Summary created out of 474 reviews
The park is appreciated for its friendly and helpful staff, who often assist guests in multiple languages. The sanitary facilities are modern, clean and well-maintained, though they can feel undersized during busy periods. The location is ideal for visiting Lyon or as a stopover while travelling, with a bus stop at the entrance and easy access from the motorway. Guests praise the spacious, shaded pitches and the peaceful atmosphere, although some note that evening lighting is sparse and certain areas can become muddy after rain.

Stay away unless you like listening to highway noise to help you fall asleep. The other guests show no respect—they blast music and yell late into the night. The showers are pretty cramped, and there are very few restrooms.

Fuyez sauf si vous écoutez des bruits d’autoroute pour vous endormir. Aucun respect de la part des autres clients qui mettent la musique à fond et hurlent à des heures tardives. Les douches sont assez étroites, il y a très peu de WCs.

For the price, you'd expect a little more—or rather, we used to get more for less money... It's sufficient, though, and the design is extremely simple...

We used the campground as a stopover on our trip.
The campground itself is fine. It’s conveniently located if you’re just passing through. It’s also well-situated for a visit to Lyon.
There are buses nearby.
There’s also a large supermarket and places to eat nearby.
It has a lot of trees, which makes the site seem a little dark, … especially in October.
The sites are a decent size if, like us, you have a motorhome that isn’t too big. (van)
The only downside was that the power connections were sometimes a bit far away. I always carry a 25-meter reel and an additional 20-meter extension cord. That’s usually enough—and it was here, too. But I had to run the cord past the front of neighboring sites. Well, I have a sturdy Lapp cable that you can even drive over with the RV, but it’s not ideal to always have to run over other people’s cables. And there were also campers who had to run their cable across the path to the other side to reach an outlet.
The restrooms were okay. They were clean and standard. The entire campground was clean, too.
You can get baguettes, croissants, and coffee in the morning.
There’s also a small restaurant, but we didn’t visit it.
I’d definitely recommend the campground—especially as a stopover. But I’d have to check it out in the summer to see if I’d want to spend a longer vacation there.this is a translation, click here for the original
Wir nutzten den Platz als Etappenziel für unsere Reise.
Der Platz ist an und für sich in Ordnung. Wenn man durchreist, liegt er günstig. Ist auch gut gelegen für einen Besuch in Lyon.
Es gibt Busse in der Nähe.
Zudem sind ein großer Supermarkt und Essmöglichkeiten in der Nähe.
Es hat viele Bäume und dadurch wirkt der Platz gerade im Oktober ein wenig dunkel.
Die Parzellen sind von der Größe ganz o.k., wenn man wie wir ein Wohnmobil hat, was nicht so groß ist. (Kastenwagen)
Dumm war nur, dass die Stromanschlüsse je nach dem etwas weit entfernt waren. Ich habe immer eine 25m Rolle und ein zusätzliches 20m Verlängerungskabel dabei. Das reicht meistens. So auch hier. Aber ich musste das Kabel an benachbarten Parzellen vorne vorbei legen. Gut, ich habe ein ordentliches Lapp-Kabel, wo man auch mit dem Wohnmobil drüber fahren kann, aber schön ist es nicht, immer über fremde Kabel laufen zu müssen. Und es gab auch Camper, die Ihr Kabel über den Weg auf die andere Seite legen mussten, um an eine Steckdose zu kommen.
Die Sanitärs waren so weit in Ordnung. Sie waren sauber und Standard. Auch der ganze Platz war sauber.
Man kann morgens Baguett, Croissants und Kaffee bekommen.
Und ein kleines Restaurant gibt es auch. Haben wir aber nicht besucht.
Ich würde den Platz schon empfehlen. Gerade als Etappenziel. Aber ob ich länger dort Urlaub machen würde, müsste ich mal im Sommer prüfen. -

Not really the best choice for a camping vacation, though.this is a translation, click here for the original
Top. Zweckmässiger Platz um Lyon zu besuchen.
Um Campingurlaub zu machen eher nicht.
