Andrea K.September 2024Advantages-Large shower cubicles and sanitary facilities really very clean and tidy for France! -Cycle path around the lake -Very large pitchesNegatives-Pitches sometimes very uneven and the grass quite high -Apart from Troyes, no other excursion destinations worth seeing in the vicinityBeautiful CP at Lac d'OrientBeautiful campsite on Lac d'Orient. Sanitary facilities really good for France, clean and tidy, with some very large shower cubicles.
The pitches are huge, but could be better maintained in terms of being mowed and uneven.
In terms of excursions and city trips, only Troyes (approx. 24 km) is really worth... seeing. The other villages within a radius of 30/35 km are much better described in the tourist information brochures than can be found, all in FR/ENG/NL, no descriptions in German. The bakery and butcher's shop in the center of Lusigny-sur-Barse and the fromagerie in Champ-sur-Barse are highly recommended!
A cycle tour around the lake is highly recommended.Automatically translated.%20-%20https://sketchapp.com%20--%3e%3ctitle%3e178342C7-E563-41CE-8EC0-A9A54298CB55%3c/title%3e%3cdesc%3eCreated%20with%20sketchtool.%3c/desc%3e%3cdefs%3e%3ccircle%20id='path-1'%20cx='25'%20cy='25'%20r='25'%3e%3c/circle%3e%3c/defs%3e%3cg%20id='Page-1'%20stroke='none'%20stroke-width='1'%20fill='none'%20fill-rule='evenodd'%3e%3cg%20id='Transparenz'%20transform='translate(-1158.000000,%20-29.000000)'%3e%3cg%20id='Header'%20transform='translate(108.000000,%2031.000000)'%3e%3cg%20id='Profile'%20transform='translate(1052.000000,%200.000000)'%3e%3cg%20id='CI-Placeholder'%3e%3cmask%20id='mask-2'%20fill='white'%3e%3cuse%20xlink:href='%23path-1'%3e%3c/use%3e%3c/mask%3e%3cuse%20id='Background'%20stroke='%239b9b9b'%20stroke-width='2.5'%20xlink:href='%23path-1'%3e%3c/use%3e%3cpath%20d='M24.9650909,39.2018953%20C22.42,39.2018953%2020.2218182,37.8707667%2019.6992727,36.1567717%20L20.7421818,36.1567717%20C21.1643636,36.1567717%2021.5058182,35.8072948%2021.5058182,35.3765701%20L21.5058182,32.1288835%20C22.5618182,32.6530989%2023.7465455,32.9491525%2025,32.9491525%20C26.2534545,32.9491525%2027.4381818,32.6530989%2028.4941818,32.1299965%20L28.4941818,35.3765701%20C28.4941818,35.8072948%2028.8367273,36.1567717%2029.2589091,36.1567717%20L30.232,36.1567717%20C29.7083636,37.8707667%2027.5101818,39.2018953%2024.9650909,39.2018953%20M18.58,25.4008967%20L18.0956364,20.5093332%20C18.0661818,20.2411041%2018.0465455,19.969536%2018.0465455,19.6924031%20C18.0465455,15.7591185%2021.1665455,12.5592902%2025,12.5592902%20C28.8345455,12.5592902%2031.9534545,15.7591185%2031.9534545,19.6924031%20C31.9534545,19.969536%2031.9349091,20.2411041%2031.9010909,20.5605304%20L31.4189091,25.4053487%20C31.1047273,28.8177569%2028.3458182,31.3898623%2025,31.3898623%20C21.6552727,31.3898623%2018.8963636,28.8177569%2018.58,25.4008967%20M32.6341818,34.5974815%20L30.0225455,34.5974815%20L30.0225455,31.1327631%20C31.6327273,29.7982955%2032.7290909,27.8305403%2032.9396364,25.5567145%20L33.4218182,20.6851846%20C33.4578182,20.3579674%2033.4818182,20.0274112%2033.4818182,19.6924031%20C33.4818182,14.8998951%2029.6767273,11%2025,11%20C20.3232727,11%2016.5192727,14.8998951%2016.5192727,19.6924031%20C16.5192727,20.0274112%2016.5421818,20.3579674%2016.5792727,20.7174611%20L17.0603636,25.5511496%20C17.2709091,27.8283143