Set in the scenic Gorges de l’Ain along a river, this campsite appeals to nature lovers seeking an unpretentious, tranquil escape. Recent years reveal a site in transition: the new owners are described as extremely helpful and willing to assist guests, yet enforcement of strict quiet hours—forbidding conversation after 10 PM and limiting children’s play—has drawn sharp criticism from some visitors. Many advertised amenities, including a snack bar, mini-golf, and swimming pool, have been found closed or unavailable during stays, leaving children with little to do. About 200 meters from a lake, the campsite offers easy swimming access, and guests receive a discount on entry. The lake beach provides play structures for kids, attentive lifeguards, and homemade ice cream. Spacious pitches accommodate campervans and other setups well, with modern, clean shower and toilet facilities and good laundry amenities. Staff are consistently praised for their friendly, welcoming demeanor. A swimming pool is a highlight, especially on warm days, though the snack bar may close outside peak season. Basic supplies like milk are available on-site. The small, cozy layout makes it an excellent base for cyclists and motorcyclists exploring the region. Pizza nights are popular, so ordering in advance is recommended. The final approach can be tricky with sat navs—keep right to avoid a tight turn on a private road. While the peaceful rural setting and lake access are strong draws, potential visitors, especially those with children or expecting lively amenities, should verify current ownership and operations before booking.
