We loved this campground. We had a beautiful, roomy, shaded site. We loved the indoor pool and the hot tubs. Perfect for the cooler or inclement weather. The lake is very pretty. The roads are paved and nice for bike riding. The showers and bathrooms were very clean and the water was always hot. The only drawback I could see was the outdoor pool. It seemed pretty small. It might have been smaller than the indoor pool. It wasn't open when we were there, though, so I can't say for sure. We camped here in a Tent Trailer.

We just returned from a stay at Otter Lake. The campground was maintained very well. The bathrooms and bath houses were cleaned often and hot showers are free. The roads were paved and didn't have many low hanging branches. The sites seemed very level and were gravel. The indoor pool was a good size and the hot tubs were nice to relax in. All the campground staff were very helpful and even allowed a late checkout with no fee. The lake is beautiful and its nice to rent a boat and fish. Be cautious of night time visitors, the raccoons come out around 11pm even when no food is present and we were warned of bears invading dumpsters. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

Just got back from camping at Otter Lake Camp Resort this past weekend (4/3/09 - 4/5/09). We stayed in lakefront site L28. What a great site! Site was very large and level. Bathrooms and showers were both clean and heated. Very scenic, quiet, and well worth the $48 dollar a night fee. Everyone was very nice and except for the high wind, the trip was great. Would definitely be back here and often. Stay here and you will not be disappointed. We camped here in a Tent Trailer.

Love this C/G!! We come here often as the staff is wonderful and campground is great. Facilities are top notch. Great location to use as base and see the Poconos! Restrooms are extremely maintained. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Spent the first week of August here with another family who I do a lot of camping with. I have to say that this is one of my favorite CG's. I already booked the first 16 days next August (09). I have made some dear friends while I was there. The people (staff and campers) were some of the friendliest helpful I have ran into anywhere. The place was spotless. At first I didn't think I would have too good of a time. I thought I would be bored after a few days. They have so much for everyone to do. Old and young alike. It is very very family friendly along with pet friendly. I am counting the days until next August. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

We arrived here on a Saturday afternoon which proved to be a mistake for traffic. It took us 30 minutes to travel 8 miles! The road to the campsite is very windy and steep so take care driving it and would NOT recommend driving it in the dark!! Our site was lake front and actually quite roomy and beautiful. I have no complaints on our site or the grounds. Both where beautifully maintained. We are a traveling family that our jobs require Wi-Fi access 24/7. When making our reservations we asked them if they had on-site Wi-Fi and they assured us they did. Well "on-site" to me means I have access at my actual site. They meant it was only at the office. To access it you have to sit in your car or on a bench outside the office. It is very inconvenient and uncomfortable to sit on a bench without a table. Also we found the staff not very friendly and at time extremely rude. Simple questions like "Where is the closest bathroom" was replied with "You just passed three of them!" A simple reply of just over there beyond the playground or you can use the ones by the pool, would have been a lot more hospitable. Like other travelers have reported, lots of kids here and there are few activities for them. They do have paddle boats and row boats to rent. We loved riding our bikes and walking around the lake. We might go back again if the Wi-Fi access changes but it is sometimes hard to ignore rude staff. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

Very nice peaceful campground. Sites were spacious and well shaded. Nice beach and indoor pool area. Lake was perfect for fishing. Boats were available for rent. Would like to have more scheduled activities for the kids. Staff was very friendly and helpful. Would camp there again. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

