    We drove to the campsite specifically because of the good reviews, but when we checked in, it turned out the restaurant was closed for the evening, and the bread delivery service for the next day wouldn't be available either. What bad luck! We paid €46.11 for one night without electricity—a steep price for a campsite. The location did have a beautiful view, though.

    We reden speciaal voor de goede referenties naar de campsite, toen we ons aanmelden bleek het restaurant voor de avond gesloten, ook zou de broodservice voor de volgende dag niet mogelijk zijn. Dikke pech dus! Voor een nacht zonder stroom betaalden we € 46,11 een vors tarief voor een campsite. De locatie had wel een prachtig uitzicht.

    Please note that the front desk closes at 5:00 p.m. We arrived at 5:30 p.m., and they had left us a map with
    —our site number (the last one available); and for good reason...Very small, narrow (perhaps standard for Switzerland... all the sites), literally no privacy.
    But that’s nothing compared to the noise from the exhaust vents of the campground restaurant’s kitchens!! They start up at 9 a.m. and shut down at 10 p.m.!! Not to mention the noise from guests on the terrace until 11 p.m. and later
    The only upside is that the restrooms are very clean.
    In short, if you like nonstop vacuum-like noise
    and chatting with your neighbor and “sharing” ...this is the place for you.

    Attention la reception ferme à 17h , arrivés à 17h30,on nous avait laissé le plan avec
    Le n ° de notre emplacement( le dernier libre); et pour cause...tres petit, etroit,( dans la norme Suisse peut-être..tous les emplacements), littéralement aucune intimité.
    Mais ça n est rien à côté du bruit des sorties de hottes des cuisines du restaurant du camping !! Démarrage à 9h , extinction 22h!! Sans compter le bruit des clients en terrasse jusqu'à 23h++
    Seul bon point les sanitaires tres propres.
    Bref si vous aimez le bruit genre aspirateur non stop
    Et discuter avec votre voisin et "partagez" ...c' est le bon endroit.
