Falkensteiner Camping Grubhof Ülevaated

What I really liked were the size of the campsites. The location, the friendliness, and the cleanliness.

Since I was there with a dog, I would have liked to see a dog run. I've seen that at many other campgrounds. Maybe they'll add one someday. There's plenty of space.

The restroom facilities are very clean, though that’s to be expected given the fairly high price. Spacious campsites

There's nothing negative about it

Of course, this beautiful and wonderful campground with its spacious sites. It’s not too crowded, and you have an unobstructed view of the lovely meadow. Plus, the restrooms are in very good condition.

There was a bit of confusion at the front desk this time, but in the end, everything worked out just fine. Unfortunately, the shower card wasn't working reliably, but it was replaced without any issues. Dog owners might need to be reminded again that leashes are required on the grounds. We were there with our own dog, which is why it caught our attention.

The Weather and the Landscape

Dealing with Customers

Location with a beautiful mountain panorama, right on the Saalach River, with hiking and biking trails right outside the door

We didn't like the food at the campground restaurant. The meat wasn't hot, and the baked potato was almost raw.

The location, the restrooms, the restaurant—the staff are always friendly and helpful

Disposal only at the entrance/exit (both trash and sanitary waste)

- Excellent location - Friendly staff - Excellent restroom facilities - The towns of St. Martin and Lofer are just a few minutes' walk away - Excellent public transportation access - Affordable rates at the charging station (€0.40 / kWh)

Excellent restroom facilities, good restaurant, bread roll service

Truck traffic can be heard at night; groceries are only available once you're in town

The surroundings are great Beautiful spots and restrooms

Individual requests are not accommodated High price

Great location by the river

I didn't notice anything

Extremely friendly and helpful staff, a beautiful location, large campsites right on the river, very clean and well-maintained restroom facilities, a restaurant with a good selection, and delicious food

Conventional chemical toilet disposal is available only in the entrance area (next to the trash disposal area and the graywater disposal area). Otherwise, only paid vending machines are available in the restroom area.

Location, Peace, Relaxation

There aren't enough parking spaces for dog owners.

Friendliness,the pitch, beautiful surroundings

Wifi

A campground in an incredibly great location with outstanding restroom facilities.

One drawback is the rather poor Wi-Fi coverage and the long walk to the chemical toilet disposal station if you don't want to use the Camperclean.

The seating was great as always, even though we didn't get the seats we'd reserved.

We come every year, but this was our last time. We called to ask if there was a dog-friendly spot available, and we were assured there was. When we arrived, they claimed everything was booked, and we had to go to the tent field. We had to pay in advance, which really surprised us, but we were assured that if we left early, we’d get a refund for the overpayment. Since we weren’t satisfied with the tent field, we wanted to leave the next day, but were only reimbursed for 2 of the 4 days we’d booked; the dog fee and visitor’s tax weren’t refunded at all. When I realized this, I went to the front desk and asked what was going on. I emphasized that we had been assured we’d get our money back and that I’d be happy to let my lawyer handle it—we discussed it for about half an hour in the back room. Then I received a smooth refund of the overpayment, including the dog fee and tourist tax. This is now the second time in a row that we’ve had problems. The first time, they claimed no deposit had been received—even though we showed them proof in writing—so we had to pay the full amount, and after multiple inquiries (in writing), we finally got our money back after six weeks. Now we’ve had enough of Camping Grubhof.

Friendly, welcoming team Generous, level pitches Greatest Sanitaries Cosy Restaurant Good gym Great views and handy location

That we only booked 5 nights

Very spacious sites in beautiful surroundings

Didn't find anything

It's a great campground with a beautiful view and 5-star restroom facilities.

There is absolutely nothing to complain about

Spacious sites in the "Quiet Area" Great location and a first-rate panoramic view Very nice restroom facilities

The chemical toilet could only be emptied at the entrance, which was very far away. I'm not a fan of emptying it into the automatic cleaning stations.

