We have been to this location a couple of times, and we like it. The sites are very close together, but everyone is always so nice.

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!
@DebraR7956372 · Camped on Jun 22, 2024 at Campsite #5
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!
@RobertM1452522 · Camped on Jun 7, 2024 at Campsite #6
RV sites 1-18 have little to no shade and are very close together. The dump station is at the top of the hill in the tent area by the bathhouse and hard to get back to the exit as you have to go down to the beach to make a U-turn. There are very steep grades in that area of the campground.

Great spot
@MikeE418600243 · Camped on May 23, 2024 at Campsite #4
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.
@RalphS4100274 · Camped on May 7, 2024 at Campsite #42
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!!
@JamesC5011896 · Camped on Apr 30, 2024 at Campsite #22
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 shouldnt have to listen to someone elses dog.

Great camping experience!
@JamesR5751753 · Camped on Apr 6, 2024 at Campsite #25
This is a very well-maintained, beautiful and well-managed campground.

@MaryH1910665 · Camped on Oct 27, 2023 at Campsite #67
I love staying at salthouse branch when I attend the Blue Ridge Folklife Festival at Ferrum College. It is very well maintained and kept. Just needs better maps or more trail maps for the reservoir trails.
@LadonnaW735967 · Camped on Oct 25, 2023 at Campsite #11
Great park, not very many spots for big rigs. We were in #11, 40 ft 5th wheel and fit fine. 2 boat ramps, great kayaking. Camp Host were very nice, would visit again.
@RichardG179702 · Camped on Oct 13, 2023 at Campsite #26
Great campground! We will be going back there. Clean bath house! Friendly people.
@LowellP20CD8D6 · Camped on Oct 9, 2023 at Campsite #4
Great campground. Quiet and very helpful attendants. Very Clean restrooms/showers.
@ShaunaB5769367 · Camped on Sep 26, 2023 at Campsite #12
Quite during the week, popular on the weekends, nice camp hosts. Didnt attempt to use rv dump it seems to be setup for shorter rvs and exiting the rv dump station area wouldve been difficult.
@LowellP20CD8D6 · Camped on Sep 4, 2023 at Campsite #3
Wonderful time. Great host. Quiet.
@BradW2662885 · Camped on Aug 30, 2023 at Campsite #22
Found a 6 foot black snake in the mens bathroom. But the main problem was barking dogs all weekend.
@WilliamW688008 · Camped on Aug 13, 2023 at Campsite #93
Always enjoy Salthouse, always clean and secure. Have met some real nice people from out of state and local. I would recommend Salthouse Branch campground to everyone to try at least once. Also, parked there when I camped on Deer Island. Very nice

Thanks to all our Supporting Members

@BranJen - Santa Clara, CA

I wanted to thank you for this site and especially for the notifications feature. Thanks to your site and my subscription I was able to book a campsite I've been annoyingly trying to book for 5 years unsuccessfully. So thank you.

@Wondering - Oregon

Wow! Woke up this morning to a notification that a favorite had opened at Paulina, and when I went to check, it was there. This membership just paid for itself in the first 24 hours I owned it. Couldn't take the site it conflicted with a trip already set, but it truly was there. Thanks Tons.

@CarlaLThompson - Colorado

I just love this site and I tell everyone about it! It's so competitive to secure desired campsites and the alerts really help track when sites free up. The best part of this story is our alert notified a cancellation the next day!!!!!! Just incredible!!!
