    We spent a week camping at this lovely campground. We were assigned a magnificent
    spot on one of the terraces. What a spacious spot, what a view—we’ll definitely be coming back here more often.
    By the way, we were able to book an extra day without any problems.
    The restroom building is clean, and you can take a shower without tokens.
    From our spot, we could just walk right out of the campground to walk our dog. Around every bend, it’s a surprise to see what the most beautiful sights the Sauerland has to offer.
    We spoke with a few regular campers this week; the area is well worth visiting even in the early and late seasons.
    Next time, we’ll definitely book a longer stay. We’re far from done exploring this area.

    Een weekje gekampeerd op deze fijne camping. We kregen een magnifieke
    plek toegewezen op een van de terrassen. Wat een ruime plek, wat een uitzicht, we komen hier vast en zeker nog vaker .
    We konden trouwens zonder problemen een dag bijboeken.
    Toiletgebouw is schoon, en douchen kan zonder muntjes.
    Vanuit onze plek konden we zo de camping af lopen om onze hond uit te laten. Het is na elke bocht weer een verrassing wat Sauerland voor mooist laat zien.
    Een aantal vaste kampeerders gesproken deze week, ook in voor en naseizoen is de omgeving zeer de moeite waard.
    Een volgende keer toch maar langer boeken. We zijn nog lang niet uitgekeken in deze buurt.
