  • Peaceful dog-friendly site 200 metres from Lac de Villegusien
  • A 20-minute walk from a watersports centre with canoe and kayak rental
  • Outdoor pool and entertainment; windsurfing, tennis and boating
So you’re heading to Haute-Marne with windsurfing, boating and peaceful swims in mind? Take your map in hand and circle Camping du Lac de la Villegusien. Just 200 metres from Lac de Villegusien and one kilometre from the centre of Villegusien-le-Lac in Grand Est, this dog-friendly site is all about holidays dabbling in watersports, visiting local watermills and unwinding by the pool. That’s right – there’s an outdoor swimming pool on site for those of you who’d like to toss a ball back and forth or practise your front stroke. If you’re the sporty type, get strapped in for the site’s windsurfing and boating activities. On dry land, there’s a tennis court or a table tennis court too. Of course, you might want to add to your watersports skillset by taking the 20-minute stroll to the local watersports’ centre, which will rent you a canoe, catamaran or kayak. Mountain biking and archery are also on the agenda there. So, what’s the atmosphere like on site, aside from guests carrying their watersports gear to the lake or skipping down to the river, which is also 700 metres away? Well, in the high season, there’s entertainment such as concerts to liven up your nights. You’ll also catch animals lounging on the pitches, as this is a dog-friendly place. Peaceful, friendly and green are some other words that sum up Camping du Lac de la Villegusien. Facilities-wise, are shower and toilets, a launderette, washing-up area and disabled facilities.

What customers say

This is a friendly, family-run campsite praised for its welcoming staff, excellent food, and good value. Many appreciate the convenient location for stopovers and the availability of clean facilities and a pleasant pool. However, some guests have found the toilet and shower facilities to be dated, basic, and occasionally unhygienic, with issues reported regarding water pressure and mixed-gender arrangements. Noise from events was also a concern for some.

Liked Prima ontvangst. Wij hadden problemen met de caravan en moesten wachten op de ANWB. Wij konden die dag op de plaats blijven zo lang als nodig was. Uiteindelijk hebben wij nog een extra nachtje geboekt. Personeel zeer meedenkend en meewerkend.

Electric grass pitch

Liked L'emplacement
L'accueil de l'hôtesse

Disliked Le manque d'accessibilité des sanitaires
Lavé les 2 blocs en même temps et mettre plus 1h pour 2 lavabo et un toilette.

Très énervant.

On a finit par partir sans avoir pu accéder aux sanitaires

Et être entre 2 axes routiers, un vrai calvaire avec les poids lourds toute la nuit

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Madame, monsieur

Nous avons mis du temps à vous répondre à réception de cette très mauvaise note et de ce terrible commentaire.
Nous avons à la lecture de votre commentaire appris que notre personnel d'entretien avait mis plus d'une heure pour deux lavabos !!! ? il y avait donc a votre disposition 14 autres lavabos que vous auriez pu utiliser . Mais peut être ne les avez vous pas vu .

Camping familial, convivial. Le personnel est sympathique, les sanitaires sont bien entretenus,…

Liked Camping familial, convivial. Le personnel est sympathique, les sanitaires sont bien entretenus, piscine sur place et lac à deux pas, emplacement ombragé et raccord à l'électricité avec point d'eau sur parcelle... Super sympa, je recommande les yeux fermés.

Disliked Manque de lumière dans les sanitaires le matin et le soir😅

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Merci Monsieur , madame,
Pour votre agréable commentaire et votre très bonne note . la lumière dans les sanitaires a été réparée et désormais vous pourrez sans problème avoir de la lumière le matin et le soir . merci encore

Not a bad site, I liked it, just not the best.

Local attractions

Kick off a cultural tour with a visit to a local watermill: dinner at The mill over water (five minutes’ drive) or a look around the Baissey (10 minutes) watermill used in Roman times, perhaps? There are also unusual stone snails at Escargots de Cohons (10 minutes). There’s plenty for those who have kids to think of, such as tree-climbing activities in Accrofolie (an hour), paintballing at Paintball & Activités (an hour and five minutes) and theme park rides in Nigloland (an hour and 10 minutes). Perhaps, they’ll want to run barefoot around the mazes at Farm Adventure (an hour and a half) or tour a goat farm at La Ferme Du Charme Du Moulin (an hour and a half). More peaceful days out include garden picnics in the gorgeous Domaine De Verybelle (50 minutes’ walk) or Silière Garden (10 minutes). Wildlife is easy to locate too. Gorges de la Vingeanne (15 minutes) is the only limestone canyon in Haute-Marne and a hot hiking destination, while Langres (20 minutes) has three rivers and the Réserve naturelle nationale de Chalmessin (25 minutes) has heaps of marsh wildlife.
