We love the campground and the size of the campsites, and it is one of our favorite places to camp. However, it bothers me to see people taking their animals in the bathroom. The people that clean the sites and bathrooms do a good job. However, some of the campers with animals do not clean up after them and have a tendency to take them in other camp sites to use the bathroom. I have also noticed that more people do not keep their animals on a leash which could be dangerous.

Salt Lick Creek has always been our very favorite place to visit!!! It is so well kept, clean and just all around GREAT!!
Some improvement that we could suggest would be for people visiting to clean up after their pets!!!! Also, people tend
to drive pretty fast around on the campground roads, speed needs to be maintained and stressed alot more!!

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.