Brilliant layout, restroom facilities with a family bathroom, very clean and quiet campground

Strong Drain Odor in Men's Showers (Bathhouse by the Bridge)

Sanitärgebäude sind perfekt, Ruhe, schöne Landschaft

Müllentsorgung nur an der Einfahrt möglich und der Raum müsste besser belüftet werden- es stank sehr stark

Very friendly.

It was already cold at night, so we turned on the heat 😂😉 The food wasn't that great.

Starting Point Cleanliness and Amenities of the Facility Wellness: Top, Top, Top

Unfortunately, really poor communication The front desk knows nothing about the online booking The process was bumpy No information that the camping cabins are empty— no dishes, no bedding... NOTHING!! Basically not a problem, as long as it’s communicated, but it wasn’t noted anywhere—neither online on the platform nor in the booking confirmation !!! This needs to be clearly pointed out. When you arrive on Sunday, you’re left looking pretty foolish 😤 Otherwise, everything was great

There was plenty of space on the campground, and the restrooms and showers are new and spacious enough. The restaurant is good, though more vegetarian options would be nice.

Reservations are always for 2 people, which means that even as a single person, you still pay for 2. The woman at the front desk wasn’t friendly. There are no trees on the campground, so there’s no shade, and the mowed grass was left on the ground, which meant it ended up all over the cars and tents. The drying room for wetsuits is great—the hanging rods are heated—but the humid air needs to be vented; otherwise, nothing will dry anyway.

The location is great for activities. Whether at the campground or in the surrounding area. Good bus service. Spacious sites.

A little expensive

All in all, a very nice campground, right in the heart of the action. Great access to hiking, biking, or just a short walk.

Not known to us

The warm welcome The huge campground The restroom facilities The view of the Salach River and the mountains All in all, a wonderful vacation

I haven't had any negative experiences

Great location

We were supposed to read the electricity meter at the parking spot, but we couldn't. The meter is in the utility room.

Excellent location, great starting point for hikes and mountain bike tours, ideal campground for dogs, very clean restrooms, mountain railway nearby

None

- Spacious pitches, each with its own large green area - Very beautiful and well-maintained sanitary facilities - Beautiful surroundings - Stunning mountain views - Fresh bread delivery service and a restaurant on site

- The campsite is quite expensive. We paid €68 per night for two people and one dog. - We had paid a 40% deposit in advance by credit card. At check-out, we were told that the deposit had not been paid. After we showed the receptionist our bank statements as proof of payment, the issue was resolved. However, we did not receive an apology and the receptionist was not very friendly or helpful.

Very quiet during the off-season. Only about 10 spots were occupied on the entire campground. Right next to Saalbach—a very nice campground

-The restroom in the men's area had an unpleasant odor -The access roads could be wider -The Wi-Fi connection... didn't work at all -Hidden/unjustified charges

Spacious campsite, clean and comfortable washhouse, guided hikes. Friendly staff and a very good restaurant.

We were completely satisfied.

It was the ideal starting point for hiking trips and adventure excursions.

The kitchen needs to be modernized. The refrigerator is too small for 9 people. The stove and cooktop should be updated (it takes a very long time to heat up pots and pans). Also, 8 forks for up to 10 people is a bit too few ;-)

Very nice campsites, especially mine by the river. Great restroom facilities. Friendly staff and excellent dining options. I've already booked for next year.

I didn't like that some of the pools were rented out. There were sometimes long wait times.

Overall, a very nicely designed campground. There was usually plenty of space between us and our neighbors on the right and left. We liked the lakeside sites in the quiet zone on the far right best. The S1 restroom facility we used was very well designed and equipped. It was wonderful to be able to shower as often and for as long as we wanted in the lovely private bathrooms. Wi-Fi was free—great!

