First Camp Gunnarsö-Oskarshamn

Everything was as it should be, we felt very comfortable. Unfortunately, as everywhere in Sweden at this time, no restaurant was open.

Great spot located on a small island near Oskarshamn. Unfortunately, we could only stay here for one night as we were already on our way home. However, this spot is definitely saved for a future visit, which will be significantly longer. With opportunities for swimming, hiking, and biking, what more could you want? Relaxation or activities of all kinds, we enjoyed it immensely.

We were at this campsite from July 1st to 3rd. It is a super beautiful place. We were received and served very kindly at the reception. We had booked for one night, with the option for a second night. Unfortunately, it didn't work out with the second night at the same place. Even though our motorhome was still on the spot and we hadn't paid yet, our place was rented out again. In the evening, when we returned from our walk from Oskarshamn, there was actually a caravan on our pitch. The staff then asked us to clear the site. Until now, we always thought that as long as the place is not paid for and the motorhome is still there, the place is not free. We were very disappointed and the staff did not apologize even once.

We were at the campsite for two nights at the beginning of August 2022. We had booked the site just one day prior, as there were no more spots available on the island, only newly established "premium sites" near the cabins. These sites were created simply by pouring a piece of tar on a flat area and placing a pole with electricity and water. Overall, the location is not bad, right in the middle of a pine forest and fairly quiet, but it is quite far from the island with all the "attractions" (swimming area with diving board, kids club, bounce pillow, playground, restaurant, pedal boat rental, reception with shop and bread roll sales (no pre-ordering possible for non-Firstcamp members)) and the new sites were set up before the sanitary facilities were upgraded, meaning that all the new sites (as well as the already existing sites outside the island and the few cabins without their own bathroom) have to share one men's and one women's toilet. For men, there wasn't even an extra sink outside the toilet area, so brushing your teeth meant blocking the toilet. Since there is one sauna each for men and women, it was often super warm and stuffy in the building. The showers are side by side and fully visible. Currently, the only place to wash dishes is on the island. Everything is supposed to be built, but the order is simply not correct. Additionally, you pay more for the "premium sites" than for those on the island. There is a marked hiking trail leading to Oskarshamn, but the town does not warrant a trip; there isn’t even a single postcard from the town (we went to many places and asked everywhere because we wanted to send one to an Oskar). Conclusion: it must be quite lovely on the island in good weather, but our site wasn’t worth it under the current conditions.

Very nice seaside resort with shady spots. Good fishing opportunities without a fishing license.

Very nice location, quiet, good bathing facilities, walking and hiking trails near the site, not far for shopping. We have felt comfortable here several times.

The lady at the reception sent us to the wrong seat (it was already reserved) and then called us stupid. The place itself is very good and well-maintained.

Super beautifully located natural site. Sanitary facilities are excellent. The staff is very friendly and accommodating. In terms of location, the most beautiful place we have visited in Sweden so far.