We stopped here for three nights, June 30 thru July 3. When we arrived we had no idea this campground would be inundated with kids. They were everywhere. The campground has over 300 sites with over half being permanent seasonal campers (many with wheels off, porches and rooms added on). We found our site and watched the parade of people walking, riding bikes, roller skating and using push scooters on the streets. Some children are very bold and ride their bikes close to you while you walk on the street and force cars to go around them. The rules say children under 12 must wear helmets. Scratch that rule. They advertise wireless internet but it is not at your site. The only place you can get it is in the office area, which was a long walk from our campsite. There is no place to sit and use your computer and I had to stand at one of the store counters to use it. I told them it would be nice if they had a picnic table or something out front to use but that idea went right over the persons head. One person outside was sitting on the ground using theirs. I realize some people may think I shouldn’t be complaining about this, but wireless is important for some people traveling to make advance reservations, keep in touch with other family member or read reviews on campgrounds to avoid (like this one).In one month of traveling it was the highest priced campground we stayed at. On our arrival the fire ring was loaded with cigarette butts and some trash on the site. The water pressure was very low coming out of the faucet but the bathrooms had about three times the pressure.. Showering in the RV was lousy. Also we observed a lot of dog barking. Some people would leave their dogs tied up outside and leave the site. Other people were walking by and the dogs started barking to the point it sounded like a dog fight – and we were almost a block away from this and it was so loud I walked over to see what was happening. Would we stay here again – never. The RV coach next to us (also had no children) had prepaid their stay and left early with no refund offered by the office. They could not stand it and gave up two days of a paid up site. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

This was our first trip to Otter Lake Campground, and after reading all the great reviews we were very excited and were not disappointed. The campground lives up to it's good rating. The sites are clean and level and seasonals do not look like seasonals. We camped with a 7 year old and a 4 year old and they loved riding their bikes around the campground. We enjoyed ceramics and the fire truck ride. The pool was very clean but cold. The kids enjoyed the slide and diving board. Our only problem was the staff's attitude throughout our stay. The are young and could careless about your needs. Not that we had any problems they were just not friendly. The bathrooms were dirty by the afternoons but we have seen worse. All in all, we are going back again! We camped here in a Tent Trailer.

Overall this is a great park with lots to do. There are several playgrounds for the children, fishing, a nice walk around the lake and an indoor pool for swimming. Our campsite was beautiful and on the lake. We were told we had a pull-thru site, which was not the case, but it was a great site nonetheless. The other campers were friendly and neat. Some of the seasonal sites are not that attractive. We would return to this campground later in the season when it was warmer and we could use all the amenities. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

This has got to be one of the nicest campgrounds we have been in. The staff was very friendly. The sites were excellent. Paved roads plenty of room to maneuver our camper. Looking forward to going back. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

This is our second time coming to this campground. We have found it very clean and well kept, and most of the guests also very friendly & courteous. The bathrooms were clean as were the showers. Wear you sneakers here, there is plenty of walking if you do the activities, and the hike around the lake is enjoyable. There are several playgrounds located around the campground which was very nice for my 4 1/2 year old & her friend. If I were to settle in as a seasonal camper somewhere, it would probably be here. We were rushed through our activity (ceramics was to end at 12:30 and they were putting everything away at 11:45) The only reason I did not give them a 10 is that I thought the staff had an end of season attitude at the beginning of the season . . maybe they were having a bad weekend. We camped here in a Motorhome.

This was our first year at this park and we will be back. The road to the campground is typical PA backroad (winding and pot-holes) but the CG itself was great. We had a back-in spot in front of the lake...great view to wake-up to in the morning and the kids loved feeding a couple of ducks that visited. The workers were friendly and the sites were clean. The store was well-stocked and the game room was just enough to keep the kids busy for a bit while walking around the store. The indoor pool as well as the bathrooms were clean and well kept. There is a lot to do in the area and the CG location is perfect for seeing all the sites. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

Just got back from another great time at this CG. We haven't had a bad time yet. It was very cold while there but still had fun. Indoor pool and hot tub were great! Bathrooms and showers were clean and heated. We had a towed car so their is plenty to do within a 15 mile radius. We were in site LF15. I pulled in our RV so you had a great view of the lake out the front windshield. The normal way is to back in but, water wasn't on so it didn't matter. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Otter Lake is fanastic. The lake is beautiful and big. The sites are spacious and wooded, with enough trees between sites to offer some privacy. Our site was so level I didn't need to put anything under my tires. It was cold so we didn't spend much time outside but we did spend lots of time in the indoor pool and hot tub! The beach area could have been a little bigger given the size of the lake. There is plenty to do in the camp ground but if you feel the need to leave there plenty more to do in the Poconos. We will be going back in the summer of 2008. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

