About this campground

Goose Point Campground is nestled on the shores of Philpott Lake in the rugged foothills of Virginia's Blue Ridge Mountains. The clear water and natural shoreline make Philpott Lake a unique place for visitors. The campground has spectacular views of the Blue Ridge Mountains. It offers 63 campsites, 53 of which have electric and water hookups. Amenities include flush toilets, showers, drinking water, and a dump station. For family-friendly entertainment, a beach, boat ramp, dock, fishing pier, picnic shelter, playground and amphitheater are also on-site. During non-peak season (November-March) water will be provided at a community spigot as well as a heated shower house and individual electric hook-ups. Water to individual sites and the dump station will not be provided. The lake provides visitors with great boating and swimming opportunities. Anglers enjoy fishing for large and smallmouth bass, walleye, bluegill, crappie and catfish. Many miles of hiking and biking trails surround Philpott Lake, allowing visitors to get out and explore this scenic area.

What campers say

Goose Point Park offers attractive lake views, a sandy beach and a variety of water-based recreation—fishing, swimming, boating—with lakefront and shaded sites popular for families and events. Campground and service areas are generally well kept, and staff are described as friendly and welcoming. Practical tradeoffs include some uneven or small RV sites, variable water pressure and occasional light pollution from the boat ramp and nearby campers at night. Those seeking a scenic, family-oriented lakeside stay will likely enjoy it, but RVers or visitors sensitive to nighttime light or site level may want to plan accordingly.
