Surroundings
Châtillon-en-Diois
Located on the banks of the Bez River and surrounded by mountains and forests, this charming village is known for its charming medieval architecture, narrow, winding streets, and as a stop on the pilgrimage route to Santiago de Compostela. The village's rich history dates back to Roman times. Also, visit the local wineries and sample regional cuisine with specialties such as ravioli and Clairette de Die.
Discover regional specialties
Not to be confused with Italian ravioli, raviole is a specialty of the historic Dauphiné region. It dates back to Roman times. Saint-Marcellin is a soft, aged cheese that originated the town of Saint-Marcellin of the same name. The cheese is widely used in salads and goes well with a glass of Côtes du Rhône. And so there are many more delicacies that you really must taste.
Vercors Regional Park
Parc du Vercors, the regional natural park located above the campground, is a protected area covering more than 200,000 hectares. The park includes the Vercors massif, a rugged mountain range known for its gorges, limestone cliffs and high plateaus. With a diversity of flora and fauna, including rare species such as the griffon vulture, the ibex and the European beaver, Parc du Vercors is an ideal destination for beautiful hikes and bike rides. Discover the park's history and culture through museums, exhibitions and guided tours. The park is also known for its traditional agriculture and crafts, such as cheese making and wood carving, which have been preserved and celebrated by local communities for generations.
Explore the surroundings with the family
Just 20 km from the campsite you will find the medieval village of Crest. Climb Crest Castle, one of the highest medieval castles in France, for stunning views of the surroundings and interesting history. For an educational outing, visit "Jardin des Decouvertes," an interactive garden in Die, just 25 km from the campground. Here children learn about plants, insects, and other animals through various educational activities and workshops for children of all ages. For a fun and exciting activity in the Diois region, visit the Drôme Aventure adventure park just 10 km from the campground. The park offers various climbing routes and zip lines for children as young as 3 years old.

A very relaxing campground, with a superb view of the lake right in front of the mobile home. The pool is the right temperature, and the lake is also pleasantly warm for a lake!
The only real downside is fishing, which is allowed in the lake. We went swimming and paddleboarding, but you have to be constantly on the lookout to avoid getting … snagged by a fishing hook, which could injure someone or damage the paddleboard. We arrived on August 30, and there were already eight fishing rods around the lake—which is pretty impressive. I can’t even imagine what it’s like in peak season…
We were also a bit disappointed by the lack of activities, which seemed to have wrapped up by that time of year. We tried to go to the restaurant one evening around 7 p.m., but there was absolutely no one there, which led us to believe it was closed.
Aside from these few minor drawbacks, the stay was very pleasant. We really enjoyed the tranquility, the setting, and the view of the lake. The downsides are actually quite minor, and you really have to look hard to find them!
We had a wonderful stay and would love to come back. 😊this is a translation, click here for the original
Camping très reposant, avec une superbe vue sur le lac juste devant le mobil-home. La piscine est à bonne température, et la température du lac est également agréable pour un lac !
Le seul vrai bémol concerne la pêche, qui est autorisée dans le lac. Nous nous sommes baignés et avons fait du paddle, mais il faut constamment être vigilant pour ne pas se prendre un hameçon, qui pourrait blesser quelqu’un ou endommager le paddle. Nous sommes arrivés le 30 août et il y avait déjà 8 cannes à pêche autour du lac, ce qui est assez impressionnant. Je n’imagine même pas en pleine saison…
Nous avons également été un peu déçus par le manque d’animations, qui semblaient terminées à cette période. Nous avons voulu aller au restaurant un soir vers 19h, mais il n’y avait absolument personne, ce qui nous a laissé penser qu’il était fermé.
À part ces quelques petits points négatifs, le séjour a été très agréable. Nous avons vraiment apprécié le calme, le cadre et la vue sur le lac. Les points négatifs sont finalement assez minimes et il faut vraiment chercher pour les trouver !
Nous avons passé un très bon séjour et reviendrons avec plaisir. 😊 -

Very pleasant campground—really great. Beautiful lake, beautiful river
The activity leaders were very friendly, very energetic, and very welcoming; the activities were top-notch. Too bad about the slides— there wasn’t enough water to land in the lake
The bedding was terrible. But you don’t come to a campground to sleep well
The two … bartenders, on the other hand, were very disappointing—unfriendly, unpleasant, not a single smile—unlike the waiter and waitress, who were fantasticthis is a translation, click here for the original
Camping très agréable, très bien. Beau lac, belle rivière
Les animateurs très sympa, très dynamique, très accueillant les animations au top dommage que les toboggans, il n’y avait pas assez d’eau pour atterrir dedans le lac
La literie très mauvaises Mais on vient pas au camping pour bien dormir
Les deux barman, par contre très décevant, pas sympa, pas agréable, pas un sourire au contraire du serveur et de la serveuse au top -

