'A World of Regret Awaits You': Kentucky National Park Posts Hilarious Response To Bad Reviews

August 28, 2024

"A world of regret awaits you at Mammoth Cave!"

Mammoth Cave National Park, known for being the world’s longest cave system, recently found itself in an unexpected spotlight after being ranked the third most disappointing tourist attraction in the U.S. by a new study.

The study scoured reviews on sites like Google and Tripadvisor, analyzing 1- to 3-star ratings and searching for words like "disappointment" and "subpar" to determine which attractions left visitors underwhelmed.

But instead of shying away from the critique, Mammoth Cave National Park took the ranking in stride—and their hilarious response has since gone viral.

This is what they wrote on Facebook:

Come experience what has disappointed millions of people for over 225 years!

Mammoth Cave National Park recently rated as one of the “most disappointing U.S. tourist attractions”! While we think the world’s longest cave system and over 4,000 years of human history is AMAZING, others find that the cave is “very dark” and there is “nothing cool” here to see.

If you would like to experience the disappointment of Mammoth Cave, visit our website and choose from one of our many activities that will leave you unfulfilled! You can be disappointed by a “dry hole with very few stalagmites and stalactites” or discover nothing “other than trees” on over 80+ miles of hiking, biking, horseback riding, and water trails. (Fair warning – there are bugs in the outdoors, cellular phone service is spotty, and there are stairs on some of our cave tours.)

A world of regret awaits you at Mammoth Cave!

The park's playful response has garnered widespread attention and praise, turning what could have been a negative label into a brilliant marketing move.

Some of the top comments:

"Now THAT is marketing! 🤣 🤣 I love hating things!"

"Sounds totally lame. I’m in!"

"Here to congratulate you on winning the Kentucky Cave Wars AND the internet!"
