For Goose Hollow Camp and RV Park: We are seasoned RV’ers and have traveled extensively visiting campgrounds all over the East Coast. In all the years we have been camping we have NEVER been treated so horribly. The owners are by far the nastiest people I have ever met . Our son owns a very popular business in the same town. He also lives right up the road from the campground. We were visiting for 4 days excited to spend some time with our grandkids. We were hoping to spend a couple of hours on Saturday with the kids by the pool. Something I told the owner when I called to book. He never once mentioned extra fees. He also said he would be happy to put us by the pool. It all started the first night when we had our son, daughter in law and one grandchild for dinner. They wanted to charge my daughter in law $115 to visit. I went up to the off and tried to explain that they would be there only about an hour for dinner. They said for them to visit for 4 days that was the charge. I tried to explain that they would only be having dinner that night and Friday night. The kids were in camp all day so no kids would be with us during the day. They let them in for an hour. The next morning, the husband was out by the pool, so I went over to try and talk to him. I let him know that we would probably not be there very much during the four days or it would only be for dinners. We had hoped to have the kids for a couple hours on Saturday to use the pool so I offered to pay for that. He got very defensive and told me that campers like Me didn’t belong in his campground, and that he he was a small local company and they all work together in that town. I replied well, if you all work together then obviously, you don’t work with certain businesses because my son owns one of the best businesses in the town. He told me if I didn’t like it that he would give me my money back. I went back to the RV and spoke to my husband called my son. My son said mom just get out of there and go to my house. As I was packing up to leave, he came along with his golf cart, and his wife and I had my back to him and I turned and told him we were leaving. He had my check in his hand and gave it back to me. And told me to get out and then the wife got out and started using the F word She was so nasty that we couldn’t wait to get out of there since then we’ve read a lot of negative reviews similar to our experience. All I can say is if you want to go camping in Thornton, New Hampshire don’t go to Goose Hollow campground. If you’re an outsider you will be treated like trash . We have camped many times at Branch Brook campground in Campton New Hampshire, which is right down the street. We made a big mistake choosing GOOSE HOLLOW this time. The kicker is that the pamphlet that they give you when you arrive with the map it says on the pamphlet if you have overnight guests you’re allowed four adults and two children total. The extra adults would pay $10 apiece and the children would pay five dollars apiece but that was for OVERNIGHT only. Not at any time did we plan to have guests overnight. Also, we booked (and paid for) a site which would’ve included two adults and two children. I explained to them that we were only two adults, and if we did have the grandkids there, they would be the two children. He told me those were OLD rules. BEWARE???

For Goose Hollow Camp and RV Park: Great campground, I've been coming here for years and plan on continuing to camp here. Perfectly located in between the White Mountains and Lake Winnipesaukee. Good size grassy sites with plenty of shade. Quite, peaceful and never over crowded. Owner does a great job of planning family related activities that my children love. I would highly recommend this campground.