This was our first time at Otter Lake. Let me break my opinions into sections: Pros: 1. In my opinion-Otter Lake is one of the few, true "destination" campgrounds in the Pocono-Lancaster area. Many daily activities with an adult supervisor at each activity are offered on a daily basis. Sports, crafts, archery are offered free of charge. In addition there is boating and ceramics for a fee. The paved roads also offer an ideal place to ride bikes. A lot of people also fished in the 60 acre lake. You could easily stay at this campground for an entire week, not leave, and still have a lot to do. 2. Campsites are spacious and well thought out. Trees, without being too shady, give you privacy from your neighbor. 3. A lot of security. 4. The staff was very friendly and helpful. Cons- I thought that the showers could have been a bit cleaner. Just for general information: 1. Golf carts are not allowed. 2. There are many seasonal people here with many seasonal teen-agers. Don't get me wrong, this wasn't a problem, but I do want to mention something-if you are traveling with a teen-ager (we were) you might want to let them bring a friend along. Our daughter felt a bit intimidated by all of the teens that knew one another. She would have done better with a friend to walk around with (someone other than her parents). 3. Wifi is available only at the store. It is free. Would we go back, yes. We camped here in a Motorhome.

We loved this park and will make it a regular spot. We camped alongside friends, and we had a preschooler plus our dog. We found the campground well maintained and secure, the seasonal areas were very nice, our site and our friend's sites were level and easy to get in & out of, lots of activities, friendly campers. Our only caution is if you are coming up 80N, be prepared for lots of traffic. once we hit the campground we loved it. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Otter Lake is a great campground. The staff is excellent. The bathrooms and showers are always clean. The lake is an excellent place to swim and so are both of their pools. We camped here in a Motorhome.

I have been coming to this campground since I was a kid and it's only gotten better since then. It's a little pricey, but they have 2 pools indoor heated for winter use and an outdoor, Beach swim area in the lake with sandy bottom. Staff seemed friendly enough. Now for the reason I come to this campground: The Fishing!! You can fish without a PA license which is nice because I'm from NJ. The fishing is usually pretty good because it's catch and release. Lot's of bathhouses and plenty of showers clean and all in working order. A really nice place to camp. We camped here in a Tent Trailer.

We love this park! The sites are of good size, the park is well planned with multiple pools and play areas. Tennis courts are nice and there is also a ball field. And, a nice lake! The staff are helpful and friendly. There is something for everyone here. We are local, within an hour, so we don't go out of the park, but for us it is a close getaway for weekends. We camped here in a Motorhome.

We were disappointed. The site was a pull through but we had to maneuver the camper just to be able to get the slide out. The indoor pool was overly chlorinated, the playgrounds were the old metal type with a couple of swings. The seasonals were everywhere and incredibly run down. The whole place was run down and quite frankly kind of scary. We will not be revisiting. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

I stayed here on the weekend of the 20th and 27th. This CG is fantastic! Office staff are great, along with the maintenance staff. The only complaint would be the decor of the bathrooms. They are clean but old. A great place to stay anyway. We stayed in a 36' motorhome. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Camped here over Columbus weekend & it was beautiful!! If you want to see fall foliage, this is a great place to go. Staff is helpful & friendly. I had a 2-way hookup for over 3 months without any hope of a full-hookup because the placed was booked solid. A few hrs before we left the house, I called 1 last time but still nothing. 15mins before we left we got a call asking if we wanted a full-hookup that had just been cancelled. I really liked the fact that they called me rather than letting the site go to a "new" reservation. I'd say this is good customer service. This cg is very lush & shaded. Sites are quite spacious but some are a bit tight to back in & roads are narrow. Lakefronts sites are really nice; especially #24-29. All roads are paved, which makes for great bike riding for kids. Security is always present & making their rounds. Bathrooms & indoor pool are clean but way outdated & in desperate need of renovations. You have to pay 25cents for the hot tub whirlpools to work. Who thinks of bringing quarters to a pool?! One aspect I personally don't like is that you have to pay $4/night for kids. The walking trail around the lake is very nice. I'm sure this place is great in the summer too. However, we'll return for Columbus weekend next year. Overall - great place to go! We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

