We went awhile back and absolutely loved it! We have some of the best memories from camping there. There was a tent next to us that was very obviously smoking weed but we just zipped up our tent and we were fine. We took boats out on the water and had a lot of fun and the pool was loved by all.

Very well maintained RV park. The owners seem to care greatly about their work and it shows. The paperwork you have to sign seems a little ridiculous, but I’m sure it help keep the riffraff down.. the deposit for messing up the lawn or the gravel is a little steep, but I am sure they have their reasons for that too. they have a little shop for miscellaneous needs and wants. Loved the little trails that they made on the property. The ability to rent kayaks, paddle boards or little boats. they did movie night one night. It's a fun place. The pool was a little cold but clean. The river is super shallow, which was surprising but seemed to have some fish. The playground is older, but well maintained. The full timers weren’t super friendly, but they were also not standoffish/ rude. The price seemed fair for the quality. Verizon signal was good. The town was small, but quaint. not much to do in town.

Great quiet campground with super accommodating staff. I do wish there was a little more for small kids, but other than that it's a great campground! Good size sites, awesome location with the river, fun fishing and boating and the whole place is super clean!

Had a great 4 night stay! Grounds are very clean and the management did a great job checking in with us to make sure we were having a good stay. The seasonal folks we met were nice and there were plenty of dogs for ours to meet and play with. One night got a little noisy from one group in the tent area but the owners took care of it and the rest of the nights were quiet. We look forward to returning for another visit soon! They have a great store in the office with just about anything you need to fix your camper if you have trouble while your there.

Had an amazing experience besides the record breaking heat. Pool, bathrooms, showers were all kept very clean. The staff more than pleasant to hold a conversation with and Absolutely welcoming.The campsites were clean, water hookup water was clean water. And 100% dog friendly if the rules are followed and dogs are respectful. Will be staying here again.

2 stars. Weekend campers beware!! The 2 stars are only because it is a beautiful campground, hammock trees, large, grassy and shady sites. Most people were very nice that we talked to. Sometimes the seasonals at campgrounds like this are very rude to weekenders. Weekend campers are mixed in with the seasonal sites. OK, so that meant 4 separate lots mowed their lawn on Saturday, and another was building a deck all day. Peaceful, right? Add in the constant drive by golf carts, and the late night party on the new deck across the road from us. They were so loud (after quiet hours) that I couldn’t even hear my husband sitting next to me at the fire. And the passive aggressive pointing out of “quiet hours are 9-9” upon check in, and the laundry list of rules that are common sense made this lifelong camper nervous! I brought it up when we left, and was told I needed to call the number on the door to the office to make a complaint. What?! You have signs all over stating what quiet hours are, you make a point to tell me at check in, and it’s on me to make a complaint? Where are all your rule enforcers?! If you have rules, you need to enforce them. How do you think state parks squashed their wild and crazy reputations? They have workers on patrol, enforcing the rules. We won’t be back, which is a bummer, you are close to home, and a beautiful place.

I have stayed here for a week now. The campground is well maintained. The staff is not only professional, but they are a very hardworking team. I would recommend this place to anyone camping in the area. Well, as long as you are adult enough to abide by the few rules that they are strict about, but for obvious reasons. They work hard to keep the place nice, so they have expectations of their campers as well. Good people. I’m thankful for my time here.

Quiet, peacful, hospitable, and spacious. They have pretty much everything a traveler needs: wood, propane, laundry, and showers. The Playful Goose also has a well equipped store, a social/play room, and an indoor pool. If you are looking for a party place, look elsewhere. I appreciate the peaceful wooded park. The owner and her boyfriend (high five to him) were super accommodating and helpful.

We loved our weekend at Playful Goose Campground. The staff were kind and helpful. The grounds were well kept as well as the pool and store. The pool is indoor, and it’s huge! We will definitely be back.

Stayed at a friend's site, who is seasonal. They had trick or treat in September and all who participated were great. The nearest town has a great butcher that I'd recommend (Leroys). I'm no avid camper so consider that for my review. I didn't have an issue with owners when speaking with them as some reviews suggested. I'll go again and would recommend from a seasonal standpoint, can't speak to just the weekend.

the place is nice, but they don't allow you to bring your firewood, you have to buy it from them. We did not know that music is only allowed until 9 o'clock and the person who went to tell us that we could not have the music yelled at us in a bad way that we had to turn off the radio. He is supposed to explain the rules to us and ask us in a good way to turn it off, but it was not like that. my whole family was surprised and upset by the way the person treated us. We would never return to this place.