We spent two nights in a camper van in late August
The site was decent, fairly spacious. But
This campground doesn't deserve its 4 stars.
Poorly maintained, dirty, trash on the ground everywhere
The restrooms were very dirty; the faucets were misaligned so the water ran all over the place, and the shower water was cold because the … system doesn’t let you adjust the temperature.
The restaurant’s menu isn’t bad, but the server was unpleasant. (We sensed a bad vibe among the staff.)
In short, the photos on their website don’t reflect reality.
I won’t be going back there.this is a translation, click here for the original
Partis deux nuits en van fin août
Emplacement correct , assez spacieux .Mais
Camping qui ne mérite pas ses 4 étoiles .
Mal entretenu , sales , déchets à terre , partout
Les sanitaires très sales , robinets mal orientés donc l'eau coule à côté , l'eau froide pour se doucher car le système fait qu'on ne peut pas choisir la température.
Le resto est pas mal côté menu mais serveur pas agréable .( On a senti une sale ambiance entre eux ) .
Bref les photos sur leur site ne reflètent pas la réalité .
Je n'y retournerai pas -

Beautiful place, pleasant campground—we’ll be back.
But there’s definitely room for improvement when it comes to shower hygiene....
Top-notch staff.
As always, the activity leaders were absolutely fantastic—thanks to Pêche, Manon, and Maé for taking care of our kids and keeping the energy high 🥰🥰this is a translation, click here for the original
Endroit magnifique, camping agréable on reviendra.
Mais des efforts+++ a faire sur l'hygiène des douches....
Équipe au top.
Animateurs comme d'habitude plus qu'au top merci a pêche, manon et maé de s'occuper de nos enfants et de mettre l'ambiance 🥰🥰 -

Beautiful view, but unfortunately our stay was disappointing. Several things in the cottage were broken, and it wasn’t very clean. At the restaurant, too, there were long wait times, and not everything on the menu was available. We politely reported our complaints, but unfortunately received no response or apology. Communication was difficult … because very little English was spoken. We assume the issues will be resolved, but for a 4-star campground, we clearly expected more.

Mooi uitzicht, maar helaas viel ons verblijf tegen. In het huisje waren meerdere dingen kapot en het was niet goed schoon. Ook in het restaurant waren er lange wachttijden en was niet alles van het menu beschikbaar. We hebben onze klachten netjes gemeld, maar kregen helaas geen reactie of excuses. De communicatie was lastig omdat er weinig Engels werd gesproken. We gaan ervan uit dat de problemen worden opgelost, maar voor een 4-sterrencamping hadden we duidelijk meer verwacht.

I have mixed feelings about our stay (15 days). The staff is very friendly, cheerful, and polite, which is really appreciated.
On the other hand, our site was particularly noisy. We were right next to the front desk, with a constant stream of golf carts and vacationers passing by right outside our mobile home. Cars were coming and going at all … hours. We even came back one night around 3 a.m. and were able to open the gate without any trouble. Some guests were also talking very loudly during the night.
We also encountered several issues inside the mobile home. The water heater kept freezing up, and the refrigerator had a hard time staying cold. We reported these problems via the app, but we never heard back. Finally, the box spring was really uncomfortable and, above all, extremely noisy. We didn’t even dare move in bed because it creaked and cracked so much. A technician came and simply placed a wedge under one of the box spring’s legs. Since the problem persisted, we pointed out the noise to him. He then told us he would have the bed frame replaced, but he never came back! In short, it was a very bad experience, and yet I’m not even a demanding person.this is a translation, click here for the original
Je suis assez mitigée concernant notre séjour (15 jours) Le personnel est très agréable, souriant et poli, ce qui est vraiment appréciable.
En revanche, notre emplacement était particulièrement bruyant. Nous étions situés juste à côté de l’accueil, avec un passage constant de voiturettes et de vacanciers à proximité immédiate du mobil-home. Les voitures entraient et sortaient à toute heure. Nous sommes même rentrés un soir vers 3h du matin et avons pu ouvrir la barrière sans aucune difficulté. Certains vacanciers parlaient également très fort durant la nuit.
Nous avons également rencontré plusieurs problèmes dans le mobil-home. Le chauffe-eau se bloquait régulièrement et le réfrigérateur avait beaucoup de mal à faire du froid. Nous avons signalé ces problèmes via l’application, mais nous n’avons eu aucun retour. Enfin, le sommier était vraiment très inconfortable et surtout extrêmement bruyant. Nous n’osions même plus bouger dans le lit tellement il grinçait et craquait. Un technicien est venu et a simplement placé une cale sous un pied du sommier. Le problème étant toujours présent, nous lui avons fait constater le bruit. Il nous a alors indiqué qu’il allait faire remplacer le sommier, mais il n’est jamais revenu! Bref c'est une très mauvaise expérience et pourtant je ne suis pas exigeante.