Nice park, the lake is beautiful. We had a nice site in "B" area, plenty of room to stretch out. The staff we very friendly and helpful, people guiding campers into the correct entrance on Friday afternoon, someone helping speed along departure on Sunday too. The bathrooms were nice in 1978, they are in bad need of updating/renovations. They seemed clean, but stunk of old urine as most bathhouses do. The indoor pool is sweet, hot tubs were nice too. The pool hours we a little lame, but I can understand them not wanting to have to send someone out to close up late and all. They charge extra for children, this is annoying but also becoming common practice at most of the places we go to. There is a lot to do around the local area, Bushkill Falls was cool, and there was a monstrous Flea Market we didn't end up going to but looked interesting. We will be going back to visit Otter Lake for some late fall camping, I hope to get a lakefront site, they looked VERY nice. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

We have been coming here for quite a few years and the kids absolutely love it.Very clean shaded sites, lots of activities for adults and children. I'm only giving this place a 9 out of 10 because of the owner .He is one of the most miserable people I've never met. I say never because he won't say hello when greeted or return a wave when waved to. If it wasn't such a nice place , I wouldn't give the man a dime of my money. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

I love this place... We traveled here the weekend before memorial day and love this place. The indoor pool with the indoor hot tub is great. We can relax in the tub while we watch the kids swim.. the bathrooms are clean and the staff is friendly, nice homemade beach and lots of activates to do like family kickball such a fun sport. The site is a nice size we were behind the indoor pool. Yes we will travel here again next year and probably the year after that too.... We camped here in a Motorhome.

Very scenic, terrific sites. Worth the trip. Highly recommend! We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

We stayed overnight on our way to Washington DC. We had a pull through site which was very spacious and roomy. Overall, this campground appeared to be well kept, and the campers we encountered all loved it there. We did take a drive around the campground before departing, and liked everything we observed. This campground is a keeper. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

We can not say enough good things about this CG. Every site is shaded, all sites are just about level, clean rest rooms and showers and lot's to do for the kids. This CG is beautiful and very well maintained. The owners really know how to run a campground. The roads are a little narrow but even the big rigs can make it. We really liked the "adult only" time every night at the indoor pool. The one thing that we would suggest is to have a few more washers and dryers available, with 300 sites 10 washers just isn't enough. We will be going back often. Do not skip this CG. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

Well run, very clean campground, lots of activities for the kids, great fishing! We found the sites to be clean, well shaded, if a little on the small side. Campground security did a good job of controlling things, making sure 'quiet time' was just that. The paved streets meant little or no dust, the indoor pool and hot tubs were just the thing after a long day in the sun. We'll go back for sure! We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

Lots of seasonal campers - barking dogs, loud parties with "regulars" with little to no regard for campground "quiet" rules. Other than that, the area is gorgeous, nice activities for kids and nice sites. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

If you can handle the drive 'up the mountain' this campground is a very good place to stay. Nice lake stocked with fish - winter camping finds ice fishing and snowmobiles everywhere! Summer swimming on a beach or in the pool. Nice indoor pool area with hot tub only for adults. Bathhouses are impressive. Separate shower rooms (4 0r more for each bathhouse). Outside spiqots with hot& cold water for winter campers and to clean pots and pans. Many seasonal sites but weekenders made to feel welcome. Many activities for every age group. Most sites level and easy to access. Large separate tenting area. Lot of bathhouses and several laundromats. Everything is convenient. Good campstore with basically friendly staff. Pizza and ice cream available in summer months. Winter camping encouraged and great fun. We will return soon. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

There is so much to do here. Everyone was friendly. This is a great family resort. We are going back in '03 and we're bring friends! We camped here in a Tent Trailer.

NIce campground in the Pocono's. Large campground with lots of lakefront sites, big beach although the lake is very shallow, lots of fishing goes on here. Pools are great, activities are terrific, and the kids loved the firetruck ride thru the park at 4 p.m. Tough to get reservations for weekend stays during the summer due to "management policy" on short stay reservations. We will go back again as this is a great place to visit. We camped here in a camper.
