De Otter

Recreatiecentrum De Otter sits directly on the shore of the Schildmeer in Steendam, province of Groningen. The property spans 10 hectares, with 4 hectares dedicated to camping across a total of 150 pitches — a mix of permanent and touring spots.

Hardened pitches are available for campers and motorhomes, and bungalows and mobile homes can also be rented. The spacious layout allows guests to choose between sunny and shaded positions.

The site includes a restaurant, beach pavilion, and marina, making it a natural base for watersports on the Schildmeer. Cycling and hiking are equally popular, with bike-charging points on the terrace and access to the surrounding Groningen countryside.

Children have both the lake and on-site play equipment at their disposal. The campground is open from 1 April to 15 October.
