We love camping at Salt Lick. We had so many wildlife visitors to our campsite. We had a momma duck and her 6 babies, a frog, a blue heron, another water bird of some sort, a little water snake and a terrapin that went to the water to get a drink. Only downside is how fast the boats go and some seem to purposely see how close they can get the the people fishing from the bank. Some of them speed up when they see you fishing from the bank.

Salt Lick Campground is one of our families favorite camping sites!!! I just wish they could slow people down in side the campgrounds, we witness people going pretty fast with children riding bicycles and people and dogs being very active.

My family enjoys camping at this campground every summer. The camping sites are large and most of them have some type of shade. The sunrises and sunsets are lovely.

Policies & Rules
Cancellation policy
- Reservation fees are non-refundable. For campsites, cabins, lookouts, yurts, group sites, and similar stays, we charge a reservation service fee of $8.
- Standard cancellations usually have a $10 cancellation fee. Customers can generally cancel before the check-in date online.
- Late cancellation rules differ by stay type.
- Individual campsites: cancelling after 12:00am local time the day before arrival usually means a $10 cancellation fee plus forfeiting the first night's fee.
- Cabins, lookouts, and yurts: cancelling less than 14 days before arrival usually means a $10 cancellation fee plus forfeiting the first night's fee.
- One-night reservations: a late cancellation usually forfeits the full amount paid, up to the total original reservation cost.
- Modifications are allowed before the cut-off window, but fees depend on the change. Changing to dates completely outside the original reservation dates may trigger a $10 change fee. Extending or shortening a stay that still includes original dates usually has no change fee, though refunds may depend on timing and facility rules. Switching to the same type of campsite for the same dates usually has no change fee, but price differences are charged or refunded.
- Early departures may or may not be refunded. At certain facilities, partial refunds may be possible if staff can mark the site available for other visitors. No refund is given for a night if the early departure is requested after that day's check-out time.
- Security deposits are separate. Security deposits may be refunded to the original payment method if the facility is left in acceptable condition, as determined by the property.
