Goose Island State Park RV & Campground Guide

Goose Island State Park takes in thousands of campers each year, with facilities designed to accommodate both the tent and RV varieties. Campsites with water and electrical hookups start at $18 per night, and spots with only water and simple concrete pads in overflow camping areas are $10 per night.

Depending on which kind of spot you choose, you'll be close to conveniences like showers, restrooms, grills, fire pits, picnic tables and share shelters. Your pets can join you for your adventures, too, though don't expect to post pictures of them until you get home due to spotty cellular service and a lack of Wi-Fi. Every spot here gives you a front-row view to experience the park in its full majesty each day.

At  Angler's RV Retreat, you can expect some homey hospitality given that the family who owns the park also lives on-site. This RV campground has things like full hookups, complimentary Wi-Fi, water and sewer connections, picnic areas and concrete patios as well as a convenient location near the water for fishing and boating.

Pets are welcome as long as they're reasonably well-behaved and on a leash. Nightly rates differ between 30-foot and 50-foot spots at $35 and $45 per night, respectively. Discounts or extra charges are added based on the length of your stay, the number of people in your party and other factors.
