  • Lakeside setting in the French Alps, facing mighty Mont Blanc
  • Private beach with waterslide, sun loungers and umbrellas
  • Lakeside restaurant with views over the water and Mont Blanc
You'd arrange a few days' French Alps stay at Camping Mont Blanc Plage just for those gorgeous lake views, with towering Mont Blanc images bouncing back up at you from the gorgeous waters. Add in a whole bucketload of outdoor activities nearby and… well, how long can you take off work to hide away here? The pics above give just a teeny taster of how lush this Haute-Savoie setting is. See for yourself by settling in on a comfy sun lounger on the site’s lakeside terrace as you gawp out over the pair of private lakes. Swimming is allowed, for cooling dips on hot days – or hardy ones on cooler days; there’s a waterslide if you’d like to make a splash with your entrance. Dry off afterwards ready for table tennis in the games room, a lazy sprawl in the TV room or a feast at the lakeside restaurant. Do make an effort to tear yourselves away from those views every so often, though – you’ll be within easy reach of famed Alps highlights – Chamonix and the cable car ride to Aiguille du Midi are within half an hour’s drive, and ski resorts such as Combloux and Megève are 15 and 25 minutes away. Just want to max out the lake time? Trot over to Lac de Passy, a few minutes’ walk away, for beach days, kayaking, windsurfing and fishing. Supplies of all sorts are in the sizeable town of Sallanches, five minutes’ drive away. No need to head up there at the crack of dawn though; the site restaurant sells bread and croissants every morning.

Liked: Nothing, including the weather

Disliked: Electricity supply was faulty although recently installed. Some of the connections I tried didn’t work and the ones that did were not earthed. We had booked and paid to stay 4 nights but left after 1 night.

From the manager: Dear Mister Hankinson. The camping has been full all summer with a lot of english clients and nobody did complain about the electricity. About the weather i cannot do anything... You did arrive and did drive to fast to arrive by us. You did scratch your brand new caravane that s why your answer was we ve got a death in our family and must go back tomorrow. 😉

Awful, run down and falsely advertised.

Power optional grass and earth motorhome site

Liked: Not staying and leaving straight away after looking around the site.

Disliked: This doesn't look like the photos online. It has a little swamp in the middle, I think they described as a lake. The toilet block over the far side was a bit more modern, however the main block was disgusting and all facilities were old and very tired. All around the site was not colourful with graffiti and limited electric spots. It is not a place to stay with poor weather as all pitches muddy and boggy. The lady at reception was nice and helpful., however, It took time to see the entrance as it was not very clear with sign posts and then we hadn't been given a code. It situated alongside a dual carriageway on one side and a train track the other. This definitely doesn't display what it advertised. The restaurant was closed for the season and the lake of which did look nice. I would not recommend. Extremely disappointed and more importantly paying for something incorrectly advertised. I have used pitchup for years as a trusted app and this time I am dissatisfied.

Power optional grass and earth motorhome site

Liked: Leaving!!

Disliked: First of all, the lady on reception was rude to us when explaining the campsite security gate. We were made to feel like we were inconveniencing her. The campsite itself was supposed to be situated around a lake, the photos on the website made it look idyllic. The reality was a far cry from this! It resembled a swamp and much of it was closed, we were not informed of this until we arrived. Everything was very run down, graffiti everywhere and the facilities were filthy and dated. In addition to this, the site is right next to a main road, the road noise meant we had no sleep. We both became ill (we suspect cleanliness of the campsite could be the reason for this).

Liked: views are fantastic large pitches easy access to electricity clean hot showers in second block

Disliked: We were very disappointed to find out we could not take the dog into the restaurant. We had stayed previously in 2021 and this was not a problem. then. We would not have booked the campsite as one of the things we wanted to do was to be able to sit in the restaurant, have a meal and a drink and observe the fantastic view. Having checked pitch up and the campsite website there is no mention of not taking dogs into the restaurant although it does mention not taking them into the beach area which we were fully aware of. Interestingly, we were told that it was due to a health and safety inspection, but somehow the owner has their own dog in there. In addition there is quite a strong smell from the cesspits

From the manager: Madame if you look well on the pitchup site it says no dog on the beach or the restaurant. Most of the clients are accepting it. I ve got a dog but he is a watch dog and is not disturbing my client because he is not running everywhere. You must learn not to do everything with your dog.

Local attractions

Hikes and bike rides are easily accessed in the mountains around the site, several from Sallanches under your own steam and more available to book with local guides. Three highlights are the routes around Mayères Alp, the Veran valley and around Doran; the Sallanches tourist office (in the 14th-century castle at Quai de l'Hôtel de Ville) is open from Monday to Saturday for info on these and on guided tours. By car, set off for trips to Chamonix, for shops, cafés, restaurants and more heady Mont Blanc views, plus rides on the cable car ride to Aiguille de Midi, rising 3,842 metres from the town centre. Skiing is easily accessed around the area – 'tis the Alps, after all – and the blue waters of Lac Bénit are within 50 minutes' drive if you'd prefer warmer pursuits amid scenic lakeside walks. If you're holidaying with kids or teens, Sallanches has a couple of playgrounds, a skate park, a public pool, bowling and a big indoor play centre for ages up to 12. Paintballing is available at Passy, 10 minutes' drive away.
