Property Description

The campground is ideally situated on the verge off Amsterdam, only about 25 minutes from the fantastic city centre of Amsterdam. It's a beautiful location for a city campground: in the middle of the vivid hart of Holland and yet in a quiet, peaceful forest where you can relax or enjoy yourself by having a nice walk, or doing some swimming, biking or canoeing.

Due to some recent traffic changes we now are easily reached by metro/sneltram (subway) (see the added map). There is also a bus stop right in front of the campsite which will bring you in 3 minutes to the metro (or 15 minutes walk) or in 15 minutes to our national airport (Schiphol)

The camp ground is conveniently located for visits to Amsterdam as well as the various attractions in the surrounding area.

The beds we offer are placed in 'Camping Bungalows' (24m2). These are spacious wooden houses (26m2) with a canvas roof, with 6 beds (one with 8 beds) and a table with benches. You can rent the beds separately or the whole bungalow in one. Please note that there is no heating possibility in a camping bungalow. New in 2007 is a heated communal kitchen which can be used freely. (we just ask you to clean up!!). No fridge inside.

We also have hiker's cabins: basic, small wooden houses, suitable for two or four persons. They are equipped with either two single- or two bunk beds with pillows. Besides that, the 4-person cabins are fitted out with a small table and chairs. It is possible to get heating in the cabins (optional).

New!!: 2-persons tents (with 2-persons air-mattress), real basic but cheap. Of course you can use the communal kitchen with big dining room.
PLEASE NOTE: IF YOU BOOK A DOUBLE BED PRIVATE ROOM FOR ? 10,00 PER PERSON, IT MEANS YOU BOOK A TENT, NOT A CABIN !!!!!

Bed linen or blankets are not supplied in the cabins , camping bungalows. or tents (sleeping bags can be rent at the reception during reception hours and please, don't sleep without one because you'll get cold!)

The showers work with coins which you can buy (80 cents) at the reception.

Our camping site provides a shop (in summer time) where you can buy all the things you'll need during your stay. We offer also all the washing facilities you need.

Free car park on the campsite in low season!.

The camp ground is open all year!
