Plan your summer vacation now! Otter Lake Camp Resort has something for everyone in the family!
Welcome to Otter Lake Camp Resort, your year-round camping destination on 300 wooded acres in the Pocono Mountains of Pennsylvania. Enjoy a fun, relaxing getaway that is centered around a glistening 60-acre lake that is perfect for boating (no gas motors allowed), swimming and challenging bass fishing — and no fishing license is required.
Otter Lake Camp Resort presents a full range of fun activities for the whole family. Activities change with the seasons, so you will never lack for things to do regardless of the timing of your stay. In Spring and Fall, planned weekend activities include softball and volleyball games, ceramics on Saturdays, fire truck rides, movies and Bingo. Of course, holidays such as Easter, Mother’s Day and Halloween have their own special themed events.
In the Summer, the resort’s Activity Director plans daily children’s activities, including softball, kickball, soccer, fishing contests, arts and crafts, and more. Adults and kids alike can participate in our archery and ceramics classes. There are also a daily firetruck ride and two Bingo sessions per week. During summer, you will enjoy entertainment with live bands and DJs on Saturday nights, church services on Sundays and much, much more.
If organized activities are not to your liking, there are plenty of fun things to do on your own at Otter Lake. No license is required for fishing in our well-stocked, 60-acre spring-fed lake. The lake has bass, pickerel, perch, sunfish and catfish. Our lake is catch and release only. There are rowboats, canoes, kayaks and pedal boats for rent by the hour, day or week. You may also bring your own boat free of charge, remembering that Pennsylvania state law requires life jackets for each person and a whistle or horn in each boat. Electric motors are permitted on registered boats, but not gasoline motors.
We have swimming at three locations. Our outdoor pool has a grassy lawn area for sunning, a diving area with a diving board, a slide and a separately enclosed kiddie pool. We also have a new splash park for children opening in June 2012! On the lake, there is a sandy beach with a roped-off swimming area. The heated indoor pool is open all year, with limited hours in the Spring and Fall and only weekend hours from mid-October until May. A sauna and 2 whirlpools are also located in the indoor pool area. There are four tennis courts, two racquetball courts and a basketball court – all with lights for night use. Two shuffleboard courts and horseshoe pits are also available.
Sports equipment with a deposit; however, we do not supply either tennis balls or racquetballs. We have four playgrounds in different areas of the campground, ensuring that your children will not have to go far to have fun. Book your stay early at Otter Lake Camp Resort.
