The main group was more familiar, and comfortable, with the fortifications of the prison as compared to Woodbury. Additionally, the Governor, presumably, knew every inch of Woodbury and could, in theory, exploit the weaknesses that he knew existed in order to gain an advantage over the group. Had they known that the Governor and his lackeys were truly dead, Woodbury would have been the better option. Since they know, or assume, that he is still alive, the prison (a place where the Governor is unfamiliar with) is perhaps the better option.
