Liane H.
Stay: Sep 2025
"Stayed 5 days instead of immediate departure - When we arrived, we actually wanted to leave straight away: the reception opening time of 2 p.m. given on the Internet for Wednesday was covered with a notice saying 4 p.m. - so we waited in the vehicle for two hours in the cold and drizzle, with a few others with us, who also drove off again in frustration. Then the restaurant at the campsite was supposed to be open, but unfortunately it was also taped over with the words closed today due to a lack of staff. The "dog bar" was filled with green water, undrinkable. Really bad first impression. The check-in was with an unnerved employee, the towels in the toilet were empty. No cycle paths - either the main road, which is also busy with lorries and dangerous with bends, or steeply uphill on a less busy road. We didn't find any hiking trails on our first tour either. We actually wanted to leave again the next day.... Then we discovered some excursion destinations with the help of the brochures on display (the question about hiking trails was only answered in an exasperated manner, so that we still didn't know where they were supposed to be). Hiking trails go over the main road to the left, about 80 meters, and went by e-bike via the detour to the left high up over to Pottenstein (about 5 kilometers, also no bike path, but far less busy). The catering on site is really very good, we used it every day and the staff and operators turned out to be very nice (only quite overworked). We ended up staying for 5 days. It was irritating to pay 3.90 euros a day for electricity and 1.50 a day for garbage - for throwing EVERYTHING into a container. When there are youth groups at the campsite at the weekend, the men's sanitary facilities were dirty and some of the toilet paper was empty.
