My husband and I have been staying at Goosepond Campground for the past 15 years in our RV. We live 100 miles from the Campground, but we come and stay as often and as long as we can. Everyone is always so nice, so friendly and so helpful in every way. We leave our RV there year round and have never had anything stolen. I hope that everyone has a good experience as we have always had. Any time you are in the area, feel free to stop by for a visit. We are on Lot #313. Looking forward to seeing you soon.

I’m not too sure about the service. The only thing I wish is they had a dryer or a hairdryer at the very least however it was very beautiful very spacious and your typical Lake House were in but loved.

Goose Pond Colony Resort is a hidden gem in Alabama! The golf course is fantastic, well-kept, fun, and challenging in all the right ways. The cozy lakefront cabins are perfect for relaxing on the screened in deck and the marina has everything you need if you’re bringing a boat. Add in the peaceful setting, and it’s the ideal spot whether you’re planning a family vacation or a couples getaway. We’ll definitely be back.

We were left without any clean linens the entire last day and night of the trip. We also were unable to get the bathtub to hold water even after maintenance came to repair it. It would be helpful if the cabin numbers were in both sides of the cabins as our family is large and we tend to get a large block and the cabins look alike.
