Experience unforgettable moments in our private natural paradise in the heart of the Palatinate Forest. Set in a secluded location by a small, idyllic lake, crystal-clear water and absolute tranquility await you—far away from traffic noise and the hustle and bustle of everyday life.
You can park just a few meters from the shore! Treat yourself to some downtime in our sauna with a lake view or our hot tub (available as an optional add-on) on a mini-island. Or get active with some fishing or a beautiful hike through the Palatinate Forest.
*Special highlights available as add-ons:*
--> Hot tubs: We have two wood-fired hot tubs for you. Our large hot tub (for up to 6 people) is right next to your campsite on the shore. Alternatively, there’s our two-person hot tub, idyllically situated on a mini-island in the middle of the lake—complete with a floating drink holder! 😉 Both are perfect for soaking, relaxing, and stargazing. ✨🛀
--> Sauna with lake view:
Treat yourself to pure relaxation in our wood-fired sauna, all to yourself right on the lake shore! Enjoy the magnificent view of the water while you sweat, then cool off properly: large stone steps lead you to a refreshing dip right at the spring’s outlet into the lake. True natural wellness! 🌲🛀
*Activities:*
Whether swimming, fishing, or stand-up paddling—our lake offers a wide range of possibilities. We’re happy to provide a SUP board upon request.
*Nature experience:*
Observe the local wildlife, enjoy hikes or bike rides in the surrounding forest, and let your mind wander.
We look forward to seeing you! ☀️🌲🐟

It was a wonderful time; it’s a great place to relax. The hot tub is a lovely way to unwind in nature. Nikolas and his family are very kind hosts; he’s always willing to listen to his guests and does his best to accommodate everyone’s needs.
An incredibly beautiful evening view awaits you. You can enjoy a hot tub on the lake or on the shore, which you can use well into the night. Gazing at the stars while soaking in water heated to 40 degrees is an experience that money can’t really buy. Nick and his friends are also very open and totally helpful. For example, our van wouldn’t start when we were leaving. Thanks to numerous helpers, even that wasn’t a problem. Tip for campers who need electricity: bring an adapter and a cable reel. Apparently, a few guests hadn’t thought of that beforehand. Dinner on the dock by the lake is also particularly charming
5 stars, but more like a 9/10. The site is very beautiful and quiet. If you’re looking for a digital detox, this is the perfect place. Our stay was still pleasant, and the host, Nik, is very friendly and attentive. We were warmly welcomed and bid farewell. We’re deducting one point because, in our opinion, €98 for two nights is a bit too much. Unfortunately, we didn’t have an adapter for our CCE 3-pin plug to a Schuko plug, so we saved on electricity for the two nights and ran on battery power, which was possible but a bit of a hassle. At other campsites with similar prices, you can refill fresh water and sometimes even drain gray water, but not here. This detracts a little from the overall impression, even though the site itself is very beautiful with its fishing ponds and hiking/walking trails. We still had a lovely and peaceful time and would like to express our sincere thanks. The campsite has a lot of potential, and we wish the host and his family all the best for its future development.
This was our second time staying with Nikolas, and it’s just a wonderful place to stay. Nikolas is a very friendly host who’s always easy to reach and has great tips for the area. Highly recommended