I didn't like that you can't reserve a parking spot. Not even a year in advance. The woman at the front desk whom I asked could obviously see in the system that a specific parking spot had been reserved for the same month next year. But she told me that I couldn’t reserve that one for myself. That seems illogical to me, but it’s a major drawback for me—for us—because we don’t want any surprises for this high price. There’s only one spot for manually emptying the toilet cassette near the front desk. It always stank, and there was always water on the floor that you had to wade through. The trash disposal area was disgusting. It was a closed room where the smell made me feel very nauseous. If the room were well-ventilated, it would be okay. Wi-Fi was free, but the connection speed was often very slow or even cut out.

The campsites along the Saalach were a dream. The restroom facilities, too, are state-of-the-art— not only modern but also very clean. Kudos.

The staff at check-out were in a very bad mood. The layout of the large campsites needs improvement, since there were always people—let’s say about 15 of them— in our spot, and also the kiosk was very small. As for the food, well, it was just too expensive. They had the nerve to complain to us about whether the spot belonged to us—excuse me, but we paid for it. We paid for the spot and wanted to use it. (How are we supposed not to make a fuss?) 😏

We spent a week at the Grubhof Campground. We really enjoyed it—it was very clean, the area was great, and the food was good.

I didn't have any TV reception. Unfortunately, you can't book the specific campsite—only the category.

Quiet

Price too high Years ago, it was cleaner and more affordable

Everything was great except for the food; the staff was super friendly.

Dining

The location: between the Watzmann and the Wilder Kaiser—everything is within easy reach / The view: even from the bathroom, you can see the mountains all around / The restrooms: we’ve never had such a great bathroom before / The staff: very friendly / The campsites: nice and spacious, right next to a green meadow

The campsites weren’t suitable for standard anchors (tent stakes, screws)—maybe mention this in the future / The entrances and exits to the respective “roads” are so narrow that we were only able to leave with our 14-meter trailer by sheer luck (the friendly camper in question was already up and able to move his car out of the way) / some campers don’t realize that you have to lock the bathroom so the green light doesn’t stay on

Great campsites and the best restroom facilities we've ever had.

Only 5 kWh of electricity per day; anything beyond that is subject to an additional charge.

The location—1A. Waschhaus 1—is beautifully designed. And the staff is so friendly!

Check the drainpipes regularly—some of them aren't draining properly. And there was a smell of sewage in some of the washrooms. The cleaning crew should use different cleaning rags whenever possible. A green one for sinks, a blue one for toilets, etc. Not just one for everything!! That’s disgusting. I’ve noticed this.

Food options Lack of shops There was no place to purchase water

A really great, well-located campground!

Unfortunately, when we made our reservation and were assigned a spot, they didn't take into account that we had booked with our dog. We were assigned a spot in the quiet area. Luckily, we were able to move to a spot in the dog-friendly area :)

We’ve been coming to this campground for 30 years now! We were warmly welcomed and well taken care of! As always, it was a pleasure for us to be here. The reception desk has new staff! They’re friendly and accommodating! Mareike and Eileen are a blast! We’ll be back!

Our tent neighbors (mostly Dutch) look at us critically because there are so many of us! And we have a big tent with us. But we’re peaceful— we’re happy when people stop by and sometimes even have a beer with us!

Super clean, spacious restrooms; a restaurant with excellent value for the price; a huge parking lot; activities for the kids; and a location so central that you can easily explore the entire surrounding area

No direct subdivision

This campground. 1. It's in a great location for seeing a lot of sights. 2. It's very clean. 3. The restrooms are clean. 4. It has everything kids need.

We had a 180 m² parking space that we couldn't use in its entirety because of the landscaping—that's the only issue.

Everything was spotlessly clean and well-maintained, with a breathtakingly beautiful mountain view

Nothing—everything went perfectly

Het uitzicht, en de omgeving

TToilet gebouw niet luxe en vies. Animatie/team??

Great service, close to the water, and clean restrooms. The location is perfect. You really get to relax here, and it’s a great place to plan your trips. The restaurant is delicious, too, and the service is fantastic!

There's really nothing!

Great plot, great location, excellent recreational opportunities, beautiful restroom facilities.

