We had a great time visiting for 5 days. The caverns were fun and the campground was clean. Site 25 is super tight backing in and several of the others are as well. But, Ray, the volunteer camp host, Jack (aka Bob) cavern tour guide and the park staff were amazing. The early evening bat show was new, but also fun. Overall a great experience over the 5 days.

We came on a stormy day, and it was the perfect activity to get out of the rain. We started in the gift shop to purchase our cave tour tickets. We arrived five minutes before the last tour, and I do not recommend that. Tours sell out, but I was pleased to be able to make it onto the last tour. The gift shop closed after the last tour started, so I wasn’t able to check out much there. There were several people browsing and buying several souvenirs in the short time I was there. My party consisted of two adults and one child, and we all enjoyed the tour. I was amazing that such a cave existed in Florida. We were able to learn a lot and take lots of cool photos. We didn’t have much time after the tour, but we did check out part of a trail and decided that we needed to come back for the trails in the future. All staff encountered were friendly and attentive.

Definitely make reservations ahead of time online. We were there to check in for our tour and the families that didn't have tickets yet were being told there wasn't any availability for the next four hours. There definitely isn't enough to do in the town to kill that much time. The tour was awesome, we'd never been in a real cave before. We all thought it was so cool. They say it's strenuous, but it's not really. The footing is tricky because the food is slick and wet in spots. You will have to crouch down in numerous spots to walk through, but it's not claustrophobic at all. The rooms are all pretty big, it's just transitioning between them that you need to be careful. Our guide shut all the lights off at one point, which was unnerving, but a cool experience at the same time. Absolutely a must see in Florida. I had no idea we even had any caves here.

We took a quick day trip today and had the BEST time! Our tour guide of the caverns was Alec and he was absolutely incredible. Alec was kind, patient, funny and knowledgeable. He really made the tour so enjoyable! He’s such a gem! The walking trails around the park are well maintained. Hikes were definitely more challenging than I’m used to with all of the inclines, but manageable and fun. Be sure to get there early if you want to go on the cavern tour. The tickets sell out fast! I hope to come back soon and spend more time enjoying the rest of the park! Thankfully, the friendly woman at the entrance gate advised us to go straight to the gift shop to purchase our tickets, which was a great tip!

10/10 recommend. My only complaint is we didn't spend more time there. We started several trails but didn't get to finish them. It's huge and beautiful out there. Loved the cavern tour and the cute little shop. We had some amazing RV neighbors too. Sweet older couple from up north. Wonderful family experience!
