Elliott Branch Campground

Elliott Branch is located on Little Bear Reservoir, which has a surface area of 1,560 acres. Little Bear is an outdoor enthusiasts’ paradise. From picnicking to fishing to camping, Little Bear has it all. It’s ideal for families and friends looking for lots of fun in the sun and water recreation. The campground has 38 shaded campsites, one of which is handicapped assessable. All campsites are close or directly on the water. Each site has water and 30 or 50-AMP electrical hookups, with a central dumping station. Elliott Branch has one of our most popular public swimming areas due to its white sandy beach, picnic tables, public restroom, and generous parking area. The camp store carries basic grocery items, snacks, drinks, camping and swimming supplies, along with ice and live fishing bait. Other amenities at the campground include a boat ramp, a bathhouse, picnic tables, a playground, a basketball goal, and a pavilion that is available to rent.
