- Madlen T.March 2024AdvantagesIdyllic, quiet location, perfect with children and dog. We are there about twice a year (medieval market) We have always loved it! When you register you can buy coffee, shower gel etc. Buy. Uncomplicated, relaxed registration. Even if many write that the bathroom is dirty...you have to consider how many people use it at events.NegativesThe only drawback: almost always cold water (inconvenient for children and women😅🙈)IdyllicFor the most part everything was great except for the above!
We will definitely be back again this yearAutomatically translated. - Werner K.May 2023AdvantagesViel Natur, viel Sehenswertes in der Nähe.NegativesKostenpflichtiger StauseeFerienhaus auf dem WaldcampingplatzWir hatten ein Ferienhaus direkt auf dem Campingplatz gebucht. Das urig eingerichtetete Häuschen war sauber und gepflegt. Der Platz liegt dierekt im Wald, sehr ruhig und mit viel Natur.
- Gerd N.May 2023AdvantagesNice quiet campsite.NegativesSomewhat uneven terrain.Camping for nature loversNice quiet location between large trees and clearings.
We had not expected so many beautiful hiking opportunities near Chemnitz, stayed longer than planned and will certainly come back again.
Contrary to many other reviews, the sanitary facilities were clean and in order during our visit.Automatically translated. - Joachim E.April 2023AdvantagesBeautiful, quiet campsite with lots of nature.NegativesUnfortunately, campers cannot use the nearby reservoir free of charge.Beautiful natural campsiteThe campsite is right next to the forest and there is a swimming lake nearby. Unfortunately, campers have to pay an entrance fee.
However, there are lots of things to do, especially for families with children.
There is also a small castle and a show mine nearby.
The Wurzelschänke on the campsite makes... a very rustic, romantic impression, but was unfortunately still closed when we visited.
The sanitary facilities are not the newest but were always clean.
The operator was friendly and helpful and gave us lots of tips for things to do, especially as the weather wasn't quite so nice.Automatically translated. - Sven "Knausrich" B.February 2023AdvantagesThe calmNegativesThe weatherUnfortunately dirty weatherCalled, received brief instructions and moved into our pitch. Unfortunately there was no electricity at our pitch, but one phone call later this problem was also solved. The groundsman is a nice guy. The sanitary building was clean during our stay. We didn't try out the showers. Unfortunately we had... really bad weather, so we didn't see much of the surrounding area except on the way to the bakery in the morning. And remember, camper van drivers greet each other.Automatically translated.
- Sandra R.June 2022AdvantagesQuiet location - idyllic and yet close to the cityNegativesNo warm/hot water for showering or washing up. Dirty toilets. Sanitary building not well cleaned. Shower head splashes in all directions. Some shower/toilet doors are difficult or impossible to lock. The rim of a washbasin for washing up is broken. There are too few showers/sinks available for the size of the pitch. There are fewer power connections than pitches. When races take place at the Sachsenring, the site is overcrowded. Nevertheless, there are no more showers etc. and, above all, no more hot water.No recommendationSanitary building is dirty. The shower heads splash in all directions. Some of the toilets are dirty for a very long time. The sanitary facilities are too small for the size and utilization of the site, especially when races take place at the Sachsenring. A total of 6 showers 3x ladies, 3x men. Toilets... 5 each and some of them are not lockable and without toilet paper. 2 sinks, one of which the rim is broken. There was only lukewarm water at most. We stayed there for 3 nights and we will definitely never stay at this site again. The operator can't deal with criticism or references to dirty toilets and cold showers. He even wanted to expel us from the site. Furthermore, he did not grant the discount of the Freeontour card, although it is advertised on the homepage of Freeontour.Automatically translated.Answered from Campingplatz Oberrabenstein May 3, 2023We inform all those who write to us for this one weekend a year that there will be restrictions. With the high number of guests, the cleaning simply cannot keep up and the hot water is used up after 2 hours. However, it doesn't make sense to significantly expand capacity for one weekend a year. We had also ordered porta-potties, but nobody wants to use them.
