This is our third time this year at Salt House Branch. We enjoy our times there. They keep the bath houses clean and blow the falling leaves off the roads (walking trails). The Hosts are always helpful and the store that is almost on the property makes it nice to refil the propane tanks. If you want to get away from the grind itt your place. No TV signal for us but enough cell signal to use the phone. Already looking forward to kayaking there next year.

When we arrived around 9pm (dark & just before gates close), we were informed that our 38' rig probably wouldn't fit in the site chosen (a no-hookup site). He was able to accommodate in a full hook-up stand RV parking-lot site for one night (but I had registered for 2). We paid the additional for the hook-up (actually got a refund of partial from our 2 night reservation), parked and settled in. The next day we walked to my original choice and decided we could get in (it would be tight & some "drivers" probably couldn't do it). We then went & asked for that site for our second night, again paid the difference & moved our rig.
The attendant was being cautious & had indicated that smaller rigs than mine had bottomed out in my original spot. I don't fault him for this. Better information on the web-site would be beneficial - although keeping track of each particular site nation-wide is also no small task.
All in all the location is amazing. The people were friendly & very helpful. We will go back & probably stay in the no-hookup location (boondocking in a big rig is why I go it). The RV full hook-up lot is nice, but its just a nice RV lot.

Wonderful campground with friendly staff and clean heated restrooms with showers. Close to the Blue Ridge Parkway. We've stayed here 3 times and have never been disappointed.
