Salthouse Branch in VA -- Campground & RV Camping in Virginia

Salthouse Branch Campground sits on the steep, wooded shores of the 2,900-acre Philpott Lake in Virginia's Blue Ridge foothills. The park offers 44 utility campsites with water and electric hookups, 46 primitive sites, and a reservable group picnic shelter. On-site facilities include flush toilets, showers, drinking water, a dump station, a swim beach, a boat ramp, a dock, a playground, and an amphitheater. Two multi-use hiking paths—the 4.5-mile Dogwood Glen Trail and the 2.25-mile Laurel Ridge Trail—connect the campground to surrounding parks along the lake.

The road in has not been measured -- unknown, not bad.
