Camp Otterdale

Summer Address:

   Lombardy, Ontario, Canada
   Show Phone #

205 acres centrally located between Ottawa and Kingston along the shores, woods and fields of beautiful Otter Lake.

Camp Otterdale is owned and directed by Jeff and Sue Brown who take part in the daily operations and are actively involved with staff, camper-care and the activity program. Camp Otterdale’s philosophy promotes physical activity, personal achievement, respect of self, others and our environment. Otterdale has “green” initiatives and campers and staff re-use, recycle and reduce paper, food and metal waste in a well-established recycling program. We are delighted to see our campers return year after year. We have had the pleasure of awarding “10-year blankets” to more than a dozen campers and our coveted “5 year paddles” to hundreds more over the past 13 summers!
