Goose Point has always been our favorite place to camp. We have not been since our kids grew up….now we’re back. Driving the 5 miles in was without a doubt a very joyful ride. The campground is so well maintained. Philpott Lake is stunning. Can’t wait to return in October for 10 nights.

Very nice campground, a little hard to get into and have to reserve early because people play as it’s known as the Goosepoint game and get more time than they need then no one else has a real chance. But othersize t it’s very nice.

We have been here several times and we love it. It's so beautiful there and the sites are always clean and well kept. The bath houses are always clean and well stocked. The staff is wonderful. We will be back.

Beautiful campground. Last year stayed up top which we enjoyed, but this spring stayed lakeside which was very nice. Went to Autumn Creek Vineyards about 45 minutes away, great wine and nice grounds. Went to Papa's Pizza both times we stayed at the campground and they have very good food. Also, the Railway Cafe was a nice spot for lunch. Enjoyed exploring the area.

Love camping at Goose Point. The only thing that would make it better is full hookups.

The site was well run and the rangers were exceptional. However, the sites were WAY too close.

Staff was extremely polite. The campground is very pretty. Fairy stone state park was near by but we didn’t go there. The area is very pretty as is Philpott lake. You can find things to do and sites to see but we just stayed put and enjoyed meeting people. The only down side is the dump station. Staying in loop A you must navigate two sharp turns to get to dump station. Also there are narrow roads with lots of hills to get there but I thought it was worth it. Happy camping!
