Summary created out of 245 reviews
The park is beautifully located on the Saône with spacious, shaded pitches and friendly staff who warmly welcome guests. The location is ideal for cycling trips along the voie bleue and visits to the adjacent swimming pool. Guests appreciate the peaceful atmosphere, canoeing opportunities, and regular entertainment and events. Areas for improvement include the sanitary facilities which some find outdated and not always clean, the swimming pool which is regularly closed, and occasional noise disturbance from events or groups of young people.

Clean campground
—it’s very hard to find the pitch numbers... the map is way too small
. There’s a restaurant next door called “Le Papa Loco,” and luckily, since it was the last day of the season, there was a musician performing and a moulinade
. Clean restrooms with toilet seats and toilet paper.this is a translation, click here for the original
camping propre
numéro des emplacements très difficile a trouver ...plan beaucoup trop petit
il y a un restaurant a côté le papa loco ou par chance comme nous etions le dernier jour de la saison il y avait un musicien et une moulinade
sanitaires propres avec planche et papier -

We stayed for a night and a half in a trailer. The staff was very friendly. There was a pool and a playground... my little girl loved it. I recommend this quiet little spot on the banks of the Saône.

💬 Feedback and suggestions regarding the campground
Hello,
We recently arrived at the campground and found that the map provided upon arrival is quite difficult to understand.
While writing this review, we also saw several people—especially motorcyclists—struggling to find their way using that same map. This shows that the … problem isn’t limited to our site but may also affect other guests.
It would be helpful to make the map clearer and easier to read, particularly by highlighting the site numbers more clearly and adding visual cues.
For example, installing signs that clearly indicate the different zones and site numbers (40 → 60, etc.) would make it much easier to find one’s site.
Another issue is that some sites—particularly certain tents—do not appear to have clearly visible numbers, which makes finding them even more difficult.
We’d also like to report a problem with Tent No. 60, in the room with two beds. When it rains, the roof seems to trap and accumulate water. We have to use a broom to push the water off the roof so it can drain away. It would therefore be important to inspect the structure and find a solution to prevent water from pooling on the roof like this.
We therefore believe that improving the signage, the map, and certain facilities would be very helpful for new arrivals and would enhance the comfort and experience of vacationers.
Thank you for taking the time to read this comment. We hope it will help improve the campground for future visitors.this is a translation, click here for the original
💬 Avis et suggestions concernant le camping
Bonjour,
Nous sommes récemment arrivés au camping et nous avons constaté que le plan fourni à notre arrivée est assez difficile à comprendre.
En rédigeant cet avis, nous avons également vu plusieurs personnes, notamment des motards, galérer à se repérer avec ce même plan. Cela montre que le problème ne concerne pas uniquement notre emplacement, mais peut également toucher d’autres vacanciers.
Il serait intéressant de rendre le plan plus clair et plus facile à lire, notamment en indiquant davantage les numéros des emplacements et en ajoutant des repères visuels.
Par exemple, installer des panneaux indiquant clairement les différentes zones et les numéros d’emplacements (40 → 60, etc.) permettrait de retrouver beaucoup plus facilement son emplacement.
Le problème est également que certains emplacements, notamment certaines tentes, ne semblent pas avoir de numéro clairement visible, ce qui complique encore davantage la recherche.
Nous souhaitons également signaler un problème concernant la tente n°60, dans la chambre avec deux couchages. Lorsqu’il pleut, le toit semble retenir et accumuler de l’eau. Nous sommes obligés de prendre un balai et de pousser le toit afin de faire évacuer l’eau accumulée. Ce serait donc important de vérifier l’installation et de trouver une solution pour éviter que l’eau ne reste ainsi sur le toit.
Nous pensons donc qu’une amélioration de la signalétique, du plan et de certaines installations serait vraiment utile pour les nouveaux arrivants et permettrait d’améliorer le confort et l’expérience des vacanciers.
Merci d’avoir pris le temps de lire cette remarque. Nous espérons qu’elle pourra contribuer à améliorer le camping pour les prochains visiteurs. -

I loved it—everything was clean, organized, and quiet. It really has a very family-friendly atmosphere. Actually, the only thing I think is worth considering is the check-in at 3 p.m. and check-out at 10 a.m. In my opinion, 10 a.m. is too early, especially if you’re on vacation or time off. Other than that, I loved the facilities.
Another … thing that I think could be improved is the issue with the floodlight—it really disturbs your sleep, and sometimes you wake up in the middle of the night wanting to look at nature and the night sky, but the floodlight is right there. I don’t know if it’s a safety issue, but in my opinion, a dimmer light 💡 would have been enough and more pleasant. But that’s just my opinion—I’m new to camping ⛺️, so I’m not really sure.this is a translation, click here for the original
Je adorée , tout bien propre , organiser , calme . Ce vraiment un ambiance très familiale. En fait la seule chose que a mon avis ce a réfléchir, ce le checkin a 15h et le Checkout a 10h à mon avis 10h ce trop tôt , surtout se on es en vacances ou congé . A part ça je adorée les installations.
Un autre chose que a mon avis ça pouvais améliorer, ce la question du réflecteur, ça gène beaucoup pour dormir , et par fois on réveille dans la nuit on veut regarder la nature , et la nuit , et le réflecteur es la . Je sais pas ce ce une question de sécurité, mais a mon avis , la lumière 💡 moins fort , ce été suffisant et plus agréable. Mais ça ce que mon avis, je viens de commencer avec le camping ⛺️, je sais pas trop. -
