#8 is one of my favorite spots. For every trip we take it seems we always end up here several times a year. The views on 1-8 are great and the other sites are great too, these are just the best.

What a great park. Some sites on the water, some with a creek. Lovely trees, wonderful hosts. However, we did have a major issue that I hope the management will rectify. We have never had an occurrence where our reserved and paid for sight was occupied upon our arrival, with the current occupant no where to be seen. Very frustrating. We got our pick of another site, but that's it. We didn't let it ruin our experience however.

If you want a great quite place off the beaten path, this is the place to visit. The hosts of this park are the friendliest people you will ever meet. Make sure to bring all your camping needs , it’s about 30 minute drive to nearest store and one hour drive to town. Camp site very nice paved. Playground, sandy beach swimming. You will not have any cell service here, plan on plenty of pease and quiet, fishing, biking, swimming, hiking, and wildlife watching. We will definitely visit this park again

Lovely campground. Peaceful and facilities were clean. Only negative is the litter in the lake and on the country roads outside the park.

We had a great weekend at Burchfield Branch. The camp hosts were super friendly and the sites are all amazing. The restroom facilities were heated and clean. The only issue for some is there is zero cell service. We will definitely be back!!!

We love camping here. We live in Bham and the drive only takes us about 45 minutes. We love the privacy we have when we go. It's like know one else is there. And our 4 legged children love it as well. We go as often as we possibly can. It's our home away from home. 😊

Great place to camp. The cap hosts are great and helpful. Nice playgrounds for the kids and clean bath houses. Also be ready for no cell phone service but if your camping who needs a phone.
