    Goose Bay is a very interesting campground. It's clear that most people rent RV sites for the entire season, but are only at the campground for the weekend to go boating.

It's clear that most people rent RV sites for the entire season, but are only at the campground for the weekend to go boating. So during the week, it's full of RVs but zero people - which was great! The weekends during the summer are a different story. It gets even busier than you'd expect, because Goose Bay allows two RVs per site. Almost every site had two RVs, which doubled the number of people and they all spilled out into neighboring sites. Very annoying to deal with a dozen children running in and out of your site and parents that don't listen or care. Other than the people, the campground was lovely! Large, level gravel sites. Ours had a beautiful view of the marina and small bay. And then it was only a short walk to even prettier views of Canyon Ferry Lake. There are multiple picnic areas, lakeside benches, and even a swimming beach. They charge $10 to use their dump station even if you are a camper, but fresh water is free. Their fresh water fill was very weird - they only had the spray heads you see on the non-potable at dump stations. It looked like they would only work for gravity fill tanks. Luckily if you pull up a few feet by the bathroom there is a regular hose connection, which we used so we could use our filter.I will ditto the reviews that say the 3-mile dirt road to get to the campground is brutal. We boondock and off road all the time and this was probably the worst washboard we've ever experienced. Verizon: 42 mbps up / 29 mbps down

There is a base rate for your camp spot the an up-charge of $5 a night if you have an electric spot and another $5 a night if your site has electricity. Using the dump station is $10 if you are not in full hookups, fresh water is available at two fill stations, unfortunately you cannot attach your own water filter to the fill stations as they have a hose that is not threaded and you cannot remove the hose.THE ROAD….I’ve been on LOTS of washboarded roads in the US deserts and Mexico, but never such an unrelenting brutal one as the one to the campground from the highway. I am not the fly over at high speed guy, You may not feel the bumps in your car but your RV or trailer is being trashed. The road is also extremely dusty. If not for that road I would recommend this park, great facilities, launch ramp, docks but I am already dreading the drive back out.The bathrooms and showers are spotless! Showers are 3 min for 25 cents.The office staff and campground Hosts can’t be beat, the very best. They helped me immensely finding a spot during a busy summer week.

    This campground is clean, well-kept and offers many amenities. It is close to the lake, a quick walk to the dock, plenty of venues for sunset views, plus a store, dump station, potable water, propane refills, and equipment rentals. Beware: The dump station is NOT free, even if you've paid to stay the night.

But, the campground itself is very level and nice large spots. Paved roads, gravel lots. Also, the website is pretty deceiving about the water views. There is a large slope down to the water and there are only a handful of full hookup sites that have a water view. Which is an inlet view. There are many dry camping spots with a nice lake view. Also, this campground is in between Townsend, MT and Helena, MT and takes about 30 minutes to get to either. We were there over the 4th of July holiday and on the weekends all the locals seemed to show up and know each other and yelled over to each other over the campsites. Walking thru your campsite etc. During the week it was very quiet. Beautiful sky views though!
