Sandy public beach offering swimming, boat launch access and a pavilion.
Information regarding swimming pools or their temperatures is not available for Rocky Branch Public Use Area, as it is primarily an outdoor recreation area focusing on lake/river access rather than featuring artificial swimming pools.
What are people saying (AI review summary)? This location offers a very challenging yet well-marked trail, though it can be less-trafficked, with some sections having obstructed views and occasional litter. The beach area is noted as excellent for families with young children due to its shallow water, but it closes during the fall season. Conversely, the boat ramp remains open year-round. Despite some minor issues, it is generally regarded as a nice and pretty place, with many visitors having a great time.
Reviews
We start at the boat launch on the trail. The trail was hard and not used a lot but very well marked. Made it to the dam and back to the first parking area you pass coming down to the boat ramp. We walk back down the road instead of finishing the trail. It was getting later then had anticipated we will come back. This is a very challenging trail. Don’t let stop you. You got this.
Great place to take the family. Especially if you have young kids. The beach area is perfect for young swimmers that you don't want going out too deep. My kids had a blast.
Closed in Fall season, beach. Yet boat ramp remains open all year. Nice place. pretty.
Fun short trail. Hiked to the lock overlook but the trees had grown in so thick you could not see anything. Also saw a decent amount of trash along the trail.
We go all the time and had a great time
