Recently spent the weekend here along with a couple of hundred other campers for the Eagle Cave weekend camping event. We had a group of about 35 and showed up late on a Friday night and finally got escorted into the cave to our camping area about midnight. Unfortunately, we didn't enough space for our group, so it took a while to get everyone situated. Tip #1: ensure your bring a pair of earplugs, as there is no curfew on Friday night and the noise didn't die down until after 1:30am. I skipped the 7am breakfast to get some sleep and got up late in the morning. The best thing about this cave is that the scouts were able to explore the entire cave with almost no restrictions and really enjoyed themselves. Tip #2: exploring caves is dirty, muddy fun and you should bring old clothes that you won't mind getting stained (or throwing out after the weekend). The crew at Eagle Cave did a nice job with the meals and the serving sizes were adequate. The cafeteria building is big enough, but we ate in several shifts. There was also a trading post building that had some gifts and video games for some distraction. Prices were reasonable, especially for snacks. The crew ran some games during the day by hiding things in the cave, and then there was bingo and a camp fire on Saturday night. Tip #3: ensure you bring a tarp to put your sleeping may on, as well as another tarp to put over your sleeping bag while you are sleeping (it is a cave, so it can be wet). The scouts had a really good time. The crew gave a nice tour of the cave in the late afternoon and the history of this privately-owned cave was interesting. Tip #4: bring a book and some cards or games, as you might want a break from the spelunking sometime during the day.
I camped in the cave as a boyscout years ago. Loved it! Upon a recent search for a campsite in Wisconsin, this is the first place that came to mind. We (Girlfriend and kids) explored a few options, finally landing at the cave. We checked in, picked our site, then immediately explored the cave. WELL WORTH IT!!! brought back memories of exploration for me, and a new fascination for them. We planned to stay two nights, but due to car trouble stayed an extra night. We welcomed the extended visit with open arms!!!...(I'm still not sure if the GF didn't sabotage the car to get an extra night of camping;-) Anyhow, the owner/manger is kind and accommodating. They offer canoeing at a very affordable price. This place is a must for your next camping experience!
I just want to say i have never been to Eagle Cave and i have lived within 15 miles of it all my life. My brother who just bought a camper spent Memorial Day Weekend 2014 there and we stopped in for a visit. After the first 10 Minutes of being there i realized i have been missing out on what this place had to offer. They have nice fairly level campsites, a nice new playground for the kids, a nice small but adequate game room, clean bathrooms, a very very nice wagon ride every nite, hiking trails, free newer release kids movies each night, all kinds of items to check out like playground balls, board games etc, the cave to explore and hiking trails. You can really tell that the owners are trying very hard and to me i would rather pay and camp somewhere where the owners take pride and trying to improve rather then collecting money and letting things get run down. I think this could be a wonderful campground and area attraction, they just need more ppl to come. If you want to camp and not deal with a Jellystone feel this is def the place!
Our family has been enjoying Eagle Cave every summer for the past 5 years. Our kids love the canoe trip, cave exploration, hiking, mini golf, play area and just enjoying our nightly fire pit with marshmellows and story telling. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND the cabins and enjoy having a super Walmart just a few minutes away. Also, Richland center is only 10-15 minutes away and has stores, places to eat and anything else you may need while away from home.
Caveat: I think Eagle Cave is a great property with a lot of things to do and explore, but I just didn't love my own particular trip and how I experienced it. Therefore, I would recommend Eagle Cave, just not the way I did it.I stayed in the cave overnight with our Boy Scout troop in the winter. It's a fun cave to explore and there seems to be a lot of things to do on the property, though it is a bit of a drive from anywhere. I would strongly recommend planning this as a day trip rather than an overnighter. Sleeping in the cave, while a unique experience, was extremely uncomfortable, and I'm not talking about sleeping on the ground (which I actually enjoy). The long and short of it: imagine sleeping in a room with 300 strangers, where every sound is amplified, with one bathroom located at a distance outside that room, and the room happens to basically be a jungle gym full of kids. By the time I finally fell asleep around 1 AM, I was awoken every 15 minutes by people snoring, people walking past me to go to the bathroom, or kids exploring the cave right next to my head where I slept at my "campsite." Again, the cave is fun, and it can be a great experience, but it's much better served as a day trip where the kids can run around, explore, and then head home for the night.
Attended the overnight camping event with 300 of our closest friends from scouts and other small groups. Freezing weather aside, the cave was fun for the kids. Tons of exploring and dirt so they were happy. I feel however the facilities are not set up to host such large gatherings. Terrible location for bathrooms as it is the single farthest point from the cave entrance. Perhaps the office location (nearest the cave entrance) should be converted to restrooms. Also, maybe having more than 3 stalls would be smart.Activities were planned and that makes for happy kids and parents so no complaints there.Personally I think this is a great half day attraction.
Ive been twice. Once for the cave tour and one for the Haunted cave. Both were excellent! The haunted cave was pretty good but wow they could really turn that into one of the most popular haunted attractions with better props and actors. They should get a local high school drama club to come in and work it! For 5 bucks it was worth it! If they beefed it up, id be willing to pay 20.00 really cool!
We took our Pack for the Overnight Exploratory program. I won't repeat what the Boy Scout reviewer said, as I would be repeating the majority of what he said. However, I will add from a Cub Scout perspective, I was concerned about the younger boys being in the cave and whether they'd be afraid. I was assured there was plenty to do if they didn't want to spend their whole time in the cave and the cave is lit where they'd be sleeping. We had 68 people sign up to go 35 Cub Scouts (boys from age 6-12). No one got scared. Everyone had the best time and rated this the Best Camping Trip EVER! We camp about 4 times per year. From a Mom who grew up in the country and now have Suburban boys. I have to add that I love it when my boys have a real opportunity to get DIRTY and have good 'boy fun'. Climbing around in a cave was a home run for our Pack and the owners are fantastic to work with. I highly recommend this experience and location.
My son's troop visited the first weekend of December 2011. It was about 10 degrees outside but the cave was in the mid-50s and humid. The front of the cave is closed off with a door and the cave is over 1000 feet deep (horizontally that is) and probably 300 scouts could camp inside.I did not spelunk like the boys did, but they got filthy and all stated that they had a great time.We were warned ahead of time that water would be dripping on us all night and to put tarps over our sleeping bags, but we had no problems. We had a bigger problem with condensation on the underside of the tarps.Food is included with the camping and was of decent quality and quantity. Food service was very organized.The owners were very friendly and hospitable.There are compass courses (though not compatible with First Class requirements), geocaching, a campfire at night, and a wagon ride as well. You can also get a guided tour of the cave in the afternoon.There is a game room for when the scouts are bored of spelunking. Additional short order cooking is available between meal times.All in all, a good time and I think the price was reasonable at about $50 a scout for camping plus four meals and a snack and other activities.
