Otter Lake Campground & Lodges

Dirt paths and mainly dirt campsites, if you are opposed to this you may not like the sites. However, campground is in a nice setting next to a small private lake. Navigating a 28ft camper around is tight but manageable. Staff are friendly. To me, this reminds me of how camping was in my childhood, over 20 years ago. Negatives: it would appear the camp owners/hosts let family and friends setup tents in "commons" areas such as near the beach and water areas. This gives a slightly non campground, unprofessional feeling to this place. However, we enjoyed our 5 day stay with my daughter, and found it to be a friendly, family oriented campground.

For the most part I like rustic camping, tent on dirt no electric. What I don't like is the bathroom situation while rustic camping. Otter Lake is perfect because I can have a rustic camp site right next to the woods and a lake but their bathrooms are superb. Great shower and restroom facilities. It pretty average compared to most other campgrounds you'll visit in the U.P. besides how great the bathroom facilities are.

+ Updated clean bathrooms. + updated clean showers. + quiet secluded + basketball 🏀 + volleyball + boat rentals + fair price + laundry room + vending + friendly helpful staff - My site was a good size but a little tight getting out with 30 ft camper. Others were available. -no partial refund for leaving early Don't know about cancellation. Would recommend. Will visit again.

One of the best campgrounds I have stayed at. Staff is very friendly. It has a lot of activities to do- tetherball, volleyball, boat rental. Also have laundry facilities and pretty nice bathrooms. They have firewood available to buy there as well as ice. Definitely plenty to do. About ten minutes from town. I would definitely stay again

Great campground! My wife and I stayed for 4 nights over memorial day weekend 2017. The bathrooms and showers were great and very clean (and had actual hot water). It's a quick 10 minute drive to Munising and pictured rocks. If you're tenting like we did, I'd recommend requesting a spot on the overflow site. They are really private and still have electric hookups, and are near the lake.
