FAQs
Question
Where do I go to check in for camping?
Answer
When you drive into the resort, there will either be someone right when you pull into the property to check you in and give you directions, or you will drive in and go left to the first large building (camp office) to check in. There should be signs! the map of a campground can be found on their website to also help with instructions! https://odetah.com/resort-map/
Question
Where do I go if I am not camping and just attending the Party on 6/7?
Answer
There will be signs to help guide you where to park and where the party will be! (potentially more information around this will be added as we near the date).
Question
Can I come to the camping resort during the day (6/7) to hang out even if I am not staying over?
Answer
YES! Odetah will let visitors come all day and use all the amenities. Please come as early as you want on Saturday to hang with the group and get the party started early! This goes for all guests staying in the hotel or only camping Saturday night as well - come as early as you want before you check into your hotel or to set up your camp and hang out before hotel check-in and the start of the party! (please note if you are staying at the campground and are NOT in safari field, you will need to abide by their check-in times)
Question
If I want to rent an RV, how does that work?
Answer
Every RV rental website and person renting their RV is different. If you are looking at trailers, ensure the person who owns the trailer offers drop off and pick up. If you are looking at RVs/Vans - many will allow you to pick then up and drive where you want to go as an option. Please check with Matt or Carly before booking any RV rentals to ensure there are spots open on Safari Field! If you plan on bringing your pet - ensure they are allowed with the person you are renting your RV from. Please see "What I should bring?" later in the FAQs for more information on planning. Matt and Carly will plan to bring some extra essentials, we got you! If there are any questions - PLEASE ask Carly or Matt.

We also will see what we can do if the weather forecast is not in our favor the week of - to try and get some more hotel rooms blocked off!

Question
What should I wear for the party and the wekeend?
Answer
Really, whatever you want and will be comfortable in! But in case you need more direction than that - We suggest nothing formal; sundresses for women and a polo with slacks for men is the DRESSIEST. Jeans and a T-shirt is perfectly fine with us :) There are hills on the property (not in the field area though) and we will be on grass most of the time so comfy shoes like sneakers or flat sandals are suggested. For the rest of the weekend, its all casual! Please know things might get dirty while camping! Be sure to bring a bathing suit as the pool is beautiful! Sweatshirts and sweatpants (layers) at night are always smart as well.
