  • 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 friendly, family-run campsite has a great restaurant with good food at fair prices. Guests loved the warm welcome, clean facilities & private, well-sized pitches. Some noted dated toilets & occasional water pressure issues, plus one report of a noisy late-night disco.

Liked Small campsite with a pool. For us it was just one night stop.

Disliked Unfortunately we had a very bad experience at the restaurant, food (steak and mussels) was cold and service very very slow! Do not drink cocktails nor mocktails, purely sugar syrup and no fresh ingredients. Toilets as showers were cleaned 10am when most people needed to use them, meaning queues and frustrated people. Also men’s urinals are when you enter unisex toilets, not great for women to walk in to see that!
Good location for our stop but wouldn’t stay again.

Liked Good sizes pitch, the bar/restaurant was great, run well and the food was good, the toilet at the side of the restaurant was a good size and clean.

Disliked Toilets and showers are in urgent need of upgrade, rusty pipes, felt unhygienic and small cubicles. Tennis courts has algae/moss on the surface as does the table tennis table. Pool had cover on that had algae on the cover with frogs in the algae. Don’t be fooled by the photos.

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.
