This place is absolutely amazing! The staff is incredibly friendly and welcoming, making you feel right at home from the moment you arrive. For such a beautiful historic lodge, it's exceptionally clean and wonderfully maintained. The beach access is unbeatable--perfect for fishing, boating, swimming, or simply relaxing while the kids play in the waves. The location is ideal for every kind of adventure, whether you're biking, hiking, exploring the water, or just slowing down and soaking in the scenery. We can't wait to come back! read more

Odell Lake Lodge & Resort - Kids enjoying everything the lodge has to offer, including 3D toys. - Hotels Near Me - Crescent, Oregon

Odell's was the most amazing place to stay during my PCT hike. I was very comfortable, cared for and well fed. The room at the lodge was the perfect mix of cozy-meets-modern. Staff were so kind to me and catered to my unique thru-hiker needs. They even shuttled me around because I was traveling on foot! This was the PERFECT place to recover after being caught in a multi-day snow storm on the mountain. The owners are outdoor enthusiasts, so they are genuinely interested in helping everyone enjoy the outdoors. Very hiker friendly! Great atmosphere. Caring staff. Cozy rooms. Stunning views. Delicious food. Cute gift shop. Roaring fires. Fair prices. Live music. I was able to get the rest I needed and to get all of my things prepared to continue on my PCT adventure. I was treated like family. I felt like I was in Heaven. Unforgettable. read more

Although the staff was very friendly, the room they put us in was absolutely filthy with holes in the sheets, the portable fan was filthy. There were no tables to place anything on. The Windows had large cracks in them and the screens had holes in them as well. We would have immediately checked out, but it was unfortunately the last room they had and no place else to go. Really bad experience but for the fact it was a beautiful location. Not a place I would recommend. They really need to bring their standards up. read more

Had a wonderful Cesar Salad & top it off with the Marionberry Cobbler ala mode! Beautiful view & wonderful service! Get away & treat yourself! read more

Odell Lake Lodge & Resort - Pretty dock to sit & relax... - Hotels Near Me - Crescent, Oregon

The nearby campgrounds we were targeting were closed for the season, so we turned around and headed back to Odell hoping they had a spot. Happy accident! Warm lodge, lovely cabins, and nice camping spots along the lake. We ended up grabbing a spot and heading to the lodge for both dinner and breakfast the next morning. They definitely have a family atmosphere...super friendly and welcoming. The food was good and the views beautiful. read more

Amazing amazing amazing!!! Liz is the absolute best! They have a fantastic restaurant and the staff is the best around

I came here for my birthday weekend. It was the PERFECT getaway! The staff is extremely kind and helpful. We stayed in the Lake House cabin which had a beautiful, yet, "at-home" feel to it and is tucked away privately away from everyone else. Its so quiet, and the views of the lake from the living room and master bedroom are epic. I enjoyed sitting inside by the fire and watching outside, it was so peaceful. We ate at the lodge, the food was so yummy. We loved the soups and bread. Perfect after being in the snow. Wes did a phenomenal job serving our table. We also went on a guided snowmobile tour. Candice was our guide and she did fantastic. She made our adventure so much fun!! My cheeks hurt after because I was laughing and smiling so much. We will DEFINITELY be back!!! Thanks again for our beautiful stay!!! read more

You want to go!! Quaint historical lodge located in a beautiful setting with incredible views. You will be surprised by how good the food is since you're in the middle of the woods. On the menu tonight, we had the best chicken corn chowder we've ever had, an amazing Authentic Italian style lasagna, and marionberry cobbler. It was super delicious. Portions are large, and prices are great. We also loved our super friendly wait staff. We left with full bellies and big smiles on our faces. Do yourself a favor and eat here. You can also rent a cabin, enjoy water sports, take a hike, and visit nearby waterfalls. It's 5 stars for sure! read more

