Will I be able to make it up and down the roads with a Nissan Pathfinder pulling a 18ft Apex Nano?

Not really sure what the tow capacity of the Pathfinder is,but 18 ft isn't really long, if you've towed it in any other hills at all, you'll have no problems here,it's NOT mountain driving, folks go there with rigs twice the length of yours, the main concern is curves, but take your time & you'll be fine, it's not a race.

Thanks for the pictures. We're looking forward to it, can't wait.

Thanks again

CaptBru. Sorry our conversation got stepped on. I was going to tell you that the site was super small, tough to get in to etc., etc and then with a followup post tell you the truth with these two pics taken today.





I think you'll enjoy your stay. Probably a "few" people roaming the beach area on the weekends

Been watching on Recretion.gov site and at this time there are 19 sites avaiable. 7 on the lower (lake) level and the remainder on the upper. All that I looked at seem fine, the problem is that we are not sure when we will be there. We're pretty sure we'll be there the 20th and 21st and even possibly the 19th. Far too many variables to pin point. Fairy Stone SP is a MUST, at least to see. So maybe a night there and then on to Goose Point. But the whole point of the stay is to find fairy stones. So where do you find these stones?
Avan, thanks for the Checkered Pig tip!

One of the nicest camp grounds we've been to.

Thanks

It looks like this

Arrived here at Goose Pt for the holiday weekend. First time here. What a nice campground! Didn't make early reservations so am not down on the lower level by the lake. In fact am up in the upper campground and the sites are pristine. Garmp1, although just got here did try the Checkered Pig in Martinsville, VA (20 miles) away and their BBQ ribs are great. Stopped by around 3pm to take some back to campsite and had to wait in line to order take out and the dine in seating area (maybe 50+/- seats) was full. Bet the line snakes down the block when NASCAR hits Martinsville.
