Summary created out of 387 reviews

Veluwepark de Bosgraaf is situated in a beautiful wooded location on the Veluwe, ideal for walking and cycling. The park is undergoing extensive development with new, luxurious accommodations that are modernly furnished with amenities such as air conditioning and hot tubs. Guests appreciate the large playground, the swimming pool, and the friendly, helpful staff. However, there are points of concern: construction work causes disturbance with noise and vacant plots, guests complain about poor communication beforehand, and the swimming pool regularly has technical issues with water being too cold.

    The resort campground is very well-maintained and clean. There are various accommodation options—you can rent a vacation home with or without a hot tub and sauna. A big advantage is that you can park right next to your vacation home.
    The only downside is the pool. If you really want to swim, children often jump into the deep end from the water slide, making it nearly impossible to swim undisturbed. The shallow end, on the other hand, is too shallow to swim properly.
    Perhaps it would be a good idea to set aside one hour in the morning or evening exclusively for swimmers, so that people can do their laps in peace.

    Das Resort Camping ist sehr gepflegt und sauber. Es gibt verschiedene Unterkunftsmöglichkeiten – man kann ein Ferienhaus mit Whirlpool und Sauna oder auch ohne mieten. Ein großer Vorteil ist, dass man direkt am Ferienhaus parken kann.
    Der einzige Nachteil ist der Pool. Wenn man richtig schwimmen möchte, springen im tiefen Bereich oft Kinder von der Wasserrutsche ins Wasser, sodass ungestörtes Schwimmen kaum möglich ist. Das flache Becken ist wiederum zu niedrig, um dort vernünftig zu schwimmen.
    Vielleicht wäre es eine gute Idee, morgens oder abends eine Stunde ausschließlich für Schwimmer zu reservieren, damit man in Ruhe seine Bahnen ziehen kann.

    We had a wonderful stay in a relatively new cottage that was spotlessly clean. A pleasant and well-maintained park with great facilities and fun activities, friendly staff, and a handy app. And all of this in a beautiful setting with plenty to do.

    A park with potential! Due to a leak in the accommodation we had booked, we were rebooked at the last minute to a newer cottage. This was communicated clearly and wasn’t a problem for us. Upon arrival, the cottage turned out to be brand-new, while the cottages around it were still very much under construction… which didn’t exactly make for a cozy sight, with lots of mud and construction equipment. Our cottage, however, was neat and modern. The missing curtains were neatly hung the next morning, and as compensation, we were offered a dinner. Everything was handled very well. The cottage itself (663) was, as mentioned, modern and new, but the bedrooms were quite cramped and the bathroom was tiny. It was manageable with three kids, but I wouldn’t find it comfortable with more than two adults. The kitchen supplies are also very limited, which means you end up doing a lot of dishes or having to run the dishwasher when it’s only half-full. The park has a nice playground and a great (but freezing cold… what do you mean, heated?!) swimming pool. There are areas in the park that are already beautifully overgrown and look very cozy. This will eventually happen to the rest of the park as well—they’re doing everything they can to make it happen. We’d love to come back again!

    Een park met potentie! Wij werden door lekkage in onze geboekte accomodatie last minute omgeboekt naar een nieuwer huisje. Dit werd goed gecommuniceerd en was voor ons geen probleem. Bij aankomst bleek het huisje nagelnieuw, de huisjes eromheen waren nog volop in aanbouw... dat gaf niet echt een hele gezellige aanblik, veel modder en bouwmachines. Ons huisje was echter wel keurig en modern. Onbrekende gordijnen werden de volgende ochtend netjes geplaatst en ter compensatie kregen we een etentje aangeboden. Prima opgelost allemaal. Het huisje zelf (663) was zoals gezegd modern en nieuw, maar wel behoorlijk krappe slaapkamers/mini badkamer. Met 3 kinderen ging het nog wel, maar met meer dan 2 volwassenen zou ik dit niet fijn vinden. Keukeninventaris is ook heel summier, waardoor je veel aan het afwassen bent of de vaatwasser halfleeg moet laten draaien. Het park heeft een leuke speeltuin en een tof (maar ijskoud.... hoezo verwarmd?!) zwembad. Er zijn delen op het park die al heel mooi begroeid zijn en heel gezellig ogen. Dit zal met de rest op termijn ook gebeuren, daar wordt alles aan gedaan. We komen dan graag nog eens terug!
