We love staying at Salthouse Branch. The campsites are large, the access to the beach /water is easy. We love that we are able to put our boat in and that their is designated parking for trailers (not on your site). Make sure to cruise around the lake and find the waterfall! The park rangers are knowledgeable and kind. Bathrooms are well kept. Would absolutely recommend. We plan to continue to visit 1-2x a year.

Nice camping spot very close to the lake good for fishing and kayaking not much mosquitos.
No signal
They only have a few bathrooms and showers
And its not always clean not well maintained very busy
Sometimes they lower the water of the lake to prevent the trout from dying

Salthouse Branch is a great place to camp, et. However, our last trip (Labor Day 2022) the water level was way down from July 4th and the swimming area boundary floats were almost beached. So there were several people swimming past that, again water was low) but they were out to far to the point that if someone needed to come ashore on watercraft, they might not have seen a swimmer and a bad day for all woukd have been. Thankfully no one was injured. My point to all that is; the boundary floats should have been reset so as to ensure safety measures were on point. Common sense mist have, unfortunately some people just lack it or dont have the time (lol) to use it. Again thankfully no one was injured.
