    Beautiful lake, but the campground is an absolute disaster:
    :We had actually booked two nights at this campground, but were so deeply disappointed that we left after just one night. First, the one positive thing: The lake is truly beautiful and absolutely invites you to linger. Unfortunately, that’s about it. The campground itself is in terrible condition. Of the two restroom facilities, one was completely closed. The only alternative was a simple portable toilet. Anyone who wanted to take a shower first had to cross half the park—extremely long walks! Another huge problem was the broken gate. As a result, there was heavy car traffic on the grounds well into the night. Unfortunately, no one here cares about the legal quiet hours: there was a loud party going on until 1:30 a.m. None of the staff takes responsibility for this, since there’s simply no one on site at night and no one bothers to come check that everything is in order.The reason for this state of disrepair became clear to us when we looked inside the reception area: There’s a large master plan hanging there showing that the campground is to be completely converted into log cabins (chalets). That probably also explains why nothing is being invested in or repaired here anymore. There are barrier fences and dilapidated buildings everywhere. Absolutely not recommended for traditional campers. A huge disappointment!

    Schöner See, aber der Campingplatz ist eine absolute Katastrophe:
    :Wir hatten eigentlich zwei Nächte auf diesem Campingplatz gebucht, sind aber tief enttäuscht bereits nach einer Nacht wieder abgereist. Das einzig Positive vorweg: Der See ist wirklich wunderschön und lädt absolut zum Verweilen ein. Das war es dann aber leider auch schon.Der Campingplatz selbst ist in einem katastrophalen Zustand. Von zwei Sanitäranlagen war eine komplett geschlossen. Als Ersatz diente lediglich ein einfacher Toilettencontainer. Wer duschen wollte, musste erst einmal den halben Park durchqueren – extrem weite Wege!Ein weiteres riesiges Problem war die defekte Schranke. Dadurch herrschte bis tief in die Nacht reger Autoverkehr auf dem Platz. Um die gesetzliche Nachtruhe schert sich hier leider niemand: Bis um 01:30 Uhr nachts wurde lautstark Party gemacht. Vom Personal fühlt sich dafür niemand verantwortlich, da nachts schlichtweg niemand vor Ort ist und sich auch niemand herbeibequemt, um nach dem Rechten zu sehen.Der Grund für diesen verfallenen Zustand wurde uns beim Blick in die Rezeption klar: Dort hängt ein großer Zukunftsplan, der zeigt, dass der Platz komplett auf Blockhäuser (Chalets) umgebaut werden soll. Das erklärt wohl auch, warum hier nichts mehr investiert oder repariert wird. Überall stehen Absperrzäune und verfallene Gebäude herum.Für klassische Camper absolut nicht zu empfehlen. Eine riesige Enttäuschung!

    The light at number 81 is broken, and it’s attracting countless huge insects. That’s why the light is so bright. My electrical box, which I paid for, is 10 meters away. You can’t drive tent stakes into the ground. The other sites are empty—why do they have to assign such an obviously lousy spot? The rest is okay.

    bei der 81 ist die laterne kaputt, das zieht unzählig viele riesen Insekten an. Das Licht ist sehr hell deswegen. Mein Stromkasten, für den ich bezahlt habe ist 10 Meter entfernt. Heringe lassen sich nicht in den Boden stecken. Die anderen Stellplätze sind leer, wieso muss man einen so offensichtlichen schrotten Platz geben. Der Rest ist okay.
