the most expensive campsite of our whole trip & we were packed in. we didn't go in the Aire because the reviews said it was tight but the campsite was no better. no swimming pool, no WiFi, barely any shade. there is a bar on the waterfront - again a rip off, walk a few metres either way on the lakefront path & the beer is much cheaper Go right out of the site & there is a public beach & park ideal for cooling off or SUP as it is quite shallow. we walked into Lausanne & used the free travel pass to get the bus back. paying through the nose for the location
Good city location but more than just in need of renovation

Good city location in Lausanne with direct public transport access. A complete network map for buses/trains in the Lausanne region is included in the stay: great. Very friendly reception and generally a good site layout regarding pitches, tent field and permanent campers. As an urban site, of course, there is a corresponding noise level. Restaurant and shop unfortunately closed at the beginning of October. The building facilities such as washrooms, drying rooms, sanitation etc.: max. in need of renovation. Very old, unheated, unclean. That something like this still exists on a large campsite that is also in a busy and affluent area. Every place in Lapland is better in this respect. For these reasons, we will not visit the site again, neither with a tent nor with a camper. Prices: it's just Switzerland €€€€

The campsite is close to the city of Lausanne. A 15-minute bike ride and then take the metro into the city. Tickets for public transport are available at the campsite. The pitches are very, very tight! Sanitary facilities are very old and cramped! Washing dishes is very cumbersome! Hot and cold water are separate! Either you burn your fingers or you have to deal with cold water. Unfortunately, there is no private access to the lake. Nearby, there is a small beach with pedal boat rentals.

It is an old, solid campsite in a super location. The sanitary facilities are old but clean and okay. Unfortunately, the shop was closed. The restaurant is okay. We would be happy to come back again. Right on the shore of Lake Geneva and only 4 km to the center, it couldn't be better!

A gentle renovation is needed!

We have been to this site several times before, which is actually quite fine, if it weren't for the completely outdated sanitary facilities from the 60s! Although they are cleaned diligently, it smells unpleasant, the showers are very cramped and the water temperature cannot be adjusted. Very Spartan amenities, only a hairdryer and a few sockets, the light only works at every second sink.... For this price, I expect a bit more! Very many spots occupied by permanent campers who live here and go to work, resulting in a lot of car noise. However, some seem to have not been here for years, these accommodations look very unkempt.

Poor sanitary facilities and basic site

Thomas D.
The campsite is super centrally located and right on Lake Geneva. There are plenty of sports opportunities in the vicinity. The campsite is old and very dirty. The sanitary facilities date back to the 70s and 80s, and the women’s restroom smelled of urine. The site has a huge number of permanent campers. Some of them have probably not been here for several years. Our pitch was quiet and relatively soft. The lady at the reception was one of the few bright spots of our visit. She was very friendly, helpful and multilingual. For those who only care about Lake Geneva and don’t place much value on ambiance and hygiene, this is the right place. It’s acceptable for one night!

easy access and bus right at the entrance. Very friendly reception. But completely outdated sanitary facilities, in the showers there are partly no hooks to hang clothes. A splash guard is also lacking. The facilities were clean.