We recommend that you use the Ankerberg at the Sachsenring.Automatically translated. - André K.June 2021AdvantagesPeace and quiet, close to the Rabenstein forestNegativesno mowed lawn, no trimmed trees and bushes, dirty sanitary buildingShort trip at the weekendCP Oberrabenstein is a very nice site with a slight slope, but this can be compensated for with ramps on the caravan. The Saxon city cycle path runs directly alongside the campsite and other hiking trails lead through the Rabenstein forest. You can also get to Chemnitz quickly by car.
I'm not quite... sure what maintenance work has been done here during the recent standstill. The grass on our meadow was a good 30 cm high. We couldn't drive right up to the row of trees with the camper van because the branches were hanging way down. The paths to the electricity boxes are very long at some pitches.
Basically, the sanitary building is nicely done, but if the showers and toilets have experienced the last thorough cleaning after the construction of the house, it is very unpleasant.
All in all. If you not only collect the money, but also reinvest some of it, the site definitely has potential.Automatically translated. - Martin W.June 2021AdvantagesThe tent pitches are very good. The location in the forest is very nice.NegativesThe playground doesn't appeal to our children. So rather something for a night with the bike or a transit. Very good with a dog though. The electricity has to be pulled a little further in. And that is not safe. We don't think the cleanliness of the sanitary facilities is good. Above all, there has been enough time for this recently.Well, too badWe were with children who would find it difficult to keep themselves occupied. We thought the place was great. We wouldn't go there again just because of the sanitary facilities. If adult men with bikes are traveling everything OK otherwise you have to have a thick skin. It doesn't look like it would be like that right now, the dirt is old.Automatically translated.
- Karl Heinz O.August 2020AdvantagesLocationNegativessloping, uneven parking spaces Sanitary facilities cramped and outdated Electricity expensivelow prices, but not entirely without reasonThe location right next to the Rabenstein Forest is ideal for amateur athletes, which offers challenging running routes and beautiful trails for cross-country and mountain bikers due to its differences in altitude. The nearby reservoir is open to the public. The nearest supermarket is approx. 5 minutes... away by car.
About the site itself: the pitches are unparceled, very sloping and uneven, the paths to the electricity are very long depending on the pitch. Everything looks a little dated. The sanitary facilities (men's) are very cramped, as are the shower cubicles. I always had hot water when showering, but unfortunately never when washing up.
But for what is on offer, the price is probably okay.
Except for the electricity. I think a flat rate of €3 per night is pretty steep, especially as electricity/kWh is also listed on the website. But nobody asked how I would like my electricity. Only whether.Automatically translated. - Melanie H.July 2020AdvantagesQuiet and idyllic location, nice and friendly permanent campers, site not too big with free choice of pitch and bread service on advance orderNegativesCleanliness and tidy cleaning is probably a foreign word, playground more than outdated and unkempt, barrier permanently open, 24 hours coming and goingPure nature, no hygieneWe arrived very spontaneously with 4 children and stayed 8 nights (but were more or less just out and about). The place is very central and yet really very quiet. It has a lot of potential if you would invest and then of course you can charge differently. It is very outdated and you can see the age and... disinterest in the now dangerous playground equipment and the sanitary building. Requests for superficial cleaning are met with a smile, but nothing is done. The bread roll service is great and the staff are basically nice, even the permanent campers are very friendly. What also doesn't work at all and where stupid excuses are made is the barrier, which is permanently open 24 hours a day, which means that cars come and go 24 hours a day. Whoever wants to (as the reception is not permanently manned) arrives at the weekend, it resembles a party landscape, which massively disturbs the peace and quiet and makes the already far too small sanitary building (4 toilets and 3 showers each) even dirtier and is only "cleaned" once a day, if you want to talk about cleaning at all. The lady needs a course in cleaning. Hot water is also only sporadically available in one of the men's showers, for the ladies it doesn't matter whether in the morning, at noon or in the evening, all 3 were always max fart warm. It's a shame and, above all, there should be more cleaning at the moment. No matter what the arguments are, it was definitely only "cleaned" once a day and soap was always and constantly empty. There was also only lukewarm or rather cold water for washing up. 2 washing machines are available, cost 3€ each and if the electricity is not turned on again at the reception, you can get your laundry out of the machine standing in the dirt. I find it a bit carelessly handled and would have a lot of simple things for optimal improvement. Photos of the bathroom were taken 10 minutes after the "cleaning".Automatically translated.
