The campsite is quiet, the pitch we were on was so steep that we couldn't use the kitchen sink which couldn't drain. The bathrooms in the upper part were few and there was always a queue, but they were clean

This campground was excellent. It was very clean, the bathrooms were well taken care of. I don't remember her name but the lady running the site was very nice and helpful. The only issue I had was my site had no shade during the hottest part of the day, so definitely bring a pop up canopy.
