Camping Municipal De L'ile Reviews

Simple, inexpensive space
The site is located between a small airfield, a railroad line and the N 94 on the left bank of the River Durance, from which it is separated by a dusty access road to a pond. It is clearly showing its age. The tennis court, volleyball court, soccer pitch, mini golf, children's playground and boules pitch... have obviously not been cleared of vegetation or renovated for years and are probably only recognizable as such thanks to their use. Furthermore, the electricity network is outdated, rather weak and keeps breaking down. An additional long cable is an advantage because the power connections are sometimes far apart. The small (supervised) swimming pool with paddling pool is obviously better maintained, but has also seen better days. As it is also a public swimming pool, the hours of use may be restricted for guests of the campsite. The River Durance here is a cold and fast-flowing wild river and totally unsuitable for swimming. A pond with a circular path outside the southern end of the site is not permitted for bathing. The site is partially parceled out and has separate group pitches. Many pitches have no shade. It is divided into two areas by a small stream with a row of trees, with the area between the stream and the railroad line or the N 94 reserved for groups. This area is naturally very exposed to noise. During the day, minor disturbances caused by air traffic must be expected. The ground is partly uneven, gravelly and overgrown with a thin and dusty turf in summer. The access roads are asphalted, but sometimes quite bumpy due to tree roots. The sanitary facilities are spread over several small buildings, are kept simple and are cleaned at least twice a day. A washing machine is available. WIFI or WLAN is only available free of charge near the reception. The bar offers simple dishes at reasonable prices. Bread can be ordered. There is no store; you have to go to nearby St.-Crepin. The campsite is run by a friendly, young and committed team, but can only work with what the municipality provides as the campsite operator. You should not expect much from this site.

For shopping, you're pretty much stuck with a car to drive to Guillestre anyway.
campsite L'Ile
Quiet campground with spacious sites. River right next to the campsite which is ideal for canoeists. There are also a number of MTB routes starting from the campground which are very pleasant to ride. 1 mtb route is a family route, but the rest of the routes require some fitness and cycling skill.

Quietly located, very spacious site in a wide valley with a torrent next door; good for hiking; small restaurant on site with some dishes; no shopping facilities on site; swimming pool; clean sanitary buildings, in July there was almost nothing going on during our visit.