- Ron M.June 2020AdvantagesTop location, many destinations all aroundNegativesSanitary facilities urgently need more maintenance and the hot water supply can be expanded,Space with lots of potentialThe campsite is superbly located and laid out, everything from tents to luxury mobile homes was represented. The sanitary facilities have been prepared with love for nature, but the cleaning leaves a lot to be desired. We were glad that the camping toilet was there. In times of a pandemic, they should... be cleaned much more often than once, even the pools that are closed. Toilets were constantly dirty. Showers borderline, calcified shower heads, left QTips, socks etc. and that daily.
Unfortunately, this drags this otherwise beautiful place down. The complaints about the toilet block have been going on for years (see Google).Automatically translated. - Andreas N.May 2020AdvantagesVery quietNegativesVery sloping pitchesQuiet placeIt is a very quiet place. Sanitary facilities are okay but could be cleaner and cleaned more often. Ideal for hiking and walking. Too bad that there is no access to the reservoir from the campsite. The operators were very nice and friendly.Automatically translated.
- B. B.August 2019AdvantagesPeace, LocationNegativesSanitary,Access,partly long power cables necessaryIt gets better...We were back on the site for 4 days after a long time and a lot has changed, for the better. The sanitary facilities have been partially renovated, unfortunately they were always dirty, some of the dirt has been there for a long time and was not caused by campers, such as massive cobwebs in the shower.... Partial smell of urine, why no idea! The pitches are from flat to uneven and steep, depending on where you stand, sometimes a longer power cable is necessary, water is only available at water taps, chemical spout at the entrance, but always fresh air and no odor nuisance. Very good for hiking and walking, in 10 minutes you are in Limbach where there are all stores or to Chemnitz. Everyone was always friendly to us, whether reception or permanent campers. The access road to the CP should be urgently repaired by the city of Chemnitz, such a huckelpiste is an imposition and not pleasant for caravans or motorhomes. Coming from the A4, the site is very well signposted and it takes about 5 minutes to reach the site, but you have to turn right into an almost invisible entrance, which could be difficult for tandem axles. From there the bumpy road goes up to the CP. If you have a sponsor and can invest, e.g. straighten pitches (terraces, parcelling, ....) the place could get a lot more stars, but it has the location to feel good.Automatically translated.
- Uwe M.May 2019Advantages- Great location - ideal for dog ownersNegatives- Extremely sloping camping meadow - Depending on the pitch, long distances to the power connections - washrooms are cleaned too rarelySuper location unfortunately with flawsI stayed at the site for two nights at the beginning of May, with a caravan and two dogs. Registration was quick and uncomplicated. Because there was not much going on, there was a free choice of pitches, either at the motorhome pitches or on the camping meadow. I opted for the camping meadow as there... was very little chance of satellite reception from the motorhomes due to the large deciduous trees. The whole site is on a slope. The permanent camping pitches around the camping meadow are terraced. Unfortunately, the camping meadow is not. I have never stood on such an extreme slope (see photo), luckily I had enough stones to put under the supports and boards to put under a wheel. Here it would have been appropriate to lay out the pitch in terraces. The rows are divided by young trees. It is not entirely clear how you should position yourself in the individual rows, this is probably determined by the first person to stand. So where the access road is and where the pitches are. There are two electricity boxes, i.e. the path is a little longer depending on the pitch. Long cables are required. Satellite reception is definitely possible on the central pitches, but the trees on the edge could put a spanner in the works. Two water points are ok for the size of the meadow. There is no WiFi, but cell phone reception is great. The sanitary building is close to the reception building, but due to the size of the site this is not a problem, the distance is not that far. Not so impressive from the outside, but nicely done inside. I was there for four nights. It was clean on the first day, but then it got dirtier from day to day. Once I saw a young lady refilling the toilet paper. However, she didn't think it was necessary to at least clean the floor. Hot water for showers is included, but the shower heads could be cleaned or changed. The water splashes in all directions. The shower screens are also leaky, so that the water runs into the anteroom. The toilets are a bit cramped and there is no hook in the toilet cubicles to hang up your jacket. The site is ideal for dog owners. Outside the site there are lots of lovely paths through the forest for walking your dog. It's a shame about the site, because the weak points could easily be eliminated and then it would certainly be a nice place worth recommending. As it is, I wouldn't necessarily come back, there are alternatives in the area.Automatically translated.Answered from Campingplatz Oberrabenstein May 17, 2019Regarding the square, unfortunately the area, as a former castle park, is under monument protection and may not be changed, we have already had a lot of trouble because of the straightening of some permanent parking spaces.
