Woodlodge - 6 persons

We were pleasantly surprised by a wonderful week at the Pampel—from check-in to check-out and everything in between. Friendliness is very important here; you feel incredibly welcome!
The park is well-organized, well-maintained, and attractively decorated. The restrooms are thoroughly cleaned several times a day—no complaints there. Our kids (ages 6, 8, and 11) made friends right away and had a great time; they really enjoyed the pool, too. The entertainment team is truly top-notch! Roan and Jordy (no idea if those are your real names)—what enthusiasm! Kudos—you don’t see that very often. Fresh, high-quality pastries are available every morning. Nice surroundings; the ice cream from Co is definitely worth a try. There’s also a gnome trail you can walk from the campground—our 7-year-old son really enjoyed that! We’ll definitely be coming back here.

A great campground for families with young children. It has all the amenities you need, and there’s plenty to do in the area.

Great vacation.
We stayed at Camping de Pampel for 9 days. What a great location! Great service! Great entertainment!
We had already booked. And only then did we read the reviews. Honestly, we were scared and really regretted booking.
But I have no idea where those reviews came from.
The staff were all equally friendly. No issues with the wristbands. The restroom facilities were all clean. Okay, there is sometimes some toilet paper on the floor. But that’s because of the kids or adults staying at the campground.
The entertainment staff there really deserves a big thumbs-up—they’re amazing. They’re on hand all day long. And the kids are having a great time.
We were on site 310.
And our kids were 1 and 3 years old.
It was truly amazing—we’re going back next year.

I really enjoyed the food! The dishes were flavorful, the portions were generous, and you could tell a lot of care went into them. Definitely worth a return visit. The staff was also very friendly.

A nice family campground with a few clear areas for improvement

We had a really nice vacation at Camping De Pampel. There are a few areas for improvement, but overall we look back on it with fond memories.
First, about the wristband system: to be honest, we don’t understand all the negative reviews about it. Of course, it takes some getting used to, but if you think about it carefully, it’s a very logical system. It ensures that only campground guests use the facilities. As far as we’re concerned, this is actually a plus.
We had a spacious campsite with private restroom facilities on a paved surface. We were very pleased with that. However, we did notice mold on the sealant edges, which really shouldn’t be allowed in private restroom facilities.
The biggest downside for us was that the campsites behind us didn’t have their own water spigot. As a result, neighbors—including children with water guns—regularly came onto our private area to get water. That really detracts from the feeling of having “private” restrooms.
Unfortunately, we found the food options very disappointing. The fries and snacks were without a doubt the worst we’ve ever had at a campground. The ice cream machine was also very inconsistent: sometimes it was fine, other times the ice cream was already almost melted when it came out. Fortunately, the food trucks more than made up for it, as we had some delicious meals there.
The pool is truly amazing. It was nearly 30 degrees, so the unheated water was actually wonderfully refreshing. In cooler weather, I can imagine it would be a shame that the pool isn’t heated.
Furthermore, we don’t recognize the negative reviews about strict wristband checks, grumpy owners, or golf carts driving too fast at all. We didn’t notice any of that during our stay.
The indoor playground was well-maintained and ideal for children. The play equipment on the campsites was also a big hit. The campground store is well-stocked and has an excellent selection, though longer opening hours would be welcome.
Finally, the public restrooms, showers, and dishwashing areas also deserve praise: they were clean, modern, and well-maintained.
All in all, we had a wonderful vacation. With a little more attention paid to the food and beverage offerings, the water stations at the campsites, and the maintenance of the private restrooms, this campground might almost be worth a second visit—but for now, it was a great vacation, though not one we’d repeat.
