Deer Lick Creek is our very Favorite place to camp. There is so much room between campsites that you can have your own privacy if you need it. It is beautiful and the cleanest of any campground you will every go to. As soon as someone leave they are cleaning the pads for the next camper to come in. The Host are very nice, friendly and attentive. The bath house is always clean and spacious. There are lots of walking trails and trails for riding bikes. Lots of trees with shade in the summer. We look forward to camping there 7 times every fall.

Great campground. We camp here a lot, especially during fall and football season. Very friendly and helpful staff, do a great job in keeping the park clean and pleasant, making for a great camping weekend. Views, hiking trails, and ramps to the water are great. Again, great campground!

We tent camped and the sites were very large with plenty of space between sites. Very well laid out.

I love Deerlick! Keith and Lori are some of the nicest people I have ever dealt with since I started camping many years ago. The sites are always clean and there's always a good supply of firewood during the colder months.

We were there for a Cub Scout campout. They had free cut firewood, which came in handy. The paved trails were nice. The bathrooms could use some updating.

Our favorite place to camp. Friendly hosts and area kept clean and manicured. Camp sites are large with concrete pads. Close to Tuscaloosa to visit on a daily outing with fine restaurants and shopping.
