We stayed there for two nights in our camper at the end of the season in mid-October. The welcome was very friendly. The grounds were very well-maintained, and the outdoor pool, restaurant, and bakery were still open. The price was quite high for the off-season. The restrooms had been renovated but weren’t brand-new anymore; however, they were very clean. There’s a dirt path leading into town; cycling up the hill is a bit of a struggle. We stayed in the “Comfort Mare” unit and were parked right on the waterfront in the second row.

Really nice location, great service staff, housekeeping is extremely well-organized—you get everything you need, like toilet paper and fresh towels. Amazing view and a beautiful complex with a supermarket and restaurant—everything here is perfect! Awesome

Good city campground. Very friendly staff. Nice campsite by the river. Restrooms are relatively
—simple but clean. About 200 meters to Colmar. About a 20-minute walk to the old town. Large shopping center along the way. Overall, highly recommended for a visit to Colmar.

We stayed at the Landal Resort Arcen for 4 nights in mid-October with our two children (ages 2 and 5). Our "Buitenverblijf Wellness 4" cottage was affordable, cleaner than we had expected (though not perfect—there was dust and cobwebs everywhere), and furnished in a modern and cozy style. The kitchen had everything we needed for daily use, plenty of dishes and silverware, a dishwasher, and an oven with a microwave function. The bedrooms had two single beds, which we pushed together. Unfortunately, the mattresses on the box-spring beds slid out of place, creating a large “gap.” Storage space for clothes is very limited. We thought it was great that there was a sauna, but we couldn’t adjust the temperature ourselves (maximum 50 degrees). The small shed behind the house was handy; we stored our bikes there. You’ll also find a vacuum cleaner there, which you’ll quickly need in a small house with kids.

The park itself offers everything kids love: great new playgrounds, car-free zones for scooters, balance bikes, and bicycles, a swimming pool, an indoor playground, an arcade with pay-to-play machines, and a petting zoo with goats, sheep, chickens, and rabbits (feed is available for 50 cents at the front desk). We would have liked the swimming pool and the indoor playground to open earlier than 10 a.m. Unfortunately, the indoor playground is designed in such a way that small children (our 2-year-old) can’t climb up on their own, which we found very disappointing—the age requirement is also 4 years and up. The swimming pool was fun for the kids, even though the slide has hardly any incline and is therefore very slow. The water could have been a bit warmer, but it was fine. The room temperature was pleasant.
The entertainment program pleasantly surprised us: from lantern-making (for a fee) to pumpkin carving (for a fee) to the kids’ disco, the activities were varied, and the staff were very friendly and enthusiastic!
Unfortunately, there are activities everywhere that require an additional fee: the trampolines, the numerous vending machines scattered all over the place—this is a bit annoying and led to repeated discussions with the kids.
We highly recommend the lovingly designed “Zwergenpfad” (for a fee).
You’ll receive a map to help you find your way, pointed caps, and magnifying glasses for the kids.
The area around the park is very beautiful! You can go for a great bike ride or jog in the adjacent forest. There are many bodies of water and lakes, and the little town of Arcen—with its many cafés and restaurants and its location on the Meuse River—is also worth a visit!
We can recommend a (short) vacation at the resort! However, we wouldn’t stay there for more than a week.

We were at the campground during the first week of October (week 26). It’s actually a very nice, well-organized, and very clean campground. However, I can’t for the life of me understand why it’s forbidden to ride an e-scooter on the grounds. When I’ve seen the speeds at which e-bikes, cars, trailers, and RVs travel on the grounds—and there’s no enforcement—that’s much more dangerous than e-scooters on the grounds. Oh well, that’s that. I could understand it during peak season, but not during the off-season.

A short walk along Lippenslaan toward the beach.
The campground facilities are very good.
Standard sites are a bit cramped.
There's a supermarket right across the street.
