    Newly built restrooms, excellent cleanliness, and the beach is just a stone's throw away. Check-in went smoothly even outside regular hours. If you need a supermarket, you'll have to stop by beforehand because there's nothing within walking distance in the area.

    Servizi igienici di nuova costruzione, pulizia eccellente a due passi c’è la spiaggia, check in effettuato senza problemi fuori orario, se avete bisogno di un supermercato bisogna fermarsi prima perché in zona non c’è nulla di comodo a piedi

    We were passing through and stayed there for one night in our RV. The welcome was very friendly, and the sites were nicely separated by hedges, though small. Everything was very green, and the restrooms were very clean. You could see the Amstelmeer in the distance.
    Since it was the off-season, the restaurant wasn’t open and the front desk was … only staffed sporadically, but that didn’t bother us at all.
    We have nothing but good things to say about this campground.

    Wir waren auf der Durchreise mit unserem Wohnmobil für eine Nacht dort. Der Empfang war sehr freundlich, die Parzelle schön abgetrennt durch Hecken, aber klein. Alles sehr grün und die Sanitär sehr sauber. Entfernt konnte man das Amstelmeer sehen.
    Da es Nachsaison war, war das Restaurant nicht geöffnet und die Rezeption nur sporadisch besetzt, was uns aber nicht weiter gestört hat.
    Wir können nur Gutes über diesen Platz berichten.

    Fair. The private bathrooms are really great! Nice place. But there are a lot of permanent campsites.

    Very friendly owners. Great food at the restaurant. Children and families with dogs are welcome. A family-run campground. I've been going there for 11 years.
