Long Branch Falls is located at the R.D.Bailey Lake.  From US 52, turn onto WV 97 and drive for 2.1 miles and turn left onto Big Branch/Long Branch Rd. (CR 9/1).  Follow for 1.1 miles to a pull off/parking area loop on your left just past Coal Mountain Rd.  You will be able to see the waterfall off to the left from this overlook, however a better view can be achieved from across the lake or from a water craft.  I don't know how the below image was attained, but it's the best one I've seen.  Thanks to Stacy Cline for this shot.