As for the electricity connections, the cables all date back to the GDR era,... which means that an extension is only possible at considerable cost, which we cannot afford at the moment; the renovation of the sanitary facilities has priority.
Regarding the sanitary facilities, as you will have noticed in May, we are still in the process of renovating them, and at the same time there is a lack of cleaning service or cleaning staff, so we all have to manage this ourselves on the side, which unfortunately does not always work out, for which we must apologize. We hope that we will soon have a regular cleaning service again.Automatically translated. - Anette W.May 2018AdvantagesIn the middle of nature and yet close to the cityNegativesInclined position and insufficient power connectionHip square with forgivable flawsLast Whitsun weekend, our route took us to this lovely campsite at short notice. The pitches are not parceled out and you can choose the spot you like best. One problem, however, is the slope, which turned out to be almost impossible to level out. As caravan owners normally only need one wheel chock,... we didn't have any more in our luggage. Fortunately, we had some nice neighbors who were able to help us out, but the 2.30 m wide caravan was still leaning. The second problem was the power connection. Firstly, 25m of cable was just about enough and secondly, the fuse protection is very low at approx. 6A (1200W). When operating the fridge, coffee machine and radio, the fuse tripped when the hot water heater came on. The use of other appliances (hairdryer or similar) was out of the question. Despite everything, we felt very comfortable. If we come back, we will simply prepare ourselves for this and bring enough under-building material with us ;)Automatically translated.
- Werner B.April 2018AdvantagesCleanliness in the wash house and WC's as well as in the whole area. Dogs are very welcome, very beautiful surroundings for hikingNegativesVery limited shopping facilities on site, but very good shopping facilities in the village (approx. 4-5km).Lovingly designed CP with very attentive careThe small site is very clearly laid out and clean in all respects. About half of the pitches are permanent campers who are very friendly and helpful. Dogs are very welcome here and there are extensive opportunities for long walks in the adjacent wooded area. We would love to come back when we are in this area.Automatically translated.
- Emma K.September 2017AdvantagesPeace and quiet, hiking opportunitiesNegativesnone noticedRelaxing and hikingWe felt very comfortable. The operator is really very nice and uncomplicated, tries to make everything possible. A great area for hiking directly from the campsite. You feel very welcome with dogs.Automatically translated.
- Der U.September 2017AdvantagesVery friendly operators very easy to reach from the BAB clean delicious bread roll serviceNegativescurrent ( load ) of the fuses too low... watching tv and making coffee is not possible ;(very very friendlywere there for 1 day just passing through .... very friendly operators ... unfortunately the restaurant next door was closed ;( everything was very cozy... only drawback as soon as several consumers were connected the fuse in the power box came .... so it took forever until the coffee was through ;)Automatically translated.
- Susan G.September 2017AdvantagesCentral location and many different leisure activitiesNegativesCleanliness and furnishings of the bungalows inadequate.Bungalows rather not recommendedThe location of the campsite is central yet quiet. There is a wide range of leisure activities on offer in the immediate vicinity. The staff are friendly and courteous. The reception and grounds are lovingly designed. We used the bungalows and the mobile home for a weekend. However, the cleanliness and... furnishings are far from satisfactory. Old mattresses, cobwebs and a musty smell in the individual rooms do not invite you to relax. The oil radiators only fulfill their purpose to a limited extent and consume a lot of electricity, which is clearly noticeable when billing in real KWh consumed.DDR flair or not - but the bungalows are not recommended by us.Automatically translated.
