Perfect little place for family vacation.
The inflatable parcour on water was a hit! Well located to explore the region
Just be aware desk and tent hours are a bit subjective and the water is brown/smells a bit so plan to have bottled water if you may mind this!

It has a great location. It is close to nature, but at the same time not far from groceries and restaurants. A picnic table and a fire place gives feeling of camping. We stayed in a familly room with a little kitchenette where we could make our own breakfast. It was very conviniebtbfor us.
Water park is great fun for all ages if you like this kind of activities. It was super hot during our staying, so we enjoyed very much the water park.
There is bicycle path just across the road with a lot of wild raspberry along it.
The only little drawback of this place is WI-FI absence, because it is located between 2 municipalities.
I highly recommend this place!
