I have used this campground for over 40 years and it has always been a good place to camp. The huckleberry bushes between camp sites provide privacy and in the fall ripe huckleberries.
However for those with boats the boat ramp is so bad it is almost hazardous to use. The slope into the water is uneven and steep due to boats powering onto their trailer and blowing the gravel out creating a deep hole. Retrieving you boat can be very difficult.

We loved being close to the lake as well as the many trails in the area. Campers were respectful of quiet hours. We camped during the week and not sure that it would be as quiet on the weekends.

The spaces are a good size. Plus they’re fairly level. We enjoyed our stay very much. It was also nice having the water close by to bring it back to the site.

Very quiet. Nice forest setting. We arrived Sunday afternoon but the garbage was overflowing until it was emptied Tuesday morning.

Everything was great. Good host quiet experience. The only negative thing was the road around the campground is in serious need of repair. It has been bad for several years and is getting worse. It would be great if the problem was addressed. Thank you.

Good place to stay. Sites were well spaced and private, but on the small side. Very quiet. Good access to forest and wilderness areas, but not much lake access without a boat. Cell service is very spotty on Verizon, but can be picked up near the boat ramp.

The campground was just like it was 30 years ago when we last visited. It's very shady and difficult to use solar to charge anything so you will hear generators running all day. The boat ramp is a busy place and difficult to access as it's really the only lake access for kids to play in the water. Huge pot holes on the road in and inside the campground. While we were there the best spots on the lake were empty most of the time but you can't have one due to the very confusing and difficult to use website. In fact the best sites on the lake don't even show up on the campground map but they'er always reserved. Some sites are ok some are really bad with no privacy and if your down wind from the outhouses it smells. Also there is no grey water dump or a fish cleaning station . In my opinion the amount being charged should cover some regular maintenance to this aging facility. Please bring it up to par.

Campground is in a heavily forested section on the northwest shore of Odell Lake. Great spacing between sites with lots of privacy. Only drawback to this campground is the train running near it. Campground entrance is not well marked of the main road with no signage. Worth the effort. Great place if you can find it.
