Clean, close to home, secluded. Love the water. So many things to do there. Great for boating, canoeing, and kayaks. Wildlife is abundant here. People fish here all the time. In boats or from the shore. Camping is reasonable, and they have electric hook up. And water. Also a bathroom.

It was really fun we stayed for 4 days the lake is really nice especially on hot days though I would really look on where you set up camp because if you dont get a shadey spot your tent will become a heated mess and there are outlets which is pretty nice the bathrooms smell awful and there are at least 2 water pumps but overall its a good place

Writing as a touring cyclist (July 2020). Camp ground is along beautiful Lake Odessa. All campsite had full shade by 5:30pm. All campsites have a fire ring, picnic table, and electric hookup. Water is available on site. All for $12 per night. Campground was quiet during the week. Vault toilets were relatively clean. Bugs weren't too bad, but I'd still recommend bringing bug spray.

Great spot for a quick trip no showers ,bathroom is an outhouse but didn’t smell during this hot summer trip. The paddling was good. All the islands had flooded so we got to float in a lot of places you normally wouldn’t. Great Time

Mosquitoes were terrible however spot #31 & 30 are the best spots to have with children. It's in a wooded corner with less traffic for safety. A camper would be more ideal
