Stayed in Tent site 2. Was right on top of the outdoor kitchen which was great. Site was nice. We brought our own firepit. Amazing star watching. Saw tons of satellites and a couple shooting stars. Only complaint is that my wife and daughter hated the restroom. So if you’re not feeling adventurous you may want to bring a camp toilet. For the price I didn’t care. I will definitely go back. Great communication from the host. Beautiful area.

This is one of the most beautiful smaller campgrounds I've been to especially for the area. Very clean and well maintained, highly accommodating and Caleb the host was very helpful and a great communicator even when I probably messaged him more than I should. We will be back for sure

The land was so beautiful and peaceful. We stayed at “The Ledge” and had amazing views and sounds (waterfalls, birds, and tigers)! Everything was well-kept. The shower was nice and got hot! The wood-fire bundle was also worth it. Thank you for the great place to stay!

Hidden Branch was a great place to spend a few days relaxing. A little disappointing to know there weren't any fish in the pond..lol
Internet was great and the shower was nice and hot.

Very private and a good camping experience with outhouse and shower available. We got there at night and it was difficult to find the bathroom so a map would have been helpful. Otherwise there was a trail and pond that was very pretty.

Awesome experience from start to finish. It was a bit cold and rainy but that all faded to the background as we explored the property and got settled. This is a very special place and we will be back.
Special shoutout to Zed. He made my car battery dying a fun adventure and I can honestly say I’ve never said that in my life. A million thank yous!

I was in tent space 2. We slept in the back of our truck with a camper shell, but if I'd had a tent, I don't think that particular tent space would have been large enough. The other tent spaces were bigger, just not this one. Other than that, we had a great relaxing time. We were the only campers there, so we had the run of the place. The shower system, pit toilet, and outdoor kitchen were so cool. The place was beautiful. The pond had a fountain on a timer so we sat by the fire overlooking the pond, listening to the fountain, frogs, and crickets. We saw several deer running through the campground and woke up to seeing a fox across the pond and a pileated woodpecker. They even had WiFi and 2 TVs, but I didn't watch them. It's not a state funded campground so the amenities were homemade, but I thought they were very smartly engineered and super cool. The outdoor kitchen even had a toaster over and a microwave. I will definitely go back.
