The campground was very clean however not being able to park your boat close to your campsite made for very irritating and long walks to our boat.

Our visit to Salt Springs was excellent. The springs themselves were beautiful. The water was quite chilly, at least until you fully emerse youself. Would go here again. It is a quite, yet well maintained campground.
