Beautiful area! Angie was super friendly and helpful. Sites are nice and roomy. Only complaint is vault toilet at C and D was disgusting the entire week. Main bathrooms up front were nice.

We had a great weekend . This campground is kept in the best conditions grounds and bathrooms are always so clean. Management at lakes takes care that each family has what they need and all you have to do is let them know if you need anything.

Our stay at Laurel Branch was most pleasant as has been our experience at all of the Army Corp Campgrounds we have ever stayed at. The Woman who checked us in was very pleasant and helpful. The only issue keeping my review from being excellent was the condition of the shower house. Overall it was perfectly acceptable with exception of the missing mirrors in the shower room I used. But we have gotten used to such a high level of cleanliness and maintenance of the parks as a rule it was just a little below the best

Very clean, someone came through and picked up all small pieces of paper left, fire pits were cleaned out. Cleaner than other campgrounds we have visited. Showers and bathrooms were also clean, one just needs a mirror over the sink. It was gone.