%2018.3672727,29.7971826%2019.9785455,31.1327631%20L19.9785455,34.5974815%20L17.3658182,34.5974815%20C11.6505455,34.5974815%207,39.3643909%207,45.2209114%20C7,45.6516361%207.34254545,46%207.76363636,46%20C8.18581818,46%208.52836364,45.6516361%208.52836364,45.2209114%20C8.52836364,40.2225014%2012.4916364,36.1567717%2017.3658182,36.1567717%20L18.1316364,36.1567717%20C18.6192727,38.7555888%2021.4938182,40.7600725%2024.9661818,40.7600725%20C28.4374545,40.7600725%2031.312,38.7555888%2031.7996364,36.1567717%20L32.6341818,36.1567717%20C37.5083636,36.1567717%2041.4727273,40.2225014%2041.4727273,45.2209114%20C41.4727273,45.6516361%2041.8141818,46%2042.2363636,46%20C42.6585455,46%2043,45.6516361%2043,45.2209114%20C43,39.3643909%2038.3505455,34.5974815%2032.6341818,34.5974815'%20id='Icon'%20fill='%239b9b9b'%20mask='url(%23mask-2)'%3e%3c/path%3e%3c/g%3e%3c/g%3e%3c/g%3e%3c/g%3e%3c/g%3e%3c/svg%3e)
Martin H.May 2022AdvantagesVery well organized check-in (also in English), nice large pitches, each with a gravelled area (for the motorhome or car), clean, modern sanitary facilities. All pitches with separate water and electricity supply, CampingCard accepted. Beautiful swimming facility with slides and toddler area...NegativesNoneVery nice, well-kept family campsite - child-friendlyIn addition to the advantages: small supermarket available with bread/roll service. The old town of Troyes is half an hour away by car and well worth a visit. The large lake offers further leisure activities.Automatically translated.
Harald B.September 2018AdvantagesAcceptable restaurant, large comfort pitchesNegativesThe hustle and bustle at the lake at weekends is a nuisanceOnly too good to pass throughUnfortunately we were only passing through for 2 nights, but we really liked the place. The staff were cheerful and friendly, even when it was busy. The pitches were very large and clean, half gravel and half grass. Almost all with electricity and fresh and waste water on site. The sanitary facilities... in sufficient numbers are relatively clean and well maintained, but only 1 hook in the shower is not enough. The showers in the ladies' area have lacked basic cleaning for days, the sockets for hairdryers are cheekily placed, only accessible with a minimum height of 165 cm. The offer in the restaurant is acceptable, we only tested the wine and found it to be good. The swimming pool with its large slide and almost 100 sun loungers was used by young and old alike.Automatically translated.- susan janice H.July 2018AdvantagesIn the evening it was absolutely quiet at the campsite after 10 pm, I thought it was greatNegativesThere were not enough restaurants to eat out.Short vacation at the lake Lac dòrientWe, I 65 years with son 40 years and dog were absolutely thrilled with the campsite with the Lac only 200 meters away, WHERE DOGS ARE ALSO ALLOWED TO SWIM, but not everywhere, a part was separated for children bathing etc, dogs are not allowed there. Completely fine. The Lac has crystal clear water and... everything kept very clean. The campsite staff was very very friendly and helpful, a praise to the woman who sold baguettes in the morning, always smiling and friendly face for everyone. The sanitary area was super clean and had plenty of space in it. We will go there again on vacation.Automatically translated.