… we can't think of anything! 😊

Location - Restrooms - Staff - Cafeteria

I haven't noticed any drawbacks

Rustige camping, alles gemoedelijk, schoon sanitaire ruimtes, alles netjes verzorgd. Denken alleen na de overname dat de schoonmaak wat minder is. Receptie is vriendelijk en behulpzaam. We hadden een mooie plek aan de Beek. Na overname is het wel duurder geworden, dat is erg jammer

Na over na is prijs aanzienlijk duurder geworden Schoonmaak minder vaak dan voor overname

Beautiful surroundings, a nice place for our son to play with his peers, and the river was great. It was nice to be able to use the Saalachtalcard.

We were on the tent field and felt we paid far too much for what we got in return. There was no water point at the tent, we mainly looked out at all the cars parked by the tents, and the tents were very close together. The sanitary facilities on the other fields were super deluxe (even a bit over the top), but on the tent field they were substandard. There was too little cleaning and far too little capacity for the people who were there. Upon arrival, it turned out that we had to pay extra for electricity. All in all, a lot of money for a camping pitch that did not meet the conditions!

The size and amenities of the campsites, as well as the spacious washrooms.

Unfortunately, the Wi-Fi often goes down, and the bandwidth isn't sufficient when the place is full.

Big area to set up tent (not allways flat though) and create own private space

All cars been parked in front of the tents. Looks messy

Stunning scenery all around, a wonderfully situated campground on the Saalach River, beautiful campsites, and clean, modern washrooms

The selection at the Platz-Shop is quite limited, and the hours are short

River side and surrounding area is great

Facilities at the tent side are way below standards and feels like “getto” compared to caravan site

The camping site is very well located. From here you can go everywhere and there’s a lot of things to do with and without children. It’s nearby the Lofer alm which is very beautiful. The saalbacher card is a great opportunity to do a lot of cool stuff and visit the caves and the swimming pool in Lofer!

We didn’t have enough time to do all the thing we wanna do. That’s why we have to come back! ;)

Great location, wonderful atmosphere, beautiful surroundings, very friendly staff, Saalachtal Card

Washhouse at the campground

Large pitches, great facilities, just a cycle ride to loafer with lots of local events. Take advantage of the free cable car and walk the mountain.. Lovely..

None of note..

Nice campground and nice room

The same breakfast every morning, even though there were other options available. Over the last 3–4 days, I've noticed that all the items on offer were already past their best-by date.

Camping site, restroom facilities, hiking trails, Salach map

You can't reserve parking spots. Extremely unfriendly welcome upon arrival

The location is perfect—there's nothing to complain about.

The staff doesn't seem particularly competent. First of all, we didn't receive a key card for the laundry room. And halfway through our vacation, neither the gate nor the laundry room was working. Well, at least it’s good when that happens while the front desk is still open. You also often run into situations where two friendly ladies are sitting at the front desk—but only one can work because the second computer isn’t working. So while the employee with the working computer cheerfully chats with the departing guest, the line builds up and the second employee looks out the window, bored... For the price they charge, I expect more than just a nicely decorated reception area and friendly staff.

We liked the pitches (how big they are & the orientation). We also liked the river gently flowing alongside the campingground. The sanitaryblock is outstanding!

The animation program is a fake. We chose for the Grubhof also becoause of the activities the campsite organised. There were no vacant places in any activity in the upcoming 2 weeks. We expected a place we could have a coffee during the whole day. Not in between 2 small intervals.

Location, Saalach card, river

Plot size, sanitary quality, lack of friendliness

Close to the river, beautiful location but that's hard to mess up in austria. The saalach card was nice and gave access to some cool things

Cleanliness of bathroom/shower facilities No shade on the tent pitches Everything in german Poor hospitality, unwillingness to help by the staff No help when you need something out of the ordinary, our air mattress broke on a sunday, all stores closed and no help at all from reception Restaurant often over full, unable to order a simple pizza Restricted access to certain shower facilities if on the tent pitch...why? Too many wasps! Once you check in and pay, youre really on your own here

De omgeving, de ligging aan de beek.

