  • Quiet family campsite half an hour’s drive from Metz in the Moselle
  • A 25-minute drive to the Maginot Line; half an hour to Walygator Park
  • Spacious pitches among trees; fishing lake, tennis and forest walks
If you’re looking for a quiet family-friendly campsite that combines a leafy countryside setting with all sorts of sporty happenings, Camping La Croix du Bois Sacker in the Moselle may well hit the spot. Situated five minutes’ drive from the sleepy village of Burtoncourt and half an hour from Metz, the site has amenities for tennis, basketball, handball, netball and ping pong… to name but a few. Overlooking the Ruisseau de Burtoncourt stream, the site is on eight hectares of woodland for family romps with any accompanying dogs, and encompasses a fishing lake well-stocked with carp for the anglers among your party. There’s a playground to wear out younger offspring, and a pétanque court for competitive families keen to challenge each other to a game. There’s also nightly entertainment if you fancy joining in. Should you be into alfresco cooking, there are supermarkets for stocking-up expeditions in Boulay-Moselle (20 minutes’ drive), as well as takeaways, snack bars and patisseries if you’d prefer someone else to do the hard work for you. And what of the pitches? They’re all fully serviced, spacious in size and either bounded by neat hedges or tucked under mature trees for that extra bit of privacy.

What customers say

This is a peaceful, rural campsite with spacious, private pitches and a lovely lake. Many guests praise the friendly and helpful staff, clean facilities, and good value. Some reviewers note that electricity is limited to 6 amps and toilet paper is not provided. A few mention pitches can be sloping, and some find the facilities dated. A mobile bakery visits daily, and the site is well-located for exploring the region.

Electric grass and earth pitch

Liked The owners were really friendly & welcoming. Read some reviews about the showers & toilets we found them clean and functional but dated. You need to remember to take toilet paper with you as none provided. The bakery van comes in the morning and was a nice touch. If your looking for total peace & quiet this site would be ideal.

Disliked Site advertised evening entertainment & a cafe this is not the case. We knew it was rural & quiet. We'd booked for 2 nights but only stayed 1 as literally nothing to do on site. You need to travel to surrounding town for anything. We like rural but this site wasn't for us.

Liked Nice welcome from the owners, lovely pitch, facilities spotlessly clean with great showers. Very quiet and peaceful rural setting. Cold Rose wine available too!

Disliked Having to leave prior to 7am the following morning due to the road being closed leading to the site. Appreciate that's not the owners fault and they did inform us as soon as we arrived.

Electric grass and earth pitch

Liked Baker van delivery

Disliked Small pitch size. Electric power unable to use as only 6 amps. No drying facility with wash machines so couldn’t use as outside was to wet to dry clothes. Showers were poor as water supply lasted about 5 seconds before having to pull chain to refresh. Lots of sinks to pot wash but nowhere to put clean pots.

From the manager: Thank you for your feedback. We are sorry that your stay did not meet your expectations.

Our pitches are standard sizes for the region and are described in advance so guests can choose the option most suitable for their equipment. Regarding electricity, our campsite provides 6A connections, which is also clearly indicated before arrival and is sufficient for normal camping use.

As for the laundry area, drying outdoors can of course depend on the weather conditions, which unfortunately are beyond our control. We also take note of your comments regarding the shower system and kitchen area and will continue looking at possible improvements.

We were however surprised by the overall tone of your review, especially as many guests during the same period appreciated our clean facilities, hot showers, peaceful lakeside setting and friendly welcome.

We wish you all the best in your future travels.

Local attractions

To pay your respects to the victims of the World Wars, visit the Nécropole Nationale Chambière in Metz (half an hour’s drive), or the Lorraine American Cemetery and Memorial (35 minutes’ drive). Walk the Maginot Line at Veckring (25 minutes), or take a subterranean train tour of the bomb launchers and gun turrets at Ouvrage Hackenberg Maginot Line Fortress (half an hour). Head back to ancient Roman times at the Museum of La Cour d’Or in Metz (half an hour), with its strong collection of classical statuary through to medieval stained glass and Renaissance paintings. Come firmly up to date again with the best of modern French art at the Centre Pompidou-Metz. And if the kids haven’t moaned at all this history and culture, reward their good behaviour with a day out on the rollercoasters and dinosaur trail at Walygator Park. There are real animals and a falconry show to be seen at the Zoo d’Amnéville (both half an hour), and if you hit an unexpected dodgy-weather day, head off to the indoor slopes at SnowWorld Amnéville (35 minutes) for a ski lesson.
