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.

It is one of our favorite campgrounds. The host is great. One problem is people who believe that their dog(s) are so well trained that they can ignore the on-a-leash rule. This can be a problem when they are distracted and their dog (sometimes a big Rottweiler or Pit Bull) decides to take a run at our 11 lb dog and us as we walk around the cg. So far we have escaped, but once on this trip their dog nearly got to us before the owner managed to stop it. Frightening!

Quiet place to relax. Grandchildren enjoyed the beach and playground.

Beautiful creek in the hills. Not a bad site. Great for fishing. Great picnic, park, and swimming area. No cell phone service.

This is a well kept campground spacious sites. It’s next to being “off grid” without being off grid. don’t expect to have phone and internet service as it’s really backwoods. It has a nice beach area for swimming too. There are a lot of mature trees so many sites have shade which also block satellite service should you have Dish or Directv. with portable dishes you can often get a signal.
We have been coming to this campground for a number of years and it’s always been neat and clean when we arrived.

This is one of our favorite campgrounds. The cg host is great. One thing could make it better - hiking trails. The only real place to walk is the road through the cg. But there are a couple of problems: for some reason at this particular cg people drive around and around for no apparent purpose other than to drive through the cg (this would be fine except that they go round and round and round and you are constantly trying to find a place to get out of their way). The other problem which is not only a problem here but other cg s too. Big vicious dog breeds - Rottweilers, put bulls, etc that are not always on a leash. The owners believe they are so well trained that they let them loose at their site. They are threatening and could be dangerous. Some camp sites have as many as three of these dogs on one site!