Dirk H.July 2018Advantages-Location on the lake -electricity, water, waste water on site -Ordinary sanitary facilitiesNegatives-nothing for dogs -in summer hopelessly overcrowded and halligalliOvervalued in our viewIn my opinion, the campsite has almost nothing special to offer. The lake is across the road, huge, but also public. Completely overcrowded in summer. Just like the campsite pool. The pitches were parceled out, but some were quite uneven. What is great, however, is that there is electricity, water and... waste water on the spacious pitches. The sanitary facilities are good. However, it reaches its limits when fully occupied. There are no sockets for a hairdryer. We were very happy with the French about the national holiday and winning the World Cup. But the noise level knew no time limits. The party went on until the early hours. So if you are looking for France's Lloret de Mar, you will find it here. The dog costs extra. But there are no dog extras. Neither a bag, nor a dog shower or a gate out to a walkway. We left early, exasperated. No refund possible. We will certainly not come here again.Automatically translated.
Kerstin I.June 2017AdvantagesSanitary, pool, cleanliness, friendlinessNegatives---A worthwhile interim destinationWe actually only wanted to spend one night here on the way home. We ended up spending three. The site has a very good infrastructure, from the spacious and clean sanitary buildings to the pool area, the small store and the restaurant. The pitches are also large, equipped with all connections and well adapted to the partly old trees. The ACSI card allows you to stay at this high-quality site at a reasonable price in the low season.Automatically translated.
Bianca R.June 2017Beautiful place by the lakeStayed here for one night while passing through, very friendly welcome, large pitches, very clean and large sanitary building, swimming pool, bar, store etc. Would love to come back for a longer stay.Automatically translated.- Ilona B.May 2017AdvantagesClean and numerous sanitary facilities. Lovingly landscaped and well-kept grounds.NegativesA lot of dogs.Square invites you to linger longerPlace belongs in the "5-star" category. Highly recommended! If you don't like dogs, you should avoid the campsite.Automatically translated.
- Volker S.September 2016AdvantagesLarge pitches, very well-kept groundsBeautiful place close to the lakeWe used this site as a transit site and were pleasantly surprised by the location and especially by the friendliness of the staff. The pitches are very spacious and the whole site is very well maintained.Automatically translated.
André F.July 2016AdvantagesEverything on site. Bathing / pool / playground / shopping / restaurant / and quite quiet at night.NegativesUpscale price range.Good starting point to explore the parkWe took this site as a stopover and stayed for three nights. When we arrived, the entrance area was parked up with camping vehicles so we had to leave our train on the road which was not exactly conducive to other traffic. Although the site was full, the friendly lady allocated us a pitch. The pitches... are generously sized. There are fresh water and waste water connections on the pitches. The sanitary facilities were clean and in order. At the entrance area there is a pool area with outdoor pool and indoor pool as well as a water slide. There is also a playground with a bouncy castle and trampoline. There is also a small store with the essentials and a restaurant by the entrance area, as well as entertainment for children in the afternoons. WIFI is only available in the entrance area. The prices are in the upper class for a four-star campsite, but are okay for this campsite. The campsite has its own website, but you can't get information in German. There is a lake nearby for swimming and various opportunities for water sports. The site is also suitable for exploring the park and the Champagne region.Automatically translated.
Joachim L.September 2015AdvantagesCentrally located; clean.Great place on the LacA beautiful spot on Lac d'Orient. Be sure to book in the high season. A great starting point for exploring the lakes in the area.Automatically translated.- Theodor v.August 2015AdvantagesCleanliness, good service at the reception, washing machines, store on site, great lake with sandy beach!NegativesLoudness, pool rules and hardly any swimming opportunities for adults, no ambience, club character with "wrist cuffs" ;-)Looks beautiful, but is not idyllicMobile home rating: clean, hooks for towels were missing, very hot "sleeping in a sardine tin", terraces visible - too few bushes/flowers for privacy and a cozy ambience. Lake and pool: Lake top and pool a flop! The lake was great for sunbathing and swimming. Very suitable for children, especially small... ones. The pool was not designed for adults to swim properly. Strict conditions on how you can enter the pool area: only barefoot, no food at the pool, stony ground that makes you think twice about getting up from your deck chair to go to the water. The music is very loud in the evening. Children certainly love the entertainment, but unfortunately the music (Mr. Lover lover, DJ Bobo...) often goes on until 10pm/11pm. Unbearable with small children who go to bed earlier!Automatically translated.
