I was there to stage a sports event (orienteering) at Gold Head Branch State Park. I was busy. I think anyone would like how peaceful and quiet the property is, how comfortable are the beds, at least the king size one, and what a nice, powerful relaxing shower. Did not watch TV or cook or even go outside in the daytime but everything looked great. ##### gordhun Stayed 2 nights in Dec 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Scot R.