I have just had an enjoyable weekend at the Odell lake lodge and resort. This was chosen as the venue for my daughter's wedding and it turned out to be a great success. Bruce, who is the new owner, has a solid staff that was accommodating and available to our whims of change. Special shout out to Jack and Liz. The movers and shakers that kept this wedding and reception flowing carefree for all guests. It rained before and after the wedding and they took care of table coverages and continued on with dinner services. For our personal wants for privacy, we rented all campsites, lodge rooms and cabins for this wedding. The restaurant food at the lodge was great. Well served with indoor and outdoor dining. That, while sitting with cocktails, the view of the lake, was memorable. Thank you Bruce and your entire staff. Rob Father of the bride read more

Odell Lake is an incredibly serene and peaceful place, home to spectacular trees and impeccable scenery. It is an expanse dedicated to preserving the finest that Oregon offers. It had been about a decade since I stayed here. I didn't have a poor experience way back when, but this recent experience was far superior. Candice and Bruce are the new owners, and they provided me with a truly wonderful trip. They were hustling for the entirety of my multi-day stay, and always doing it in a kind and respectful way. I'm especially fond of their aligned teamwork, and witnessing how they would uplift and speak good of each other when the other was not around. I observed frequent tidying and cleaning, and everything smelled fresh. They happily rearranged furniture to accommodate larger groups when needed. The rooms have undergone some noticeable upgrades, with cozy modernization. I stayed during a time where about 2 feet of snow fell within a very short period of time. I drive a Toyota Corolla, so my ground clearance is abysmal. They had a truck plow the entry road and lot, so aside from me getting stuck once briefly, I was still able to travel safely and freely. They also offered to help me, let me borrow their windshield scraper/brush/snow shovel, and allowed me a 1-hour late checkout. The food prices were very reasonable and with generous portions. Everything was freaking delicious, but the rib eye, Caesar salad, and Gouda breakfast sandwich were my favorites. They were very casual about me taking food and drink from the restaurant up to my room. I also witnessed Bruce custom-make food for a guest who wanted something that wasn't on the menu. Candice was such a sweet and terrific host. She let me use the hot tub on a day where that cabin was vacant, invited me to play Scrabble in the lodge, took me for a ride on the fancy snow tractor, and indulged my wanting to love on their adorable little doggies. Really, the flexibility and graciousness of the owners and staff was very much apparent, and I overheard other guests sharing their own stories and echoing my sentiments as well. I'll definitely be going back. read more

Great lodging experience. Affordable prices at the restaurant and boat rental at the lake. Thank you!

Such a beautiful place, and the new owners are just the nicest people! Great food that's not a rip-off (you gotta try the fish and chips), clean and well maintained, and the guided sledding tour was a core memory for the kiddos for sure read more

This lake is absolutely beautiful, and we have had fun a few times we have went. The lodge is okay....customer service in restaurant could be improved. We stayed in a room. It was okay-not super clean. The biggest issue is that we had to cancel our reservation for Christmas. We called to request refund (They charge a 25.00 'fee') and their "process" is - "We will send out a check"...2nd time I called, 3 weeks later when I didn't receive refund check, they said "give it more time"....We are now 5-6 weeks and no check...called again and they said the "mail is only picked up every 2 weeks"...Still should have received it. Called again and they admitted "there are new owners and the check was sitting there NOT SIGNED by the owners". They owe my friends 551.00 and us 375.00. Oregon Law states they have TEN days to refund deposit otherwise we are entitled to double the amount. IF I don't see the check by next Friday I will be filing a claim through DOJ. read more

We just didn't want to leave. This place was awesome. It's beautiful, it's fun, and the service is fantastic. We're trying to figure out when we can get back. Super fun getaway! read more

This is a gorgeous property with cozy cabins, really kind staff, and a great restaurant! It was the perfect basecamp for my fiancé and I to explore the area for a long weekend. It's close enough to Crater Lake to do a day trip there but honestly, there's so much to see and do at the resort itself you might not want to leave. read more

We stopped here for lunch on our way back to Eugene. Good restaurant. Jenny was very friendly and did a great job with our menu orders. The chef prepared excellent food: The chicken sandwich, small side salad, and the soup of the day were very tasty. THE FRENCH FRIES WERE EXCELLENT! Well worth getting off the highway 58 here to eat. read more

