Camping Hammerschmiede-See
This campsite has a rich history, with many returning visitors, though the surrounding area has evolved over time, including a horse farm not shown in promotional images. The lake occasionally suffers from blue-green algae due to fertilizer runoff, and in past years, tree frogs were exceptionally loud in May. Despite these issues, the site is small, fine, and friendly, with the family running it receiving high praise. However, reviews across years vary; some guests report unfriendly operators who set arbitrary prices and threaten eviction, along with outdated playgrounds and concerns about water quality and dead fish. Others find the owners mostly friendly and enjoyable. More recently, in 2023, the campsite offers free meadow pitches by the lake, with options to rent fire bowls and buy trout directly from the owner at good prices. Sanitary facilities are in containers but very clean, with showers, private washbasin cabins, dishwashing sinks, and laundry machines. There are two well-maintained playgrounds, a sand volleyball court, and permanent pitches for seasonal campers plus meadows for transit guests and groups. The lake is used for fish farming and open for swimming, though blue-green algae may occur; it is drained in autumn for a fish harvest celebration where guests can order fish to prepare themselves. Operators are described as friendly and helpful, but the site can be busy with events like Red Cross summer camps and campervan meetups. Notable features include the lake, trout sales, fire bowl rentals, and multiple playgrounds.
