    What a surprise to be received so warmly. We felt welcome and had a pleasant chat. We felt the space to do whatever we needed. Bernd and Katja are lovely, warm people. The sanitary facilities are good. We enjoyed the many birds. How wonderful to be able to spend the night in such a beautiful place. Thank you so much!

    We had two wonderfully peaceful days staying with Katja and Bernd. They made us feel right at home and were always there when we needed them. The place is in a wonderfully idyllic, green setting that’s perfect for reflection. We’d love to come back! :)

    We had the pleasure of spending a wonderful weekend with Bonni and Katja. It’s a beautiful place to unwind—absolutely fantastic. We met some lovely people and had great conversations. Bonni and Katja are kind-hearted, very accommodating, and did everything they could to ensure that our cat and we two-legged friends had a really good time. We are very grateful for that. We look forward to seeing you again.

    A beautiful campground in a stunning location right next to the stream. Very quiet, surrounded by nature, and perfect for unwinding. We especially loved the relaxed atmosphere and the beautiful surroundings for hiking and relaxing. The hosts, Katja and Boni, were incredibly warm and hospitable. The barbecue evening we shared with them was especially lovely—yet at the same time, we always felt we could retreat to our own space completely undisturbed. Just the right mix of a personal atmosphere and privacy. In addition to the stream, a real highlight was the unheated swimming pond with fresh stream water—wonderfully refreshing and definitely perfect on warm days. We also found the shared refrigerator very convenient. Overall, we felt completely at home—so much so that we booked right back for July and are already looking forward to our next stay!

    I highly recommend Bernd and Katja. They are incredibly warm and laid-back—you feel right at home, just like visiting friends. Communication was super easy and friendly. The place is just as beautiful as described: quiet, well-kept, and the little lake is perfect for cooling off. The barbecue we shared was a real highlight and made the stay special. We had two really great, relaxing nights—it really doesn’t get any better than that.

    Bernd and Katja are wonderful, welcoming hosts. The campsite is quiet and set in beautiful surroundings. We stayed longer than planned and really enjoyed the pond, the nearby hiking trails, and the barbecue we had together.

    Katja and Bernd are wonderful people and great hosts ❤️ The place at the trout ponds is very quiet, surrounded by beautiful nature. We were able to enjoy the days! Our dog 🐕 was also happy, especially as he was also warmly welcomed. We got a few good tips, but didn't want to leave this beautiful place at all 🌳🌳 In short, we felt completely at home and are really looking forward to seeing you again! Thank you very much 🌺 and see you soon !!!

    We had a wonderful weekend with friends. The Marienthal is fantastically beautiful, pure nature. In addition to the swimming pond, there was a paddle boat, a fridge to use and fresh fish. The hosts are real people of the heart. We felt at home at all times. We will definitely be back!

    ❤️‍🔥Schockverliebt❤️‍🔥 Not only in Marienthal, but also in Katja & Boni! These two really offer a pearl! Beautifully situated, right on the cycle/hiking trail. Facilities tip top 👌toilets clean & well maintained! The "scullery" is well equipped. In bad weather you can also make yourself comfortable there. Kettle, hob, fridge and a large table are available. A disused fish farm pond has been converted into a bathing pond. On request, Kaja quickly gutted and prepared a few freshly caught trout for us. Boni, the master of the grill, then completed the work🤤 We didn't find any peace and quiet, but that was down to our new friends and the bottle of ouzo 😉 but anyone looking for it and wanting it will definitely find it there!!! So.... I don't want to praise too much, it shouldn't always be fully booked😁 Thank you two for the great time we had with you! We will definitely be back 🤘

    We were there with our dog and tent and the place is just great! The hosts were super friendly and accommodating. The swimming lake and the inflatable boat provided the necessary cooling on the warm day. Everything was super clean and tidy. We'd love to stay again!

    We had a wonderful weekend with two incredibly warm hosts. We received a warm welcome as soon as we arrived - the host even had a barbecue for us and invited us to sit at the table. We talked about God and the world in a relaxed atmosphere and learned a lot about the history of the Mariental. Unique natural scenery, great conversations and simply incredibly nice people - absolutely recommendable!