I drove down from Waldo Lake to see if I could rent a life jacket (forgot mine). Sierra, you're the best - she trusted me to return it in two days! Wow, really? I observed other folks interacting with the owners and saw how accommodating everyone at this resort is. So nice. Camp spots right next to the water are coveted in the camping world, and this place has them. I saw that and immediately booked a site. I had the wind in my hair, a fabulous view of the lake and the sound of the waves lapping the shore throughout the night. Loved it. It was a short visit and I didn't eat in their lovely rustic lodge but I heard the food was good. Thank you for helping me out and giving me a great experience. read more

My family and I had the absolute pleasure of staying at Odell Lake Lodge for two nights last month. We had such a great time, and even though we were there for a wedding we were able to explore enough to know that we can't wait to come back. Our first night, Liz was kind enough to loan us a loaf pan from the kitchen so we could make some banana bread. We felt very taken care of by Jas, who served us breakfast twice during our stay, one of the times of which was very busy, and she handled it all flawlessly. Right before we checked out, we had the pleasure of meeting the owner. He was so kind and really just solidified our experience. Right when we arrived, we immediately got nothing but great vibes from this place, and our experience staying there proved our first impression to be true, cannot wait to come back! read more

My family had a fantastic stay. Bruce and Jack were wonderful. They were so helpful and accommodating to our group. We rented a pontoon boat and it was the best time ever cruising around Odell Lake.

Amazing sites and gorgeous views! The staff was SO kind and accommodating. We will definitely be staying here again!!

THIS PLACE IS PHENOMENAL! We absolutely adored the room, the view, the lake, and of course; the amazing food and service! this place is a must stay. So many fun activities to do such as boating, fishing, guided fishing, sight seeing and relaxing in their comfortable living area. One more night here and will definitely be coming again. We drove 5+ hours to get here and have enjoyed every second! read more

Such nice people. Very accommodating to all of our requests. The food in the restaurant was very good.

I haven't been to the snow in over 20 years and was so relieved to have had a fabulous stay at the lodge. The new owners were fabulous! They and the staff went above and beyond to help my clients have the winter wedding they dreamed to have. This lodge is perfect for that small intimate elopement/wedding. They accommodated 30+ guests effortlessly Keep in mind that this is an old lodge and perhaps a bit dated, but that is what adds to the charm of this place. You'll love the cozy warmth of the lodge room with its big wood burning fireplace, comfy/cozy couches and fabulous view of the lake, a great spot to hang out with your family and friends after a long day of play. Plus, you cannot beat that it sits on a beautiful lake and wow! It is gorgeous in winter! Because of this place, I actually enjoyed the snow! I hope to come back and add photos (we just returned home an hour ago:) because this is a winter wonderland! read more

This was a great place to stay with lovely cabins and wonderful staff. Scott is a fabulous chef and delightful concierge.

Odell Lake Lodge & Resort - Taking a carriage ride!!!! - Hotels Near Me - Crescent, Oregon

We ate at the restaurant in the lodge. We were the only people there. The hostess was also the waitress as well as the cook and she was THE best! My friend can't eat cheese and the lady offered to find her a portobello mushroom and grill it for her to make a burger out of it, even if it wasn't on the menu. She added some guacamole and garlic, delicious! And I had a regular burger with fries. The burger was ok. The fries were greasy and limp. I am the most impressed with her service, going the extra mile to make something suitable for my friend for (late) lunch. The lodge itself now starting to show its age and wear and tear. It sure needs some love and care. Not the cleanest in places. Not a place I would like to overnight in. But some of the cute cabins around the lake look much more inviting, if you are into solitude. However, if you want excitement, you are in the wrong place! And Verizon service has just one sporadic bar service. T-Mobile has none, there is no wifi.... read more