Onvriendelijk en ongeïnteresseerd personeel (receptie, winkel en restaurant). Te duur voor wat je krijgt (zelfs voor de stroom moet je dagelijks nog extra betalen, ook als je op het tentveld staat). Je moet voor alles bijbetalen (zelfs voor kinderactiviteiten, zoals yoga -> dit is op andere campings gewoon gratis).

Located right on the river. Stunning mountain views. The towns of Lofer and St. Martin are still happy to welcome tourists and host regular events. Many discounts available with the free Saalach Card. Friendly and helpful staff.

Vehicles on the campground sometimes travel at high speeds. Many campers aren't concerned about privacy at the lakeside campsites.

Beautifully located. Clean and ample restrooms and washrooms. Mostly very spacious family bathrooms. Hot water is always available.

The site is very large at 180 square meters, but only part of it is usable. The trailer and awning must be set up in a specific area facing a designated direction.

A beautiful location right on the Saalach River, large campsites, plenty of space for children, and numerous recreational activities. The Saalachtal Card was especially great, offering many free or included attractions such as mountain railroads, an outdoor pool, and gorges. Very friendly and helpful staff, good restroom facilities, and everything you need for daily life nearby.

Our campsite was right in the entrance area and thus on the main road. In the mornings, it could get a bit noisy due to garbage collection and guests arriving and departing. For us, however, that wasn't a reason to rate the campground any lower overall.

Mooie camping, schoon sanitair, grote douches, mooie plekken.

Onze plek was nog bezet toen we aankwamen (16u)  Er werd ons gevraagd 1 nacht ergens anders op de camping te staan. Dit hebben we niet gedaan.

Great location, beautiful, spacious sites. Great, modern wash houses. Beautiful places to explore, even by bike. The location right on the Saalach.

Some sites, like the one we were initially assigned—site 454—were so rocky and uneven that it was impossible to align the trailer. Besides, I don’t think it was actually 180 m². The alternate spot, 514, was great— spacious, level, and with a fantastic view.

Great location. Stunning view.

Some of the staff were unfriendly.

Cleanliness / Hygiene / Number of Restrooms Friendliness at the Front Desk Condition of the Gym Price, especially the electricity fee Privacy / Distance from Neighbors

The location and the many activities that the Saalach Card makes so easy are fantastic! The river and its beach are perfect for kids.

We think the flat-rate electricity fee on the campground is too expensive. Unfortunately, we were quoted a different price for our stay beforehand. We would have appreciated better communication.

Beautiful location; it was completely quiet on our lot since there were no children or dogs in our area

We had to walk a little farther to the washhouse

- de grotere sanitair gebouwen - veel te doen op korte afstand van de camping - de rivier (bij mooi weer!) - pooltafel/ tafeltennis

- het kleine toiletgebouw (tentenveld), veel te krap en vaak koud water - de grootte van de tentenplaatsen. We hadden het ruimer verwacht. - vrij prijzige camping - vriendelijkheid personeel wisselend (receptie)

Very nice big pitches. Noted they advertise about 180 SQM but this includes the grass part. On the grass you are not allowed to set up your tent. Nevertheless the pitch is enough for big tent and 2 small ones with the car.  The sanitair equipment is very nice with XXL family bath rooms.

Near the river can be a bit noisy due to swimming and playing kids. Not a problem when you aware of this. We stayed at the normal XXL pitches.

Everything was nice, relaxed, and clean.

The staff at the restaurant were unfriendly. And they could play some music in the restrooms and make them smell fresher.

The spot is one-of-a-kind, with a beautiful view and access to great biking and hiking trails. The stream is perfect for the kids and for people and animals to cool off.

The restrooms had a strong odor and were, in some cases, very dirty—with dried bloodstains on the floor and feces in the toilets. The shower drains were heavily soiled,
