Nestled along the Moselle River, this campsite offers a stunning location that makes it an ideal base for exploring the surrounding region, with scenic routes for hiking and cycling to destinations like Cochem and Zell. The staff and owners are consistently described as friendly, welcoming, and helpful, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere that makes arrivals feel like coming home. On-site amenities include a well-stocked supermarket selling fresh bread rolls and Dutch specialties, plus a restaurant that is generally praised as inviting and reasonably priced, though some years found the food greasy and unappetizing. The most sought-after pitches are those directly on the riverbank, which are spacious and boast magnificent views, but inner-ground pitches tend to be smaller, cramped, and placed too close together, creating a claustrophobic atmosphere. Sanitary facilities receive mixed reviews: some find them clean and well-maintained, while others describe them as outdated and poorly maintained, with an especially small toilet block in the rear area. One major inconvenience is that all showers and warm water are only located near reception, requiring a long trek for guests placed further away, and showers operate using tokens or coins. WiFi is a paid service and widely considered expensive and disappointing, with many guests wishing for free or more affordable internet access. Water tap points are also limited, with guests needing to walk significant distances from their pitches. The campsite is run by a Dutch owner and popular with Dutch guests, giving it a distinctly Dutch character throughout. Quietness varies from year to year: some seasons report a calm atmosphere thanks to an older clientele, while others note constant through traffic or noise from nearby roads and river traffic. The atmosphere is generally relaxed, though the campsite can get quite busy even in the off-season, and it is particularly lively for younger guests. One notable downside is the pricing, with many feeling the site is overpriced for what it offers, despite some promotional stays providing good value for money. Electricity billing is metered separately per kilowatt, which is considered fair by some, but guests must trek back to reception at checkout to pay and have their power disconnected. A major complaint involves disappointing customer service during Moselle flooding, with guests denied refunds despite the owner having loss-of-earnings insurance. One report mentions that the marina area is the dirtiest along the Moselle, with the manager allegedly becoming aggressive when issues are raised. Ducks and geese wander freely, leaving droppings, and some dog owners let their pets roam unattended. Despite the tight quarters and minor drawbacks, the waterside location and good atmosphere make it a place many visitors return to multiple times, emphasizing the overall positive experience and the caring management. A bicycle is recommended for getting around the site, and the surrounding area is beautiful with multiple excursions organized each week.
