What campers are saying
Summarized by AI
The campsite scores with its brilliant location right by the town and the warm, helpful team. Campers particularly enjoy the heated pool and the clean sanitary facilities. Good to know for the trip: Anyone heading there should be prepared for rather weak electricity amperage at the pitches.

Pros
Location of the campsite in the interesting village. Clean sanitary facilities. Location/Rental accommodation: not much.
Cons
Campsites too close to each other (no hedges). Turnover too high. Location/Rental accommodation: glass shards found on the site. Turnover too high, too much profitability. Pool very small compared to the photos, you can stand everywhere. Children's play area behind a fencing covered with a tarp: play until after 10 p.m..... Electric connection cut off upon our return, had to change the terminal.

Pros
A fantastic stay in the mountains with very beautiful hiking trails in the area, a swimming pool, paragliding, and the cable car is all nearby. Location / rental accommodation: Very good lodging, more than sufficient for a week of vacation. Very clean and well arranged. The view from the balcony is simply stunning. There is everything needed for children.

Pros
Location, swimming pool. Having water at the pitch is nice.
Cons
The electricity price of €1,- per ampere per day is truly ridiculously expensive. The floor of the pool terrace gets dangerously hot in summer. Without footwear, you burn your feet. At the pitch/accommodation, there’s no possibility to use pegs because the ground is far too hard. The site opposite the apartments is very small and resembles a parking lot.
