What a wonderful place to camp. The ease of parking, the cleanliness of the entire campground and the friendliness of the camp hosts, from the moment we reached the entrance were all perfect. We have already reserved our next camping trip to Salt Lick Creek. If I had to post something negative, we almost dropped a back tire off the pavement as we navigated around a curve just after leaving the gated area on our way out. With a full size Dually and a 34' camper, we were a bit on the long side.

This was our second stay at Salt Lick and we love it! We booked months in advance to have a spot near the waters edge, which was amazing! We could wake in the morning, make coffee, then step 10ft outside to fish off the bank! We saw several deer roaming the park to graze, large fish in the water (just didn't catch any), and lots of birds. The camp hosts are very friendly and welcoming upon arrival. We will definitely be returning!!

Site required backing up a steep hill. Site listed as 70 feet but only 40 of it was level. Was moved to an emergency over flow site for a week of our 2 week stay. Did not have a site for us the second week. Made arrangements to go somewhere else.

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.
