★★★★Katie GengnagelWe rent the Otterbein lodge for a stitching retreat. Bathrooms are very tight but enjoyed our time.
★★★★★Note ShiraIts been a few years since I've been there, but during the time I was there, I absolutely loved it. I highly recommend this place to send your kids. They have so many things to do when it comes to drama stuff. I've learned stuff about filming, photography and acting. It is amazing there, and I can guarantee your child/children will get inspiration for what they want to do in life.
★★★★★Katie SwisherSo thankful for my daughter's time at Camp Rivervale! She loved every minute of it! The grounds are beautiful and the facility is really well-kept. The staff was amazing, and so helpful when it came time to drop off and pickup. We will definitely be returning!
★★★★★Scott GoodmanLove love love Camp Rivervale! My boys have camped there quite a few times, and I have also stayed as a councillor! Pam and Steve are wonderful people who love kids!
★★★Beth CopelandI work a camp that has been going there for several years. It's rustic, but the new cabins they've added are a great addition. The staff is very nice and helpful. The food is what you'd expect from a camp.