- Marc J.August 2014AdvantagesVery clean, well-equipped sanitary facilities, familiar atmosphere, quiet.Negativeslarge supermarket in approx. 10 KMQuiet, clean and well-keptCamped here with the family at the end of August 2014: Sanitary super, clean and spacious. Very well-kept new facility with heated outdoor pool, slide paradise and small indoor pool. Perfect for families! Champagne as an excursion destination anyway. Minimarket a little expensive. Very friendly team....We will be backAutomatically translated.
- Katrin G.August 2013These were the nicest and cleanest sanitary facilities I have ever seen on a campsite! We arrived quite late (6pm) and although it said "complete", we still got a pitch. There was a playground, entertainment and bouncy castle for the children. And a nice, large swimming pool for everyone. The store only had a very small selection, if you were staying longer you would certainly shop elsewhere. Overall impression: good!Automatically translated.
Francois L.June 2012For our first outing in 2012, this campsite impressed us with its cleanliness, partly due to the new sanitary facilities. Nice indoor pool.

The sanitary facilities are exemplary.Automatically translated.
- U. S.June 2011We had chosen this campsite as a stopover for an overnight stay on our return journey from the Atlantic coast. Our first experience with a Kawan Village group campsite. It is located in a nature reserve and recreational area on Lac d'Orient, the third largest man-made lake in France in the Aube department... in Champagne. The campsite itself is very spacious with wide roads and paths, a pool, swimming pool, mobile homes, bar-restaurant (more of a snack bar) and a store. At first glance, everything looks quite nice, but we still couldn't warm to the site. When we arrived, it was quite full with campers, mainly from the Benelux countries and Great Britain. Nevertheless, there were still plenty of free pitches. We were allocated a pitch directly opposite a sanitary building at reception. As we were traveling with our dog and I was worried that he would certainly bark loudly at anything approaching the building in this busy area, I asked for a different pitch on the edge. Especially as the pitch assigned to us was also very shady under trees, was quite soggy from the rain of the previous days and was partially under water. There were gravelled, dry and free pitches a little further along the edge. Unfortunately, the reception staff were very inflexible and were unable to give us an alternative pitch. The sanitary building opposite us probably belonged to the older generation. There were three shower cubicles each for men and women - cramped and with no storage facilities. If all three cubicles were occupied, the drain was hopelessly overloaded and you were standing ankle-deep in your neighbors' soapy water. And that for a 4-star place - an absolute no-go. There is also a new and much more spacious sanitary building, which we would have preferred to use for a longer stay. Conclusion: this site was strategically located for us, the surroundings in a nature reserve including a lake with swimming/sailing/pedal boat facilities were also quite beautiful, but as far as friendliness and service are concerned, we cannot recommend this site. As transit holidaymakers, we don't expect a comfortable pitch in a prime location, but there should be a certain amount of courtesy with so much free capacity.Automatically translated.
- Mariele R.June 2011When we arrived around midday, it was no longer possible to check in as it was lunchtime. So we stood in front of the barrier in the blazing sun for almost 2 hours, behind us it was jammed up to the road, as more and more people wanted to get onto the pitch. There was no going forwards or backwards.... In addition to the newest lower part with unpaved pitches, there were still some free pitches in the main part, but some of them were probably reserved. We did get the pitch we wanted after the lunch break. The campsite is under new management this season and the reception staff were always very friendly and helpful. The lady also speaks good German. A lot has changed compared to last year. The site here is very busy at weekends, when it's quite noisy. The small sports field is often used by young people until late in the evening. The quality of the restaurant has also suffered. Whereas the pizzas used to be really tasty and prepared by hand, they are now just frozen products. The restaurant is not really cozy, no tablecloths, the TV is constantly flickering, the food is like a snack and the service is unmotivated. In the evening it was disco time in the restaurant/bar until well after midnight. Sanitary area was well maintained, unfortunately the rinsing water was only lukewarm. The cleanliness of the pool area was commendable, as were the tentative attempts to beautify the place with flowers.Automatically translated.
