Well kept and good space. Sites are nice and quiet. Love the full hookups and the staff is very friendly.could use some gravel to level the space between the parking space and the sitting space and it would keep the site dry. Overall it’s a great place to park the RV.

Salt Springs is exceptionally maintained. The water and sewer hookups are the best we have ever used. Registration was fast and simple. This is one of our favorite parks. We spend time here two times a year.

Great place to get away. Sites are clean and well kept. Bath houses are somewhat dated but very clean. Springs area is clean and also well kept.
