Deerlick Creek was our first outing in our new travel trailer. We were new to camping with a new camper. Everything turned out great. We were greeted by the very gracious hosts who made check-in a breeze, and then by 8-10 deer grazing on the side of the road. We had a pull through site so I didn't have to test my trailer backing skills. The site had a deck on a bluff overlooking Deerlick Creek and was absolutely beautiful. We felt like we were sitting in a tree house overlooking the river. The paths and trails were great, and we were close to other fun hiking trails. The only problem with the campground was that water access for kayaking, boating and fishing was very limited to non-existent.

The camp host was the most helpful and enjoyable person, and gave us all the information we needed to enjoy our time at Deerlick. We had the most gorgeous site and enjoyed the quiet privacy that it provided. It was our first trip and cannot wait to go back!
