We were in site 5, the dumpsters were awful anytime we were outside at our site, you should think about moving them away from the campers!

I always have a good time here and this experience was no exception. Good facilities and campsites. The holiday crowd had mostly filtered out by Sunday so it wasn't too crowded. I always have a great time out on the water. Ranger Dillon was exceptionally friendly and helpful during my stay. I greatly appreciate him!

We love camping at Salthouse Branch.
Attendants were nice and friendly, sites were clean and flat. Our only complaint is the cell service is terrible.

Nice stay except for barking dogs. One couple let their dogs bark constantly without doing anything about it. Someone screamed at them and they finally shut them up. I chose not to camp with dogs because of this. I shouldn’t have to listen to someone else’s dog.

Quiet and peaceful place to camp , either as a couple or with the family. Electrical and water hook ups make it so handy in your home away from home!!
