DeSoto Caverns

We drove up from the Tuscaloosa area, which is about an hour and a half. Overall, the Caverns Park was clean, welcoming, and family-friendly. We booked Campsite #1, which looked nice from a distance but was very uneven and made leveling our camper difficult. Campsites 1–3 are positioned in a straight line, and Site 1 in particular is not level at all. I do not recommend booking Campsite #1 for that reason. The biggest disappointment was the bathhouse. The bathrooms and showers were unfortunately not well-maintained the ceilings had visible mold, and the showers appeared as though they hadn’t been cleaned in quite some time. One of the restrooms also had a strong urine odor. While I didn’t expect perfection, the overall condition was below expectations. Most of the park’s activities seemed geared toward younger children, roughly ages 5–12, so there wasn’t much offered for older kids or adults. That said, we really enjoyed our cavern tour with our guide, Roman, and the light show inside the caverns was a great addition. It was a fun and educational experience with some fascinating history definitely the highlight of our visit.

At a constant 60° year round, Majestic Caverns offers a comfortable and beautiful underground experience. Our tour guide Davis was very friendly and knowledgeable about the cavern and it's rich history. They kindly allow photos to be taken, and I only wanted to post a couple so not to spoil the experience for others. The laser light show at the end is not to be missed! There were other attractions on-site but due to our schedule we chose to only do the caverns. There was plenty of parking and the park featured an amazing gift shop. There are clean bathrooms available, and the staff is friendly and helpful.

We went on a Sunday and it was like a ghost town. So if you're not a fan of crowds this is the day to go. We went years ago when it was called DeSoto Caverns and the light show was great this was mediocre and considering the tickets cost it was over priced at $30+ per person. My son paid over 30 for 4 of us to do the panning for gems. And that was ok - we all came away with a few to take home.

The guided cavern tour was awesome. Atticus was our guide and did a great job and answered all of my kids questions. It was a great time. My boys ages 8, 6, 3 loved the attractions. The park was not very busy on the day we visited and all the employees helped to make our day fun. Judah was awesome to our boys and helped us on a number of attractions. The older boys favorite was the cave crawl box. We are definitely planning to go back around Christmas for their event. Final note the place was super clean.

We camped here for two nights—Saturday and Sunday. On Saturday, the attraction area was quite busy, but by Sunday, it had quieted down considerably. The campground bathrooms had air conditioning, which was a nice bonus. Though a bit dated, they were otherwise pleasant. The campground itself wasn’t crowded—only one other camper was there during our stay. We booked site 16 for our 30' camper, and it was a tight fit due to the fence and trees. Maneuvering in was a challenge; most other sites seemed easier to access. Sites 1 through 3 are in a straight line, so if you’re considering site 2, it’s best to coordinate with someone else booking the adjacent sites, especially if you plan to leave on the same day. Overall, the attractions were fun for families and we had a great time!
