Rain squashed most of our outdoor plans. The campground is well kept and all the spots seemed nice and wide. Early mornings on the lake were so nice. Park host was so sweet

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.

One of my favorite campgrounds. Love this place. Here are a few things to help you plan your visit....
Gated entry so it's nice knowing riff raff is t hanging out. Gate staff was friendly, bring them a treat, they are stuck in that booth all day.
Tent sites are huge and so nice. Clean and spacious. Water and electric hookups. So e sites are right in the water!!
No cell service at this park so be prepared for that. They do have wifi around the boat dock so that will help get your fix if needed.
Bathhouses are nice. Bring an over the door hook for your clothing. The showers are kind of a wreck. Nowhere to put your belongings and the water sprays everywhere and all over the floor. But hey, I am blessed to get a hot shower while camping.
Fishing, swimming, basketball, volleyball and hanging out are all available.
If you need to go shopping the closest store is Dollar General in Gainsboro (about 20 minutes away)
Again, love this place and we will be back!!!!

Everyone has to have lunch at Martin's gas station. Loved our camp site right on the water.

We camped on Site 111. It was perfect! Close to the bath house and a feeling of being in the woods all day.

when we go camping we just want to be by ourselves and left alone. that is exactly what we have at salt lick.great large shady sites.quiet atmosphere.no hassles.the only improvement would be an earlier check-in.

Camping was great. The bathhouses need benches some where to put your clothes and bathing supplies.

Only thing missing is reliable cell signal or Wi-Fi. It is nice that you added a couple of stations at the bath houses but certainly a reliable cell signal for us streamers and folks that must stay connected would really increase these ratings to 5 stars +!
