Ik kom hier al sinds mijn kindertijd en bijna 25 jaar later voelt het nog steeds als thuiskomen. Deze camping heeft iets bijzonders: een fijne, ontspannen sfeer en een prachtige ligging waar je helemaal tot rust komt. Of je nu met kinderen bent, houdt van watersport of graag de Friese dorpjes en stadjes in de buurt ontdekt , er is voor iedereen wat te doen. Voor mij blijft het een plek waar ik telkens weer met plezier terugkeer!
