We always love camping at laural branch. It is clean and quiet. The park attendant Angie is very helpful when we have questions about the campground. She is always around and available if we need something.

We are already planning our next trip back. This place was absolutely gorgeous. We got a tent site right next to the rocks leading to the river and were able to walk right down and wade along the rocks. We went swimming and it was perfect since we were in a no wake zone! The campsite was clean, the bathrooms were nothing fancy at all, but had clean enough flushing toilets, which was just fine for us! The lady at the front check in was incredibly sweet and couldn’t have been more welcoming and helpful! We were just amazed!

Nice area near the lake. The public showers need some attention & cleaned more frequently. More hooks or shelf would be helpful for your towels, clothes & toiletries. The staff when checking in was very friendly, welcoming & helpful. Campsites need new gravel dressings to fill in the bare dirt spots & fire rings cleaned out between guests.
