We camp at Long Branch 8-10 times a year. Great camp ground with great attendants.

This is a lovely campground situated right on the river. The hosts were very friendly and helpful. Even though it seemed to be full on Friday night, the campground was quiet. The pads were in good shape and seemed to be level. Nice spacing between spots. On this particular weekend, the road across the dam was closed for construction so getting around the area was problematic.

Sites are great, plenty of room for large campers and multiple vehicles. Had a great time there and plan to come back again.

We love the peaceful atmosphere at Long Branch. It was a great weekend for a kayak trip down the Caney! The Host was very friendly and available to assist any way needed.

Long Branch is an excellent campground right on the Caney Fork River. Nice spots, electric and water at each site with 2 bath houses on location.

The campground is flat which is great for a toddler learning to ride a bicycle. The campsites were extremely spacious which is really nice when camping with a group. We had the best experience and will definitely be back!

Camp Hosts were very helpful. Nice park, though no sewer hookup. Do NOT depend on GPS when entering in the dark. Entrance is before GPS suggestion (near dam).

Nice enough for one nite. Sites were close to each other. Not much shade.Minimal cell service. Bathrooms and showers were clean.

A not very large campground but lovely location - been here many times. Well maintained or they have sites blocked that need work. Love the mist off the river.
@VernonBA3ADA23 · Camped on Sep 25, 2025 at Campsite #18
Always a nice stay. Bathrooms are spotless. Campsites large.

Very nice and clean campground.
@JamesH5225020 · Camped on Sep 14, 2025 at Campsite #25
The park is really nice and quiet. Big sites and right on the river. The only two things that we didn't like was the grass was too tall and a lot of the limbs along the road needed to be trimmed to keep them from dragging on your RV.
@WalterS119040B · Camped on Sep 14, 2025 at Campsite #37
friendly host , clean well kept facilities.
@CraigB4500034 · Camped on Sep 13, 2025 at Campsite #58

@BobbyC5890531 · Camped on Sep 8, 2025 at Campsite #1
Very quiet and loved to watch the river. Would be better if the under brush cleared

The campground has large level campsites with easy access in and out without work of hitting trees or obstacles. I have stayed at three different sites and and my last stay was on site 25. Although it is a great site there was an oder of sewage from time to time. After staying there I went back and read some reviews and apparently this has been an issue for some time. This is the only place I have noticed this issue. Other than that the bathhouse's, campsites and the campground are very well maintained. Clean, quiet, friendly hosts, easy access, swingsets for children, dog friendly, picnic area and easy access to the river. I would not recommend using the campgrounds boat ramp! It's very steep, and with the rise and fall of the river during turbine generation, it is extremely slick! I would suggest going across the dam and using the boatramp directly across the river from the campground. Plenty of parking for cars and vehicles with trailers. Great fishing, Great place for kayaks and Caney Fork Outdoors and market are right down the road.

Small little COE with great views below the hydro/electric dam. Sites were flat and easy to access. Staff were courteous and friendly.
@MarvinF1209065 · Camped on Aug 24, 2025 at Campsite #22
Site 22 was great, plenty of room for 30 camper pull vehicle plus boat and additional vehicle. Site was also had good shade and good view of the river. Campground was clean and quiet. Boat ramp to lake close by. Definitely plan on going again.
@ClarenceT5AC67 · Camped on Aug 23, 2025 at Campsite #6
We go every year to kayak. Love the campgrounds!
@JamesM3655871 · Camped on Aug 10, 2025 at Campsite #24

I just used PerfectCamp.com to book six consecutive August nights at the most popular campsite in one of the most popular campgrounds in Humboldt Redwoods State Park in California. That is not anything I could have accomplished anywhere else with the ease I did here! Thank you, PerfectCamp! I LOVE this site! You will find me on several other camping sites but the design, format, functionality, and personality of this the best. It’s fresh and clean.

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!!!