  • Astrid

    It's a very special place - this Mariental in Dallau! Waking up to the sound of rippling water and chirping birds, long walks through the adjoining forest, relaxed reading by the fish ponds, walking to the small town for shopping - an ideal stop for us to recharge our batteries. Katja and Bernd were wonderful hosts: friendly, warm, welcoming and very relaxed. We felt welcome and could just be there! A real recommendation!

    Well, what can I say, it doesn't get more than 5 stars. Absolutely to our taste, great circular hiking trails ideal for dog owners and hikers. Pitch right by the trout ponds or the lake, simply fantastic. Very well-kept sanitary facilities tip top, small lounge with hot water boiler, fridge and sink everything available. Really great hosts, everything is very direct and you immediately feel at home. We hope that not everyone reads this review, because we will definitely book again and hope for a free place. LG Kerstin & Dirk

    If there was a 6th star, I would gladly award it;) the two were simply indescribably nice. We were warmly welcomed with a shandy and my dog with a treat. We had the whole meadow to ourselves. The place is a wonderful spot 🫶🏼 The toilets were clean and a fire bowl was also sponsored. We had a lovely evening with nice conversations and lots of nature around us. ❤️🔥Would love to come again Julia, Moni and Giny

    The four of us spent 2 very nice days with our motorhomes on Katja and Bernd's idyllic property. The two are super nice, uncomplicated, have made a brisk campfire and we could also buy trout for grilling, which we were also great! Plenty of hiking and biking trails in the immediate vicinity! Many thanks to Katja and Bonnie, it was very nice!

  • A beautiful piece of earth on our doorstep. We have found our place to come down. Katja and Bernd leave nothing to be desired, we hope that we can come here for a long time to come.

    Bernd and Katja gave us a warm welcome and helpfully fulfilled all our wishes and questions. We felt very welcome and comfortable. Plenty of space, toilet, recreation room, a lake and more ... there is nothing missing. A great location for the first camping trip for my daughter and me. (Next time we'll remember the swimwear 😉) Thank you it was a great stay.

    Katja and Bernd are super great hosts, contact was uncomplicated, very nice and always helpful. We (a couple with a dog) spent two nights there. The pitch is characterized by a great secluded location with the possibility to swim and barbecue. And of course we also tried their fresh trout - delicious! Toilet, guard facilities, recreation room, cold drinks, electricity, nice get-together etc. everything is possible. We liked it very much. It certainly wasn't the last time we were there!

  • Johanna

    The stay in the Odenwald with Katja and Bonnie was very pleasant. Surrounded by nature and beautiful, nearby excursion destinations such as the stream, barefoot path and art in the forest, the place is ideal for nature-loving families. Thank you for a very nice weekend with you. We would love to come back.

    I don't even know where to start. We were there for a weekend with our children, our dog in the van and our tent. Bernd and Katja are incredibly hospitable, helpful and friendly. Old breeding pools were available next to a swimming pond for splashing around. Bernd was kind enough to bring electricity to our pitch with a cable drum. It is wonderfully quiet there is right next to the forest and there is a beautiful circular path of about four kilometers, which is also great to walk with the children because there is always something to discover on the way. The toilet block is clean and well maintained. A supermarket is within easy walking distance, about 10 minutes. We felt incredibly comfortable there and will definitely be back. We felt incredibly comfortable there and will definitely be back. Best regards Thomas, bianca, finn, lotta, erik, Joshua and Sirius 🐕

    A super great place in fantastic surroundings with very nice hosts. The trout were extremely tasty and were lovingly prepared especially for us. It was also a fantastic stay for our dog. He was allowed to roam freely on the entire site. We can highly recommend the campsite.

    Bernd and Katja were super lovely and nice hosts. Super helpful and always available for a nice chat. If you are looking for peace and quiet, this is the place for you, it is wonderfully quiet and you can relax here. We arrived with 2 Womos for 4 + dog and were able to set ourselves up nicely. We were even allowed to use the small swimming lake on the site - a dream. You can also buy drinks for a small price in the room where you can wash up and sit - great idea. Highly recommended.
