We visited Odetah this past weekend during their annual Halloween weekend. When we arrived Friday night, we unfortunately had an issue with power at our site which couldn't be resolved that evening, despite the efforts of several park staff. However, the next morning, the park's general manager and another worker showed up to keep working on the problem. They were able to fix it and got our power back on for the rest of the weekend! Throughout the situation, the staff was friendly and accommodating, allowing us to run our generator that first night despite their park policy against generators. We were given a refund for our weekend, which was unnecessary but much appreciated. We had an amazing time and were really impressed with the staff, the park and all the upgrades they have made since we last visited. We will definitely be back!

So I made a lot of Rookie Mistakes that I will share so others won't make as well. We checked in after hours 5pm... around 5:40 1. If there is an amenity that you really want to use and is the reason you stay here, like the Hot Tub... I should have called and confirmed ahead of time 2. You can NOT dump black tank at all of the sites... there is not a sign at our site... my husband didn't realize... and someone came by and asked and he was honest... which becomes a $200 fine... A sign at the site would be helpful... they may have told us if we checked into the office vs afterhours... 3. Activities are mostly all on the weekend... we came Sunday evening and started our day on Monday...after hours. So many ammenities and activities were not available. Showers are nice... lovely trees... So, right now, I am definitely disappointed

We just spent a long weekend at Odetah and it was wonderful. The manager, Sean, and Shari-Ann in the office, were so friendly and helpful. Every employee greeted us with a smile. The food from the Oasis cafe was great, with delivery to your campsite. The entire campground is well landscaped and very clean with incredible lake views. There's plenty of activities for adults and kids. We can't wait to go back.

So happy we found this place! We have been here three times so far and have enjoyed every stay. Nice, friendly, professional staff. Ladies in the store/office are absolutely fantastic. This place is clean and quiet. We will return many times. Thank you for your efforts in making this place great.

My family and Friends have enjoyed coming here for years. Its very clean and very safe. The only issue i have is that on your first day. You can't check in to your site until later in the afternoon. I understand that provides for the sites to be cleared from the previous guests, but on your check out day..you aren't allowed to use the pool/beach after 12. This means we actually lose a large chunk of vacation enjoyment, which is paid for. Perhaps allowing families who are checking out from their sites the opportunity to really enjoy all that this great campground has to offer until 3p would allow for more special family memories and greater customer loyalty that no doubt, would continue to grow year after year. Thank You for providing a place where family togetherness and fun are always in season.

Place is beautiful and well kept. Not many sites with sewer and the dump station location was not well thought out You will wait hours at the end of a weekend if you want to pump out. They need more and not all located at the entrance/exit. Electricity was sketchy but I think that may have been isolated to my site. Maintenance response was “nothing I can do” so we could not use our A/C or water heater for the weekend. One of the nicest campground pool areas I’ve ever seen.

Excellent RV resort in CT with hot tub and well maintained facilities. Lots of rules but the place was largely clean, quiet and comfortable. The place is big, so you can find a more private spot or closer to the activity facilities. We opted for a quiet site in the hills. The only drawback is this bath has only 2 main bathhouses which can be a bit of a walk. I think they should add a couple of small bathrooms without showers to provide better coverage. There is no golf carts unless there is a disability. Nice that there is less golf cart traffic, but there is a fair amount of walking required if your site is not near the facilities. We drove our car to the pool (parking was limited and closer restricted to 15 minutes only). They pick up trash throughout the day (it may be better if they pick just 1 time to limit trash being missed and eaten by animals over night). A few things could make this place even better, but it is still 5 stars for a lot of good reasons: nice store, clean facilities, great layout, lots of amenities other campgrounds do not offer. See you all there in the future.

Great Campground! Great staff! Clean, Well-kept grounds and facilities. Depending on your preference you can be camping or glamping with the different site options and your setup. Many activities for the whole family, live music on the beach is one of my favorites. The beautiful newly remodeled pool/hot tub/splash pad provide a perfect place to keep the kids busy and cool and for the adults to relax and enjoy the scenic view of the lake. There are cabana rentals for those who desire more shade and luxury at an added cost, a little steep for us. Well stocked camp store for any forgotten necessities and fun toys/candy for the kids. Though the overall cost is higher than most campgrounds in the area, so is the experience. You get what you pay for!

First.....This is a superb place for families! The pool and hot tub are spectacular along with the beautiful lake for kids. We chose a site way too far in the woods thinking it was the only one a big rig would fit but we should have taken one to back into because it made the distance too far for older folks (us) to walk to anything. Many/most of the best sites are lower in the campground and taken by seasonal campers. Con: no sewer hook ups in the upper woods or very few other spots. READ the rules first, they are not guest friendly which didn't bother us at all!

My wife and I stayed here with our 1 and a half year old recently for what was supposed to be a two night stay but we were having a good time and enjoying ourselves, so we decided to stay for one more night. We booked one of the premier cabins which includes AC, shower/toilet and cooking capabilities with indoor stove top and outside grill. This was mainly because of our little guy and we wanted him to enjoy himself which in turn would allow us to relax and have a good time as well. The cabin was super clean inside and out. silverware, pots and pans and dishware provided were all immaculate. Grill outside was practically brand new. Pool and splash pad were amazing (basically had the place to ourselves, we stayed mid week so the place wasn't too crowded). The lake was beautiful. The staff at the front desk were friendly and super helpful with any questions we had. We stayed off season so some of the offered amenities were not open yet, but we look forward to staying again when they are available. There are a lot of things to do for kids (boats, mini golf, playground and themed weekends). Overall we thought the place was great and can't wait to be back!

It was an awesome first camping trip for our young family! Our 1 year old absolutely loved the splash pad! Plenty of things to do and just a short drive for many day trip destinations! We will be back. Will bump this to 5 stars if.. some of the broken water features will be fixed at the splash pad for our next visit. The oasis menu needs help… the fried everything menu is not for everyone. I mean some fried stuff is good but some variety on the menu would be more appealing. Go back to offering pizza at the “like the older menu on the website had” pizzadillas or what ever you call them are not appealing… Better attention to the ice cream stand would be a big plus.. we went during a quiet midweek period but for some reason the we out of about half of the options on the menu and were lacking the ingredients to make most of their featured sundaes…

We had such a great experience this past summer. Very much looking forward to many years of camping but these folks. My kids loved it as much as we did.

Loved Odetah. The staff is very accommodating. The marketplace has everything you need. There are plenty of activities for kids. Overall a very beautiful place. We used the cabins and enjoyed our stay the cabins were clean. Most importantly the bathrooms are well taken care of and clean.
