Excellent campground. My only complaint is they need to clean and stock the bathrooms that are closest to the swim beach more often. We got there Sunday afternoon and they were on the rough side to say the least.

The grill tables are falling down, campers will use the picnic tables for the grills and the fire pits are all burned out, I wish I could attach pictures

As always we had a great time at Laurel Branch. Mrs. Angie is an excellent attendant, friendly, polite, and always willing to address camper’s issues. Cleaning staff try to maintain the bathhouse and latrine very well. Would recommend daily cleaning during busy weekends. Plenty of local resources available for any items needed during your stay.

The campsite we chose was clean ,level and well maintained. We had a great view of the lake and the weather for the most part was moderate so that was nice. I was happy to see that the water pressure was at a perfect level. Some campgrounds think they have to have the water pressure high enough blow the seals out of a campers water system to be adequate. I do wish that the showers were in better repair. Out of four showers two were usable. One shower had the control handle completely gone and another only put out a dribble of water. I had to wait for one that was acceptable, usable.
I would still visit again and recommend it to our friends .
