    We stayed at the campground from August 30 to September 4, 26. It’s in a beautiful location right on the Drau River. Small and cozy, it’s ideal for people looking for peace and quiet. The sites are very large, though not separated by hedges. Next door is a sports field where people practiced every day. However, it’s very quiet and doesn’t bother … you at all. The restroom facilities are very well-maintained. Just outside the campground, there’s a grocery store and several restaurants. There are endless hiking and biking opportunities in this area. We can’t recommend this little campground highly enough and will definitely be back ourselves.

    Wir waren vom 30.8.-4.9.26 auf dem Platz. Er ist sehr schön gelegen direkt an der Drau. Klein und Gemütlich,ideal für Leute die Ruhe suchen. Die Parzelle sind sehr groß,jedoch nicht durch Hecken getrennt. Nebenan ist ein Sportplatz auf dem jeden Tag trainiert wurde. Was aber sehr ruhig abläuft und absolut nicht stört. Die Sanitäranlagen sind sehr gepflegt. Außerhalb gibt es einen Lebensmittelladen und mehrere Restaurants. Wander und Radfahrgelegenheiten gibt es in dieser Gegend ohne Ende. Wir können diesen kleinen Platz einfach nur weiter empfehlen und kommen sicher selbst wieder.

    Jeden z najlepszych campingów na jakie trafiliśmy podróżując rowerami szlakiem Drawy. Jest bardzo spokojny, nie jest zbyt drogi, w pobliżu znajdują się co najmniej 2 dobre restauracje (cena posiłku 15-20e) i sklep (był zamknięty - huczne otwarcie pojutrze). Ogromną zaletą jest "świetlica" umiejscowiona ponad recepcją i sanitariatami - wspaniałe … miejsce w trakcie niepogody i nie tylko. Stół do ping-ponga, zabawki dla dzieci i dużo miejsca - wszystko w drewnie. Okolica bardzo malownicza, do większego miasteczka Moellbruecke jest ok. 4km - tam jest dobra pizzeria koło campingu, jest Lidl i wiele innych sklepów.
