Amazing park! The owner is friendly and wonderful to talk with. The park is clean and well maintained. It is definitely worth making this a stop with your RV!!!

We were making our way back east after spending a couple of years out west and stumbled upon this gem of a campground! The owners and hosts couldn’t be nicer — they truly make you feel at home. There’s a beautiful pond full of fish, and our boys were in absolute fish heaven! While you’re there, don’t miss Fairfield Bay Marina — the lake is stunning! If you have the time, rent a boat and explore it yourself. You won’t regret it. Also, check out the Indian Rock Cave and Trail — it’s a short, easy hike that leads to a large cave with ancient petroglyphs. Such a cool piece of history and absolutely beautiful!

Golden Pond RV Park is a hidden gem! The staff were incredibly friendly and made us feel right at home. We loved spending time at the fishing pond—caught a few nice ones! Plus, it’s just minutes from Fairfield Marina, which has boat rentals. Highly recommend this place!

Very nice property and the people were super helpful. Some spots are close to the road and it can be a bit loud at night

Very nice RV park. Quiet, Clean, has pool & hot tub, bath house and laundry on site. Fishing pond on site and only few minutes from beautiful Greens Ferry Lake. Office on site. Very friendly people.

This was such a welcoming peaceful place. Austin put us down by the pond and it was a little private area to spend next to the woods and water. The kids got to fish and roast marshmallows. A family experience where everyone was nice and welcoming. Would definitely go back!

This is a nice small quiet campground. It's not big, and the feel is more like staying at a friend's house. I say this because our experience with owners/workers was friendly, curious, and he talked to us like we just dropped into his house. Which you kind of seem to. I believe they live on property and you use his pool. There is a hot tub and about 30 rv spots, a few seem to have seasonal/full timers. A few of those people we did talk to used the words "small community" and I agree. I would definitely return, it maybe small but if you like quiet its great.
