It lies 7.7 km east-south-east of Renfrew, ON (from Renfrew, ON: bearing 108°T), and is situated 14.4 km west of Braeside.

The air, especially after a rain, carries the clean scent of damp soil and growing things, a subtle perfume that speaks of the agricultural heart of this place. The scattered farmsteads, with their sturdy barns and well-tended fields, dot the countryside like punctuation marks in a story of patient cultivation, each contributing to the overall sense of rural repose. The history of Goshen is intrinsically tied to the land and the early settlers who carved their lives from its bounty. This area was once a vital artery for logging, with the Ottawa River system serving as a crucial highway for timber rafts, a legacy that still whispers in the names of some local streams. Later, the rich soil proved ideal for mixed farming, and the rhythm of the seasons continues to dictate the pace of life for many in Goshen. While larger industries may have passed through, the enduring strength of Goshen lies in its agricultural roots and the resourcefulness of its people, a spirit evident in the local co-operatives and the small businesses that serve the surrounding farms.