The food is terrible. Go to Walmart, buy a package of fish and deep fat fry it. Get a bag of salad and cover it in generic ranch. That's essentially the quality. Our server was solo and doing almost everything and seemed like she was kind of done with customer service for the day. On the other hand, front desk staff when we paid the bill was friendly and there was a roaring fire in a very cozy room to just go chill in. The Clydesdales were fun to look at and let us pet them. It's rural and kind of remote so you get what you get and you don't throw a fit. Go for the rustic experience and convenience if you're hungry at lunch time. read more

5 stars even though not a 5 star resort. Beautiful lake setting... The place has a resteraunt, lodge rooms, cabins, and campgrounds. I first stayed in the campground for 5 nights and its appropriately priced at 14 to 20 dollars per site. The sunsets can be amazing. The resteraunt makes a great breakfast and the staff is helpful. The mosquitos can be a bit much so bring long sleeves and deet in the summer. If you are a fisherman this place has loads of koakane and some big mackinaws. Back in the 1980s there was a fun early video game called Odell Lake where you were a big fish that would attack other fish... The game was set on this lake. Rustic feeling but still relatively refined and adequately priced. Will be back. 5 stars!! read more

Stayed at the Lodge recently and had a blast! The staff was super friendly and helpful and great hosts. The room had comfortable beds with cozy blankets. There was a view of the gorgeous lake. Floors are hardwood and there was a wall heater in the room and bathroom. Bathroom had awesome hot water! Updated decor. Room was clean, as was the rest of the lodge. The TV had Dish network. Internet signal was really the best down in the living room, which was actually awesome (to unplug). The dining room has a nice fireplace and plenty of menu options. The food was great and we ate it all! The Lodge living room has a huge fireplace, plenty of seating, and games and puzzles along with a TV. This was the area with best WiFi signal if you need it. We went horseback riding and our guide, John was awesome. John was the cook and the host and the entertainment! (It was a slow few days as season had changed). There is tons to do and nature all around. Totally recommend and we will be back! read more

We had a fabulous weekend at Odell Lake Lodge! This place is a hidden secret! It has both small rustic cabins as well as larger newer cabins. Each give you a different perspective and feel.

Odell lake is absolutely worth a visit for resting during the day or camping for a night or two. Safe, clean & not a tourist trap. I was pointed towards Odell lake by locals who suggested it as a place to see between Crater Lake and Portland. There aren't many hiking trails, but there is fishing and boating. You could also stop by just to read a book by the lake and enjoy the view. Looking at some of the previous reviews, I don't understand the expectation for a Four Seasons type of experience. If you're looking for an amazing short term camp site with access to a beautiful lake, this is the spot. The staff is very kind and helpful, I showed up at nearly 9pm on the first night and they helped me out before closing - definitely a better experience than a State or County park. read more

Came up here with a group of friends before a wedding that we were going to just out of Eugene OR. Before I go any further however, this is the first time this Australian has ever been to a place like this. I've probably spent a combined total of traveling the United States from Australia for six months over the past 7 years, normally staying at the "traditional" style hotel but never in the great outdoors. I must admit it was a pretty cool experience, made better by visiting this place with a group of my American friends to enhance the "real" cabin experience. As the old saying goes "location location location", and they couldn't be closer to the truth with this place. It was amazing with the views of the lake in the forest and the snowy mountains backdrop. The cabin wasn't spotless, however I looked passed that due to the country based cabin it was. In saying that, the kitchen, bathrooms & bed were pretty clean. There was pre-chopped would at your disposal for the wood fire inside or if you wanted to cook hotdogs on the bbq. One thing you must watch out for is the shallow boat launch pad and the millions of mosquitoes that want to suck you dry (we were there early July). But I did love this place and would definitely want to go back and maybe bring some of my Australian mates to experience this true American cabin lifestyle. read more

Well unfortunately my family had a horrible experience with the snowmobile rentals where we waited more to check in and checkout that we rode them. The staff didn't handle well how to welcome and prepare the equipment to us to start on time. Didn't explain the route rules either and how to get around the park so we ended up getting into the wrong path. At the checkout the people took an hour to check the mileage and gas spent on our ride which impacted the next group to start their booking considerably. I would not recommend this place to anyone. Very poor service and honesty. read more
