Very quiet and restrooms were clean. All the outside space was manicured and added to the beauty of the lake.

This place is heaven. I can see why people book sites 6 months in advance. We did the same thing! We were in Loop A, site 45, which is the best site in that loop, for sure. But while there, we coveted the lake front sites of Loop C. So we immediately booked a lake front C site for six months from now. It's a quiet, perfect place to be still, to move, to be inspired, to rest, to walk, to think. We learned so much about the geography, history, engineering, mythology of the place. Not one thing needs to be improved here. Perfect.

The attendant when we checked in was very friendly and helpful. We actually got a better site because someone canceled. The length of the site was great. The width was a little narrow. Love the area with the picnic tape on fire pit. Had a lot of room. Bathroom shower was clean. Attendant was very nice. Enjoyed the week and looking forward to going back. Thank you 😁

We love COE campgrounds. Typically it is because of the large sites and wide spacing between sites, However, neither of those things were at this park, because it is a small park that sits out on a very small point, surrounded by water. They did a nice job with the sites they have. Even interior campsites have a water view. So affordable! We did not use any of the facilities at this park, so can't speak to those.

Goosepoint is one of my favorite all-time campgrounds. You made a bunch of awesome campers made friends over the years camping there and we all bring the kids and come back to camp every summer before school starts. It’s totally awesome. Make your reservation here and thank me later cause I know you will enjoy it. The park Rangers are awesome.
