What customers say
This campsite is praised for its superb location with stunning mountain views and its exceptionally clean, modern, and well-maintained facilities, particularly the shower and toilet blocks. Guests frequently mention the spacious pitches, friendly and helpful staff, and good on-site amenities like a restaurant and pool. Some reviews note potential drawbacks such as traffic noise from the adjacent road, occasional WiFi issues, and a self-check-in process that can feel impersonal. Despite a few concerns about pitch allocation and misleading website photos, the overall sentiment is highly positive, with many visitors expressing a desire to return.

Liked Sanitaire très propres
Disliked Pas une seule ombre, par 36 degrés nous nous sommes arrêtés pour faire le plein d’eau et repartis instantanément
La verdure que l’on voit sur ces photos n’existe absolument pas.
À à peine 100m de la nationale 🤮
Personne a l’accueil à notre arrivée à 15h.
Au bilan non remboursable nous avons donc payé un emplacement dont nous ne. Oui sommes pas servi

From the manager: Bonjour Jerome
Merci pour votre commentaire.
Le camping a été rénové il y a 3 ans. Depuis, nous avons planté de nouveaux arbres. Ils ont besoin de temps pour pousser.
Sur les photos (si vous regardez toutes les photos), vous pouvez voir que la route est proche et qu'il n'y a pas d'arbres.
Avant votre arrivée, vous avez reçu un e-mail vous expliquant comment se déroulait l'enregistrement et Pitchup indique également que la réception n'est pas ouverte.
Nous sommes désolés.
no reception, no control, overcrowded chaos paid booking means nothing
Electric grass pitch
Liked Toilets, Showers
Disliked Absolute chaos! We booked and paid for a motorhome pitch with electricity, but it means nothing here. There’s no reception, no staff, no guidance — anyone can drive in and take whatever space they want. We arrived to find tents pitched on motorhome spaces and the whole place overcrowded. We ended up parking on a football field because there was nowhere else! Stressful, disorganised, and a total waste of money. Never coming back and strongly recommend you avoid this campsite entirely.

From the manager: Hello Peter
We are very sorry, that the campsite didn't live up to your expectations.
We are just a campsite with 3 stars, which doesn't provide the same luxury as a 4 or 5 star campsite..
We don't have a separation between tent and campingcar pitches.
Kind regards

Electric grass pitch
Liked The washing facilities are really good. The pool area is nice. Would recommend a visit to Unterbach to the Seepark and the suspension bridge - not far to get to.
Disliked The pitches are not clearly defined so it becomes a free for all and fighting for space. The campsite isn't manned so there wouldn't be anything stopping you or others just driving on and pitching up. The wash facilities are really nice, however there are only six showers on the whole site (which is huge). We naively didn't realise that we'd need to get the car transporter train to get to the Interlaken and Grindelwald area, it is very expensive to keep going there and back, so we ended up exploring the local area instead.

Electric grass pitch
Liked Super Campingplatz, sauber und geräumig. Gut organisiert, Check-in und Check-out automatisch (über das Internet) keine Notwendigkeit, in der Schlange zu warten. Die Toiletten und Duschen sind sehr gepflegt.
Disliked Nähe zur Straße und zum Gleis. Wenn man ein leichter Schläfer ist, kann man Probleme haben.

Gerne begrüssen wir Sie ein anderes Mal bei uns.

From the manager: Bonjour Eric
Merci pour votre évaluation.
Notre camping est un camping exclusivement en libre-service, il n'y a donc pas de réception.
Le bruit de la route cessera à partir d'octobre, lorsque l'autoroute sera terminée.
Grâce au train et à l'hélicoptère, nous sommes rapidement accessibles et les hélicoptères peuvent intervenir rapidement en cas d'incident.
Meilleures salutations
When in Switzerland, campervan or bike. You'll find me here.
Electric grass pitch
Liked Second visit as such a great spot with great facilities. As expected, a little busier in August but still a great stop.
Ablutions are top notch as is the pub/restaurant on site. The campsite overall is well maintained to a high standard. Will always be my go to when in Switzerland.
Disliked Struggle for a constructive point. The only possible improvement would be to mark out the pitches. At times people struggle as others take a lot of space and then others arrive late at night and struggle. Not something I've experienced but I did observe this time around.

From the manager: Dear Mark
Thank you again for your lovely feedback.
The pitches are marked with poles. Perhaps the people didn't see them, as the pitches are very big;-)
Kind regards
