Salt Lick Creek campground offers a peaceful and beautiful setting with spacious, well-maintained sites and friendly staff, making it a favorite for many campers. The clean facilities, abundant wildlife, and serene waterfront views enhance the overall experience, perfect for those looking to disconnect. While some reviewers noted issues with shower house cleanliness and limited cell service, the positive aspects, including safety and tranquility, consistently shine through.

This is the 1st time we have stayed at this campground. It was very nice. We did have issues with the water because it leaked at the source and we ended up having to connect with our neighbor to be able to have water at our sight so we wouldn't have a muddy mess at our sight. Our neighbor was my brother-in-law and sister, so I don't know what we would have done if they hadn't been camping with us. We received and email prior to our stay saying the camp ground was closed and I called but no one would answer. I didn't know if just one of the 4 sights I had rented we closed or the entire camp ground. I called recreation.gov and they could not tell me what was going on either. I didn't want to drive 2 hours just to find out I didn't have a spot!! I called multiple times over several days and NO ONE EVERY answered the phone at the # provided for the camp ground. That was very frustrating and poor customer service. I finally got an email the day before we were supposed to leave to say the campground would be open and to disregard any previous message.

We had a great camping trip May 11 thru 15th with our 3 daughters, 3 family of grandkids & great grandkids. We all enjoyed going down to the beach area to picnic & watch the kids swimming in the water. The kids all enjoyed riding bikes & playing corn hole in the field behind our camp sites.
