie and Ernest are great people and very accomodating. They have the perfect set up for horse and rider. Trails are fabulous.

I went to D Bar K for the All Cowgirl Weekend and had a GREAT time! Debbie and Ernest were very friendly and helpful. There is no shade at the campsites and even though I prefer some shade I wasn't there to sit around my trailer, I was there to ride. I did not experience ANY of the negative things people have written on this site about D Bar K. I enjoyed the Cowgirl Weekend so much I went back for the Thanksgiving ride and took my husband and some other trail riding friends with me.

Well i'm 12 and the last year we went for 3 days to ride.The people were really polite ans helpful,the trails were pretty easy -some of the trails were a little rough on the older horses-.We weren't big fans of dogs being aloud to run free because they chased our horses. But overall none of the horses/people were hurt.The campgrounds were clean and there was alot of room.And one last thing is everyone saying this place is "haunted" is full of it.

We enjoyed staying at D Bar K Campground near Mammoth Cave KY. The owners were nice and we were satisfied with the shower house and stalls as well. The trails were well marked and not difficult. The McCoy Hollow Trail was the prettiest but some might find it a little challenging. We thought it was the best trail. You have to take a long ride to get to it but it was worth it. There was a good little restaurant we ate at just down the road from camp with a great breakfast bar and good fish for dinner.

We really enjoyed this campground and the trails. We stayed 6 days and had plenty of riding. This place is very friendly and accomidating. Everyone there had the same feelings, that it is nice to have the owners on the grounds. That is rare. We will definately make this one of our favorites. The trails are well marked and are challenging enough and they also have some that are fairly easy but yet very beautiful.

I am seroiusly tired of people making up stories that aren't true. I was there this weekend and can't imagine anyone being scared there. This is a very nice campground and someone is trying to hurt these people by making up stories. This is ridiculous

Excellent campground. Stayed during the "All Cowgirl" weekend. We (our group of 6) especially enjoyed the relaxed atmosphere and the campfire singing. Wonderful hot showers (would like to see a couple more). Food was delicious.

This campground sure makes you feel at home. The riding is good the camping is good and I can't imagine wanting anymore than this. My child rode his first trail ride and loved it. Family oriented yet I feel they would make any group feel welcome. We will return.

Our visit here was very good. Love their facilities, stalls are 8 x 10 and plenty large. well buildt and are never in the sun. Convenience goes a long way with me. No carrying buckets of water. Plenty of stall forks and wheel barrows. Very well planned out.

My group came here over Memorial Day. This campground is wonderful. The trails are great. We had so much fun. Friendly, clean and well kept.If your at Mammoth Cave, this is the place to be.

I liked the campground. It has hook-ups and picnic tables. It is a new campground, so no shade. Nice barn but stalls a little small. Very nice hosts. The trails were in bad shape due to heavy rains in winter and spring. Muddy, washed out and rocky, with several downed trees. Trails are in dire need of maintenance, but very nice seenery.

D BAR K You all are great. We came last year and loved it and this year is no different except you just keep improving everything. It's obvious you want to have a nice place.

I believe everyone has their opinions. I did not like it here. I will not come back. I had to see it for myself too. I did not pay attention to what others said that it was a dirty place and I am sorry I did not listen!!!!!!!!! To each his own.

I've ridden Mammoth Cave for years so the trails just keep getting better and I was very glad to see a new campground in the area. We felt very welcome from the beginning and loved it. It's close to home for me and I'll still get to camp regardless of the price of fuel. If you haven't been there yet, give it a try

We had a great weekend Very nice people who own the place Very well kept and the trails were great in spite of all the rain this year. We will be back

I read these reviews before I visited the campground and decided to try for myself.This is a very nice campground better than most. Clean friendly and most accomodating. I am an avid trail rider and ride all over the country. This place is NICE NICE NICE. I will go back. The trails are great too. Well marked and a very beautiful forest. Can't wait to come back in the fall. I wrote this review because I agree with the other person who said she didn't like people who abuse these sites. People rely on them and miss out on some nice places to camp.

