Great campground! Nice level pads with clean sitting/dining areas next to pads. Very clean bathhouses (could use a larger water heater). It’s the only campground I’ve ever been to where the campground hosts split and store firewood for the campers to use. All of the staff and volunteers that we dealt with were over-the-top helpful and friendly. We are looking forward to our next trip there!

We absolutely loved Deerlick Campground! We stayed in site 35, was probably the best site we have ever had. Extremely friendly staff, even met a park ranger, was super friendly. We highly recommend this place!

Staff was nice. However they put us in a spot that was suppose to be a pull thru but we could barely turn to get in because of the stop sign. When we left we could not turn around to get out. We had to back out on a s curve. It was a nightmare!
It was a horrible experience. Another couple came in and could not get in their spot next to us and had to leave.m, and they had to book for 5 days.
They need to do a better job of assigning rigs to spots they can fit!

Campground is beautifully laid out and well kept. The hosts are very helpful and even supply free firewood for the guests. Deerlick is always a favorite place for our family to camp.
