My friend and I enjoy the walking trails in the woods, although last time we went, there was soo much dog poop left right in the middle of the trail. However, the woods and marsh areas are so calming and peaceful. I love listening to the birds and frogs. We even saw a couple deer.

Pricing is ridiculous if you are tent or car camping. We had two cars that people were sleeping in plus one tent. We were required to pay for two sites along with one overflow tent. When we inquired on the phone previously we were told one site would be all we needed. The site across from us had two vehicles and a bunch of people sleeping in one big camper. I'm sure that counts as a single "camping unit". Apparently they also charge you to use the shower.

Over priced for flooded sites . Stayed Aug Sept and 1st week October when we were leaving the belts on our 79 camper broke. We told camp staff they charged me another night while we tried to repair it. Even tho it wasnt plugged in and we didn't stay in it. Went back The next day to try again and were harassed immediately by a very rude staff member accusing us of abandoning it even tho we told them exactly what was going on. She then threatened to have upper management get involved. Called aaa and went to pay only to find it closed. OVER 40 DOLLARS?!?

Great location with boat launches, shore fishing, and option for big campsites. Beautiful! Mosquitoes... dont plan to be out at a campfire at night. Thsi was the only really problem. Deet, fogger, candles and thermacell didn't work...real bummer!! That is nature.

Goose Island Campground is a surprisingly nice place with plenty to do. The campsites are pretty close together, so be aware that it can get packed. There's a beach, hiking trails through the woods, and a ranger station with a small convenience store that's open from 9 am to 9 pm. The showers are clean and cost a quarter for four minutes. Overall, I recommend checking it out.

Upon arrival we found the sight we reserved completely swamped and uninhabitable. We drove back to the check in point where we found out that it had been marked as “wet” but they forgot to let us know. We were given another sight which we went to and started setting up (an hour later) and moments later while we were unloading I was told I needed to move my vehicle because campers were complaining that they couldn’t get by. However, two motor homes had just went by without an issue. I feel this was simply the hostesses way of passing the buck. The wood they sell is simply what they hack off the edges of the tree during debarking and it is rather thin. The showers are pay showers which is ridiculous after paying what we paid to camp there. The bathrooms are simply a breeding ground for mosquitoes. No paper towels or hand dryers. The place caters to Motor Homes and Trailers. They treat tent campers as second rate citizens. The sites are small and packed right so you can expect to be near your neighbors and hear them quite well. This place is nothing like it was years ago and I will never return.

Nice and clean campground including the bathrooms and showers. Showers are pay to shower.

I had such a relaxing two days of quiet with a beautiful back drop of the Mississippi River close enough to touch.

We have a seasonal at Goose Island,guess that about says how much we love it. Sites in the back are huge,friendly campers,on the Mississippi river,how can you beat that.

Unfriendly campground host. I have never been so appalled and felt so segregated for having a larger dog at a “dog-friendly” campground. She didn’t even give us a chance to check-in before making snide comments about picking up after my dogs and you know they aren’t allowed off leash and you know we don’t allow fences but I guess you’re is attached to the camper (it’s a travel trailer with a patio). They better not jump the fence. Like oh my gosh lady we haven’t even stayed a night yet. My dogs are super friendly and extremely well trained. Great environment. Very very poor choice for a host. I would NOT recommend if you have dogs!!! Attitude is on point with this host.