If you want to have a good time never ever come to the D bar K Horse CAmp. Go to Mammoth CAve and camp it is really great there.

WHATS GREAT ABOUT GETTING INFORMATION IS THAT IT PREVENTS PEOPLE WHO LOVE TO RIDE AND HAVE ONLY A SHORT TIME TO SPEND ENJOYING THEIR TIME OUT THE MISTAKE OF GOING TO A PLACE THAT IS NASTY. WHY WASTE TIME WHEN YOU CAN GO TO A GREAT PLACE. THIS IS NOT A DECENT PLACE

It's a shame that folks are abusing the system when it comes to reviewing trails and campgrounds, but that's apparently what is taking place here. I spoke to the owner of D Bar K, and the campground is NOT closing and there is NO litigation in progress. It appears that someone with ill will towards this place (a nearby rival campground perhaps?) has published a bunch of bogus reviews.

I HAVE JUST HEARD THAT DbarK HORSE CAMP IS CLOSING!!!!! IT SEEMS THE OWNERS ARE BEING SUED AND THEY HAVE NO INSURANCE TO COVER THEM. THIS MEANS MAYBE WITH DIFFERENT OWNERS THIS CAMP COULD BE GREAT. I WILL THEN RETURN BECAUSE IT IS A GOOD PLACE TO RIDE.

Everyone knows the double J is a much better park. They aleast have shade and dogs do not run around. They go out of their way to make you feel at home. It is so cozy and everyone that camps there is very nice. I love the owners. The DbarK is nasty.

I stayed at this camp during ThanksGiving and I am not sure where you were at but this camp is terrible. The breakfast would have been good if the grills and utinsils were clean. The bath room was terrible. The smell!!!! Take it from me DON'T GO HERE!!!

I visited this camp in the fall, around September. I loved the trails but the horse camp was not clean. It had no shade at all. I don't like dogs around my horse because it spooks the horses. There were dogs running every where eating off tables. I won't go back. The trails were great and Mammoth Cave is a great place to camp.

I camped there over Thanksgiving and was more than happy with everything at this campground.The owners make you feel like they've known you forever. The breakfast was great. I sure didn't have to worry about my horse in the great stalls they have. Clean bathroomsand showers. We won't go anywhere else at Mammoth Cave but D bar K!!

I've stayed at D Bar K several times this year and not once did I experience anything like what some of the others here have described. The owners of this camp are by far the most accomidating horsecamp folks I've met in a long while. They willingly do whatever it takes to make you feel at home. The breakfast that is served is wonderful. I'd have to say that who ever dealt with "Carol and Mike"???? (whoever that is) and had flies in thier food certainly was not at D Bar K. This camp is close to the trails, they have bunk rooms for those who don't have trailers to stay in, the bathrooms are heated and clean, they have a nice selection of tack for sale, and there is coffee ready every morning when you get up. If you expect more than that then you should probably stay at home.

Campground was well kept. Bathrooms were heated and kept clean. Very nice stalls with hay racks and bucket hangers. Owners really made you feel welcome. Free hot coffee and a well prepared breakfast that was very filling and for $4.00 you can't beat it. Certainly a welcome addition to the Mammoth Cave area. Also there is a full service resturant about one mile from camp that has great food for those that want a break from cooking. Ten riders in our group and we all agree this is as nice a camp as you will find.

I had a terrible weekend at this camp. It was dirty and dogs were running everywhere eating off the tables. I will never come back to this camp. I did find a camp a few miles down the road that looks great. The ride was beautiful not the camp. April

I found D bar K to be a wonderful place to camp and ride. John just must have been there in between cleanings because it was always clean while we were there. As for the owners I couldn't ask for a more welcome time. I think it's great there.

Camp Rating: 

The trails were beautiful but the camp ground was not up to par. Owners would argue in front of the campers and rest rooms were dirty. The bed sheets in the bunk house were dirty. Dogs running loose everywhere and eating off tables.
