"Breathtaking views from nearby trails and nearby Big Pocono State Park. The park staff were very helpful and knowledgeable about nearby trails and best places to get the most out of the views!"
"Scenic state park with a lake. You can swim in the lake in the summer or do a 5-mile hike around the lake along well-marked walk paths. There are at least two parking lots(no parking fees)."

"Access points to several trails are very near the campground. As with all PA state parks, alcohol is prohibited."
ScoutProbably the worst shower ever. The lights are timed. The water is a button. The space is small as hell.
TravelerArrived mid-afternoon, visitor center/Ranger office was closed, our reservation sheet was available in a mailbox near the door with instructions. No human contact. Park was not mowed, seemed a little rough & unattended. Our full hookup site was large with table and fire ring, and required some leveling. Not much shade in the full hookup loop, so was happy to have electricity for A/C. The beach was a little more than a half mile walk from our site.
ScoutWe got 3 tent lots & they were kind enough to put all of us together. We had an awesome weekend & can’t wait to return!
ScoutLots of good things here. Large sites, new buildings, including the office and all the bathrooms. Only thing missing is a pool. You’re not allowed to swim in the lake although you’re allowed to use floats. The area has not much to do unless you would like the state park, which is close by. Kind of surprised they allow fireworks, as we were here on July 4 weekend. Would definitely come back.
LegendThis place is unique by location alone! We stopped for two nights on our way to CT. They have an onsite buffet with live entertainment if your timing is right. They are also located right on a river that you can easily access by foot. They have a decent laundry facility and full hook ups. No frills at the site but perfect for the commuting RVers just looking for somewhere safe to sleep for the night.
RangerOtter Lake Campground was one of the best campgrounds we went to.... pros and cons
Pros-
-Beautiful Lake with fishing & boating
-Pools indoor and outdoor
-Great playgrounds
-Great biking even a trail around the like
-lots of activities planned
-awesome store stocked well
-the area had alot of hiking close
-food truck at certain times in the lot
CONS
-security was so annoying about riding bikes after a certain time ... we were actually told we couldn't play bingo because we wouldn't be done before it started to get dark so bring our bikes back then try to come back... huh
-secuirty would stalk the playground and tell the kids to leave it was getting dark... never went to a campground where you couldn't ride a bike at night.
Spots : wooded areas which we love, spacious, bathhouse all around that were clean, spots around Lake.
We liked this campground even if the security was a little crazy. We would go back if we did revisit campgrounds.
GuideClean site, quiet away from major roads. Accessible boat launch. Very open to other sites.
TravelerExcellent family quiet area. Pool boats, hike, relax
ScoutVery open, plenty of space. most campgrounds have previously stocked wood from other people, makes setting up very convenient. lots of ticks tho so get your spray
