The Camping

We wish you welcome on our camping.

In the small town Dalen we have a campsite on a cosy island. Here we do everything in our power to satisfy our guests. We have always gone camping ourselves and have gained a lot of experience on how a campsite should be. Good sanitary conditions and a clean area are important to us. We want our campsite to be pleasant, with a good relationship between the guests and us. During the season there are a lot of families with small children, something which gives the campsite a friendly and lively atmosphere.

The campsite is grass-grown, relatively flat and about 7 hectares. Here you can stay wherever you like: sheltered, in the sun, by the river or if you have children, close to a playground. There are power outlets almost all over the area (16A).

We have five nicely decorated cabins in different sizes. All are equipped with hot water and electricity. For shorter stays there is the “Beaver-house”, with 16 rooms and a shared living-room/ kitchen/bathroom. In the main building you will find a well-equipped reception with all the information about the area and a small shop. In the shop you can buy fresh rolls in the mornings. A good breakfast is also possible!

Our Canteen

We have a nice canteen on our camping where you can have a drink or something to eat. From 2011 we will be starting with Dutch pancakes, waffles, hamburgers and fries. A glas of wine or a cold beer and a nice warm cup of coffee or cappuccino. During the high season we will be serving a good breakfast every morning. There also is a small library.

 

 

 

The Reception

When you arrive at the camping-site you receive  information  which contains excursion information and some information about the village Dalen. The reception is opened from 08:30 – 22:00. Furthermore we also have a small shop were you can get the necessary food, drinks and souvenirs.

The camping-site

The camping-site is situated on a small island surrounded by a big river where you can catch good eatable fish. Don´t be surprised when a beaver shows up in front of your tent!! Normally you can see them on one particular side of the island but sometimes they feel secure enough to swim around the entire island. Not only beavers can be spotted near the camping-site but also deers can be present, especially in the morning when only the birds are awake. Now and then even an elk shows up near the camping-site. But it is no problem when you don´t see an elk because we will tell you where you can find them! Most of the time you can choose your own place to stay, although it sometimes happens that we appoint you to a particular place. The atmosphere at our camping is always friendly, cosy and family-like. Even though the camping-site is almost fully booked it is surprisingly quiet.
