Location of camping is good, lake and attractions are great. Correct food with friendly service.
Shower time not so good because shower and toilets are really dirty.
Site is good and shading

Large lake for swimming or paddleboards, man made beach, pitch amongst trees for shade, access to a beach cafe for drinks/pizza.
Not really the sites fault but the water was thick with green algae and felt a bit gross to swim in. I think it was due to the recent hot weather.
Decent sized pitch. Toilet facilities were clean but basic- you needed to take your own soap and toilet roll. Lots of birds singing in the morning which was lovely.

The location. The area. The staff. I only stayed 2 nights for the TDF otherwise I would happily stay longer. Warm friendly staff. No complaints at all.

The ambience and beauty of the site.
Some of the showers require attention. The water duration is far too short, others are only cold only.
The size and location of our pitch
Hello Timothy, Thank you for your appreciation, we are happy ! Looking forward to see you Team of camspite

We love this campsite and have stayed as a stopover many times, but we noticed that our designated toilets were in a very poor & extremely state.
Make them as pleasant as the toilet block to the side of the office

Arrived and we moved pitch as was close to a school event was no problem at all to move us . Bar reasonably priced ,lake swimming good , also can use next doors lake with slide for no extra charge . Bar had entertainment ideal for younger families shower blocks clean and lovely walks along the river
Place would really benefit from a freshwater pool aswell as the lakes .
Plenty of shaded areas and good electrical points
Maybe a few more easier accessible roads to the grass areas but this is only in case of adverse weather but this is not a negative comment .

The lake
Pitches were poorly maintained. The shower block was poorly maintained and dirty The chemical emptying point was unsatisfactory Very noisy until gone 2 o'clock in the morning The worst site we have stayed on in a very long time.
pitch was level
Pitched was poorly maintained, hedges not trimmed with brambles encroaching onto pitch. Pitch was quite small with a tree in the middle making access difficult

Staff friendly. Facilities grubby .
Try getting the facilities to match the lovely location
Adequate
Dog mess on the pitch

A beautiful, peaceful site by the lake
Toilet block needs renovating. :-(
Good size pitch.
Could do with some general tidying up, hedge cut etc

This is the second time we’ve stayed here as a family of adults. We love being able to swim in the Loir River as well as in the lake. The toilets are (nearly) always clean as the team clean them three times a day. It’s peaceful and quiet, but with lots of options for people wanting entertainment or activities. We will be back!
It’s busy and noisy over the Marcon Classic Weekend!
The pitch for the tent is shady and has hedges on three sides.
Hedges could be cut/trimmed, but this is minor!

Really liked the campsite the area and lakes are fantastic. We had an issue with fuel and the staff were super friendly and really helped us out. Cannot speak highly enough of the reception staff they were fabulous!

Nice area
Shower/Toilet facilities are in desperate need of replacement
Nice view
All grass and hedges needed cutting. Probably not ready for the season yet
Bonjour M PARKER unfortunately it is prohibited to cut hedges from April 15 to August 15. This is a new French law. Believe me, we are sorry. For sanitary facilities it is the responsibility of the village town hall we make requests which remain unanswered. We are sorry for these inconvenients See you soon Isabelle

Très bon camping où nous nous rendons depuis plusieurs années. Dommage cependant que le snack tende à ternir le tablea par une baisse de la qualité du service observée depuis deux ans. Si cela devait perdurer, nous serons conduits à renoncer à y séjourner à l'avenir
Surface des emplacements, propreté des sanitaires.

Leider nichts
Es gab keinen Platz mit erreichbaren Strom für mich, zu wenig Schatten. Für meine vorzeitige Abreise wurde mir keine Erstattung ermöglicht auf meine schriftliche Abfrage habe ich keine Antwort erhalten

Hello, That is not correct; we sent you an email acknowledging your early departure, and I subsequently informed you that—as stated in our terms and conditions—no refunds are issued for early departures. As for the electricity, the connection point was right behind your pitch; you simply needed to ask us. We are very sorry that your stay turned out this way. The team of campsite

La proximité avec l'espace de loisirs
Plus d'arbres sur les emplacements et sanitaires vieillot. Autant d'araignées dans les toilettes n'est pas digne d'un 3 étoiles.
Emplacement très grand
Loading
Grand Camping propre, emplacement de bonne taille ombragé ou non suivant la demande et disponibilité. Animation le soir top.
Dans les douches quelques fenêtres devraient être ouverte en cas de grosse chaleur. Un peu de nettoyage pour les toiles d’araignées en hauteur serait le top
Grand Emplacement bien délimité Sanitaires propre
