This lakeside campsite on Lake Maggiore offers a split personality: a stunning, tranquil location with warm, family-run hospitality that has charmed many visitors over the years, but increasingly poor and neglected facilities mar the experience. The family and German-speaking owners have consistently earned praise for their friendliness and dedication, creating a welcoming, homely atmosphere that makes guests feel right at home. The on-site restaurant was once a highlight with excellent meals, though recent reports describe subpar food and extremely long wait times. The bar by the water remains a relaxing spot. The setting is beautifully peaceful and uncrowded, ideal for unwinding or starting bicycle tours, yet noise from loud music playing until 2 AM has become a major complaint in the latest years. Sanitary blocks, once described as simple and clean by some, are now widely condemned as dirty, outdated, and poorly maintained—toilets and showers especially disappoint. Showers are now a paid service that provides only four minutes of water. Pitches often face caravans rather than the lake, and privacy is lacking. Parking is limited. The overall experience varies widely depending on the year and location; loyal regulars overlook shortcomings due to the site's charm and hospitality, but newer reviews advise against staying. The campsite fails to deliver on basic expectations of cleanliness and quietness, making it unsuitable for a relaxing getaway.
