Nestled along the scenic Route Napoléon, this family-run campsite offers a peaceful retreat with stunning views of the Alps and Mount Obiou, praised for its warm welcome and attentive owners Fred and Maïté. The grounds are spotlessly clean, with sanitary facilities described as impeccable and of a high standard, consistently earning compliments from guests. Pitches are spacious, well-shaded, and often separated by hedges, providing excellent privacy and beautiful mountain vistas, making it an ideal base for hiking and exploring nearby lakes and attractions like Notre Dame de la Salette. The heated swimming pool is a popular highlight, perfect for unwinding after a day of exploration, though some guests found the water a bit cool and the pool area modest. The on-site restaurant serves excellent homemade meals, including wood-fired pizzas and regional dishes, at reasonable prices, with fresh bread available by order for morning pastries. The campsite is small and intimate, ensuring a relaxing and never overcrowded environment, though some pitches near the road may experience traffic noise during the day. A dedicated dog park and a playground cater to families and pet owners, and a library, games room, and petanque court add to the amenities. While mostly tranquil, a few reviews mention occasional noise from hunting dogs or maintenance, and some guests wished for clearer communication about the bakery service. The owners are noted for their kindness, fluency in English, and excellent local recommendations, making many guests feel like family and return for multiple stays. The setting is beautiful, offering direct access to walking trails and a short drive to supermarkets and the lake, combining convenience with a serene, authentic experience. Overall, this campsite is highly recommended for those seeking a clean, friendly, and tranquil base to explore the magnificent Écrins massif and its breathtaking landscapes.
