Goshen Moose Lodge

We pulled into Goshen, Indiana, mid-day today and drove to the Moose Lodge on the north edge of town. Behind the clubhouse is a large pond around which are over 100 RV campsites with hookups. We were assigned a spot along the edge of a wooded area where we had lots of space. The whole area is in a large grassy field with a few trees.




Previously when we have been in the Elkhart/Goshen area, we have stayed at a commercial RV Park where we paid around $220 for one week. Here at the Moose Campground, our cost for a week was only $50. Quite a savings!


The pond and large grass area of the campground attracted geese, which were all over the place. We had to shoo them away from our area a couple of times and, when we went for a walk, we needed to watch where we stepped.

Also Goshen is a railroad town and it seems like a train passes through town every few minutes, all day and all night. You have to learn to sleep through the train whistles.






The campground is nice, the view of the pond is nice, and the clubhouse is very nice. In addition, they have a nice lounge and serve food in the lodge. We went to a fish fry one night and I had biscuits and gravy for breakfast one morning. It was all pretty good.

The campground and the area is well worth the savings we enjoyed here, so we'll probably be back. For the price, we can tolerate the geese and the train whistles.
