Long Branch is an excellent campground for kayakers and fishermen. Camp host is polite. Most of sites in campground are flat and easily accessible. Bath houses are clean. Some sites have old wooden picnic tables that need to be replaced.

Campground was clean and well maintained. The bath houses could use updates and include ventilation, especially during the summertime when it’s hot. When the showers are being used, it made the bathhouse unbearably muggy and stuffy. Sites are mostly level and in good condition. Water was iron water so use a filter. The location by the caney river was nice. Easy access to paddle, swim or fish. Center hill lake is also very close.

We love long branch. Camp there several times a year. It's always a little cooler there because of the cold water in the caney.

Sites #38 & #1 are both level and have shade. Campground and bathhouses are very clean. Verizon is spotty. Beautiful setting on the Camry Fork River.

Hello, We really love long branch campground it clean and you have a outstanding group of people running it. The only downfall that i see for my part is the wifi is not near stong enough to reach out to the full length of the campground. We live in a place where there has been a lot of crime, we have cameras all over the place they are hooked to my cell phone but in order to look at the cameras means you need to go up next to the office before you get signal enough to watch them. Where as if you can catch them in the act you stand a better chance of catching them. Wifi is our only complaint. Have a good day

This campground is always so clean! The hosts are friendly and knowledgeable about the area. Fishing on the river is almost as fun as watching the fish at the base of the dam! We also enjoyed launching our boat, across the road, on Center Hill Lake.
