The campsite is great! I love the mature trees. The campsites are strategically located and really give a feeling of community. Very quiet and removed from society.
There’s a scavenger hunt for children that’s pretty cool. The playground area is a little dated but the kids will have fun. It’s a little pricey and they charge extra if you bring past two kids, one time extra kids of $20 each. Kinda high, right? That’s like a while other camping day!
There’s free WiFi but it’s not very reliable. They need to call a network engineer to look at it and resolve whatever the issue is.
Gravel throughout the property. Not thrilled about it.
The staff is great!

Been wanting to go for sometime and with fall moving in we decided OBC for our last camp of the season. We are so happy we visited the campground as it was full of friendly people and an abundance of things to do for the kids while the adults relaxed. Between the playground, fishing and playing with friends our kids passed out every night. Had everything we needed including an 30 AMP extender. We’ll be sure to visit early next season.

We really enjoyed our stay. Arrived after hours and there was no hassle finding our spot. There is a really peaceful walking trail through the woods, and the long driveway and thick forest makes one feel very secluded. Aside from the laundry and "game room" in need of some updates, overall we were very happy. The staff was friendly and the campground was overall very clean. We'd stay here again!

Easy access off of I-71, well maintained drive through the woods from the County road. Only issue is some sites do become a swamp after heavy rains, however, the camp tries to mitigate it as soon as it happens (We were there in August.). Reservation check-In after hours is no problem as your site is posted on outside bulletin board. CG does have some occupied seasonal campers & park models but are maintained well. Good playground area & recreation building, very nice & clean pool. Nice hiking trails through the woods. Clean laundry, showers & restrooms, however, the showers-restrooms could use an upgrade. Staff is very helpful. Campground is surrounded by farmland and provisioning is in Lebanon about 10mi NW. Lebanon has a Super Walmart. Cincinnati is about 35mi South, Dayton is 30mi North - lots to see and do if you choose to. Cesar Creek State Park with USACE dam and nature facilities is 10mi North and has lots of hiking trail opportunities.

We were headed towards the TT campground 7 miles further down the road, but when we passed Olive Branch, we decided to give them a call. They are just off the highway, but far enough away (an insulated enough by trees) that you don't hear the whir unless you listen very carefully.
Olive Branch is very well maintained, with staff working al day to keep the place clean, manicured, and in tip-top condition. We arrived on a Tuesday and left on a Friday, so we can't speak to the 'weekend crowd', but noted that the mid-May 'weekday crowd' was quiet. The park had many rigs - many appeared to be 'permanent summer home' types - but many were still in 'storage mode'. Those that we occupied appeared to house folks that worked during the day. There were a flux of folks leaving the grounds ~8am, and returning ~6pm along the non-dusty stone roads.
Each site is portioned similar to most other family campgrounds - you get about 25-30' of room between your neighbors. We were placed in a spot which was clearly previously occupied by a long-termer - we had a very nicely stone-paver patio with a brick fire pit! Not all spots were equal though - some only have 'the basics'. That is: full-hookups (50A, sewer, H20), a fire-pit, a picnic table, and a grassy area to call your own.
Sites are mostly level- you can work with them.
The campground also offers a nice pool (seasonal), playground, laundry room, a propane filling station, a camp store, public fishing pond, and public restrooms.
A few miles down the road there is an awesome paved running trail (Little Miami trail) that goes for 73 miles. Canoe/Kayaks rentals are also available.
Didn't use the CG WiFi, but it is available. We had 2 bars Verizon without a booster and were fine for all internet activities (video streaming was fine).

We chose this park because it was right distance as we moved west. It is also very easy to access but there is no highway noise. The park is so quiet and dark at night. The park is very well maintained. The office personal are so friendly and welcoming. There is a mix of pull-through sites and back ins. Roads and sites are gravel. Each site has a picnic table and fire ring.
There is a lot of shade with all the large trees, but we did connect with our satellite. The park has a pool, fishing pond, and playground. Seasonal and monthly sites are separate from the short term sites. The park isn't far from King Island Amusement/Water Parks. Sites are all FHU. There is one cabin available. Verizon signal is fair and the lady in the office said AT&T was nonexistent. There is no cable but you can get over the air TV. The WiFi is okay except at night when heavily used. We stayed here in a motorhome.

This was our second stay here. We are local and like to get away from it all sometimes and I could see Olive Branch becoming a regular spot. Friendly staff, clean and quiet park and a reasonable fee. Who could want more?
