Setting, Environment and Water Access

The campsite is centered around a natural body of water, accessible to all campers. Nestled at the foot of the Vosges mountains, this body of water creates a relaxing atmosphere, surrounded by greenery, where nature is ever-present. Access is direct from the campsite paths, with grassy and open areas to enjoy the sun or a nap in the shade. You can reach it on foot in a few minutes from the accommodations, without having to leave the grounds.

The setting is designed for calm and contemplation: no artificially developed beach, but true proximity to the water, respecting the environment. The lake shores are maintained, allowing easy access for both children and adults, while preserving a feeling of unspoiled nature. Campers can freely settle down with a towel or a deckchair, enjoy the birdsong, or observe the changing reflections on the water throughout the day.

The vegetation surrounding the body of water contributes to the soothing atmosphere of the place, while providing natural shade during the hottest hours. In the evening, calm gradually returns, offering an ideal atmosphere for reading, walking, or simply reconnecting with the surrounding nature. This central area of the campsite largely contributes to the spirit of the place: simple, natural, and relaxing.

Water activities & On-Site Activities

The main body of water is open for swimming for campers. It is unsupervised: children remain under parental responsibility. For everyone’s well-being, swimming is prohibited after 8 PM. The water is regularly monitored in summer (every 15 days) to ensure health safety. This strictness allows everyone to enjoy a clean, safe, and pleasant space, in compliance with current standards.

Another area of the campsite is reserved for fishing, in a separate pond. Enthusiasts and amateurs alike can set up there with their personal equipment. Fishing permits are available at reception. It’s a highly appreciated activity for its tranquility and contemplative aspect. Some campers particularly enjoy this moment of morning silence, conducive to observation and inner calm.

The lake banks also allow for outdoor games, family moments, or simply a walk around the water. The natural setting allows children to play freely, under supervision, while enjoying a protected and safe environment. Grassy spots are perfect for playing ball, a game of Mölkky, or picnicking. The campsite values these simple activities, which allow for the creation of authentic memories, in direct contact with nature.

Accommodations & Waterside Pitches

Camping Les Castors offers several lakeside accommodations, which appeal with their privileged location and peaceful atmosphere. The cottages located by the water offer an unobstructed view of the pond, ideal for waking up to nature or enjoying dinner on the terrace at sunset. This type of accommodation is highly sought after for its comfort combined with total immersion in the natural landscape of the estate.

Some pitches for tents or caravans are also available in the immediate vicinity of the body of water. These pitches allow you to fully enjoy the coolness of the lake and the ambient calm, while remaining close to the campsite’s services and activities. Campers thus benefit from an idyllic setting without sacrificing the convenience of common facilities (sanitary blocks, catering, children’s games).

Whether you choose an unusual accommodation, a chalet, or a traditional pitch, staying lakeside at Camping Les Castors means opting for a unique setting, between water and nature, comfort and simplicity. This direct contact with the environment enhances the feeling of disconnection and fully contributes to the outdoor holiday experience. Each waterside accommodation thus becomes a small haven of peace, conducive to rest and escape.
