sites order based on water access
40-42-37-38-41-39-36
site 40 is at the end of trail and has wide and easy access to water. a bit on hill and has 180° view. best site in campground. this may be best site even when comparing many other campgrounds. water is about 30 ft away and is good for swimming. besides site 42, all other sites are kinda pointless unless they are friends with site 40 group. no views for other sites. parking lot has 8 places, parallel to each other and about 18 ft long. trail to sites is wide and beautiful.
site 39 right next to trail, lacks privacy. right next to 41 entrance. water access is bad, down a steep hill and a sudden drop that is claimable.
site 41 has ok privacy , water access is bad down steep hill and suddenly even steeper to water.
site 42 big tent area, good access down to water and nice privacy, is most away from trail.
site 38 next to trail. water acces is down a steep hill and has good acces, no climbing needed. water acces is between 38 and 37 seems like it almost belongs to 37.
site 37 at near start lacks privacy. eveyone going to cars or restroom will walk parallel to campsite and very near.
site 36 near trail near road, no water access, water is down a steep hill and doesn't look like anyone bothered ever to go down because of how it looks like

I stay here every year for Memorial Day and love it. It's a wonderful campground with some of the best sunsets you'll ever see. The only word of caution is in the new bathhouse. The floors are super slick when wet and a few people have fallen - so I recommend wearing shower shoes with good soles if you don't already.

Woodring is my favorite campground! Even though they don't have full hookups/sewage I still love it here.

We were the only tent campers and had the entire section to ourselves. Very peaceful, beautiful, and serene. The hosts came to check on us after a storm and were very friendly. I have camped and rv’d here several times and I will continue. Very nice facilities and they are up kept very well.

The campground hosts were the best EVER! We have camped at Woodring Branch for years and the hosts this year were the best.
We do wish the campground stayed open longer. The camping and fishing at Carters Lake is ideal for a year round experience.

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.
