Nice campsite, tent meadow but a bit far from the washhouse, but toilet nearby. Food in the restaurant is delicious.

We were passing through the Bärenschlucht campsite for a day and, with a prior reservation, got a parking space at the playground.The plots are numbered and some have been transplanted. The plot was okay for our Wowa 7.5m long + car, but we couldn't have put up an awning.The sanitary facilities were well maintained and well cleaned.The Bärenschlucht and the town are very beautifully located and there are many excursion options and activities that you can do on site. Starting with trout fishing, hiking, climbing, summer toboggan run, stalactite cave and much more.

Called at short notice two weeks in advance and got a wonderful spot by the water. Friendly staff. Good paved places without mud. The food in the restaurant was great and cheap. 2 nights for 2 adults and 2 children + WoWa and towing vehicle 86 euros. The sanitary facilities were clean and warm. The only negative point: There were dogs there by the house on the square that barked almost around the clock. You could hear that very loudly in the valley.

Great campsite with very nice operators. We felt very comfortable. There is a small stand with regional fruit. Bread service is also available. The rolls must be ordered the day before at 4:30 p.m. The restaurant is also great. It's worth making a reservation early because there's a lot going on. The food is great. Thank you again for the good time.

More than bad! Pure rip off! Inquiry disguised as a booking. Despite a regular cancellation due to illness, we were asked to pay! A debt collection agency was immediately commissioned to collect the costs for twice the actual amount! This approach is unbelievable! Therefore “0” stars… Stay away from the place!!!

Apart from idiotic campers who came from the ABG region and negligently smoked the entire area in the valley, everything was great. There are always idiots everywhere. It's also a shame that many campers don't have any behavior either - it's crazy how the dumplings get sauteed. Everything was cleaned perfectly and you don't want to talk about it in the evening. We really liked the restaurant, great food and friendly service.

We had a very short stay there. The place itself is very beautiful.What we didn't like was the parking. If, like us, you drive to the site for the first time, there is no orientation as to where you can park at short notice so that you can ask reception where you can go to the booked plot with your large vehicle.Unfortunately, registration is not at the beginning of the campsite.The food is good in the restaurants there.However, it ends earlier in the eveningWe think it's a shame. Especially if you arrive in the evening and are tired from the journey.

It's a very nice campsite with everything you need. The pretty Püttlach is magical and what's really great is the small entrance to go swimming in it. Only for the very brave as the river is very cold, but still great! We enjoyed the food in the beer garden and the service was very friendly (even though it was packed). The sanitary facilities are clean, only once there was no towel paper for half a day. But oh well. To be able to take a warm shower you have to put in 50ct and then you have 4 minutes, which is completely enough. For diehards, you can take a cold shower without inserting money. The small shop has the essentials for your daily needs. We used the bread roll service every day.... Enter it on a list in the evening.... Pick it up from the shop in the morning. Very easy. We felt very comfortable and since we don't have to go far (1 hour drive) we will definitely come back 🥰!

Great location, lots of families, well equipped, bread service.Showers have to be paid extra and the kiosk there is a bit expensive, but it has to be financed. The restaurant is good value for money, very tasty and highly recommended. Tip: reserve a table
