Summary created out of 192 reviews
The park is appreciated for its staff, central location in Alsace and peaceful setting by a stream. Guests praise the nearby municipal swimming pool facility that is freely accessible. Key areas for improvement are the hygiene of sanitary facilities (often described as dirty and poorly maintained), inconsistent customer service, limited opening hours of bar and restaurant, and insufficient enforcement of campsite rules.

We came to the campground for the end of the season in September. We received a very warm welcome, and the welcome reception was very pleasant—it immediately put us in the Alsatian spirit. The owners seem to have big hearts; a little round of applause for them—wishing you both a well-deserved retirement. We can’t comment on the entertainment, but … the peace and quiet are remarkable. The restrooms were very clean, as were the campground’s surroundings. The municipal pool was also very inviting. It was a week of total relaxation and immersion in the heritage of this beautiful region. We’ll be back… Thank you for the warm welcome, Alsatians ❤️🥰
