Directions

The Salt Lick BBQ Pavilion & Camp Ben McCulloch are located in Driftwood, Texas, on the southern edge of Austin. The Salt Lick BBQ Pavilion is adjacent to the nationally recognized Salt Lick Barbeque restaurant. Across the street from the restaurant is the historic & scenic Camp Ben McCulloch campground, which offers plenty of room for camping & parking near your campsite. Although within walking distance, a convenient shuttle is provided for your safety & comfort.
The Salt Lick & Camp Ben McCulloch are within a few minutes of Austin, located 11 miles south of Highway 290 West on Farm Road 1826. From I-35, take Loop 4 to downtown Buda. Head west on Farm Road 967 for 11 miles, then turn left on Farm Road 1826 for 1/2 mile — Camp Ben McCulloch is on the left & the Pavilion festival site is just past the Salt Lick on the right.
