    We arrived by motorcycle with a tent and were able to camp right by the water, not far from the farm café and the restrooms. At the farm shop, Birgit sells cold drinks and coffee, among other things, and there were freshly baked waffles. The entire grounds are absolutely beautiful, and despite being close to the café, we had complete privacy. A highlight was the fire pit with a grill option for the evening. Plus, there are lovely walking and biking trails right outside the door.

    This time, I stayed there with my son during his spring break. The secluded spot surrounded by nature was exactly the kind of campground we’d been looking for. The hostess was very friendly and kind, and she showed us around. The homemade welcome drink was delicious, too. I’d love to come back next time with my wife and daughter. Thank you so much for the wonderful time!
