- Benjamin P.July 2024AdvantagesBeautiful location right on the shores of Lake Oranäsasjön. Very friendly operators who take very good care of their guests.NegativesIf you are looking for absolute silence, you may feel disturbed by the adjacent road.Beautiful small campsite by the lakeWe (two adults, one 6-year-old child) enjoyed our time VERY much!
The view of the lake, the opportunity to make a campfire in the evening, the very friendly operators, the great mini golf course, the boat rental, the delicious pastries and the peaceful atmosphere all helped to make the vacation a complete... success.
There is also plenty to experience away from the campsite: Visits to various glassblowing workshops, trips to moose parks, great bike rides through the woods, etc.
The adjacent road is audible, but not particularly disturbing.
The sanitary facilities are clean and functional, even if they are a bit old. Use is free for campers (no additional shower chips or similar required).
If you like, you can order bread rolls for breakfast the day before or buy delicious sweet pastries during the day.
The boat rental offers canoes, rowing boats and SUPs by the hour or day at reasonable prices.
The pitches are spacious, so we had plenty of room to set up a table and chairs outside the awning with our caravan and large awning and enjoy breakfast with a view of the lake.
Many thanks to Romy and Chris for letting us stay at your fantastic campsite!Automatically translated. - R-O. M.July 2023AdvantagesThe location by the lake, friendliness of the operators, cleanliness - a great "base camp" for excursions in Smaland, shopping in Glasriket and sightseeing in the city of Kalmar. Day trips to the island of Öland are also possible.NegativesNone that are worth mentioningGreat CP in a very nice location on the lakeDiscovered as a stopover on a tour to northern Sweden and spontaneously extended, which speaks for the qualities of this very beautifully located CP. The campsite is a manageable size and in some areas is reminiscent of nature campsites in much more northerly parts of the country.
Pleasant atmosphere, you immediately feel at home even as a solo camper. A repeat visit is therefore not out of the question - an absolute recommendation.Automatically translated. - Ilka H.July 2023Advantagesgreat location, beautiful places directly on the lake with a great view, close to nature, nice atmosphere, lovingly prepared bike tours available at receptionNegativesyou can hear and see the road a littleThank you!We really liked the campsite and immediately felt at home. Great view from the front pitches, a nice, quiet atmosphere, lots of nature and a friendly, helpful owner couple. Thank you!!!Automatically translated.
- Ulf P.August 2022AdvantagesThat it is quiet and very nice staff nice bike and hiking trailsNegativesThere is nothing negativePensionerHave been there every year for 10 years. You always feel welcome and if you need help the campsite owner is always there. Perfect place for relaxation and always as quiet and peacefulAutomatically translated.
- Thom H.July 2022AdvantagesLovingly maintained site by the owners. Sanitary facilities spotless. Cooking facilities, as you often find in Sweden. Strategically located for exploring the various glassworks and the moose park in Nybro by bike or car.NegativesWe have not found any.Let your mind wander and relax.I finally lost my heart to Sweden at this wonderful place.
We were given a very friendly and uncomplicated welcome by the owner couple Romy + Chris.
We really appreciated the direct access to Lake Orranäsasjön for swimming.
There is a lot to discover in the glass kingdom (Glasriket). Let Chris + Romy give you tips accordingly. There is extensive information material in several languages in the entrance area.Automatically translated. - rico b.June 2022AdvantagesDirectly on the lake Clean sanitary facilitiesNegativesOccasional car noises from the name of the country road.Cozy CP with nice owners.The campsite is lovingly run by a German couple. The campsite is located on a large lake and of course has a bathing area with a jetty and a very good mini-golf course on the campsite itself.
In the surrounding area you can go hiking, cycling, fishing or explore the lake by canoe. There is a small store... in the village. The nearest larger town is Nybro, where you can get everything you need.
I also recommend the Belgian waffles on the campsite.
All in all, I can only recommend the campsite.Automatically translated. - Marina B.August 2021AdvantagesThe location on the lake and the many sunsets are fantastic. As the owners are from Germany, there were no communication problems. Great campfire. Children make friends quickly, the site is easy to navigate. Many small and large excursion destinations in the area, for which we also received tips from Romy.NegativesThe showers could be more modern. I didn't mind, but it's a bit difficult with children if the water temperature is difficult to adjust. However, everything was clean.Summer vacation 2021 for 8 nightsWe had chosen this place because of its location and were not disappointed. We felt very relaxed after just 3 days. You can spend most of your vacation on the campsite if you just want to enjoy the peace and quiet and the lake, but there are also lots of excursion options.Automatically translated.
- Christa W.May 2021AdvantagesDog exercise area, directly on the lakeNegativesdue to C.unfortunately cafe closedWell-kept placeBeautiful meadow with trees directly on the lake. Nice for hiking, cycling etc. Dz no cafe open. No stores in the immediate vicinity. There are also rental cottages.Automatically translated.
- Rüdiger H.August 2020AdvantagesBeautiful location by the lakeNegativesthe groundsmanNice place to recommendA beautiful site, on a meadow with trees.
We were right by the lake, which is of course the first choice. The pitch was hardly occupied and there was plenty of space. The sanitary facilities were ok and clean.
Then a so-called "cuddle camper" arrived who said we absolutely had to take part in his family... life. At our request, he asked us to stand as it is generally customary, as there was plenty of space, he called the groundsman who was of the opinion that we simply had to accept this.
He didn't know the customs of mutual respect. It was probably about renting out the pitch in any case.
Otherwise it was a nice stay and a nice greeting to the crew of the fire brigade....Automatically translated.Answered from Orrefors Camping September 2, 2020Dear Rüdiger H.
In the situation you have described, mutual respect starts with respecting the so-called "camping rules" that are customary in the country. Whether a motorhome is positioned forwards or backwards on its pitch does not matter, at least here in the country (and in many others), as long... as sufficient space is left to the neighbor.
Our pitches at the edge of the lake are a good 8m wide.... they stood with their vehicle backwards on the right-hand boundary of the right-hand pitch... the guest they described as a "cuddly camper" chose the pitch to the left of them and parked his vehicle on his left-hand boundary.... There was about 11-12m of space between the vehicles.
They even rejected his offer to move one space further to the left, even though there would then have been almost 20 meters of free space between their vehicles, on the grounds that they wouldn't let them look at their plates..... The guest should follow an old camper law and park his vehicle backwards.
We regret that we did not meet their requirements for "properly regulated site regulations" and wish them better luck in the future when choosing their vacation destination.Automatically translated. - Heiko B.June 2020AdvantagesLovingly maintained by friendly German-speaking operators. Sanitary facilities clean and sufficient. Great location right on the lake. Small and cozy.NegativesRoad quite close, but not very busy.Small relaxing quiet placeLovingly maintained by friendly German-speaking operators. Sanitary facilities clean and adequate. Very empty during our stay.
Pitch directly on the lake, 1st row with fireplace.
Very beautiful nature. Hiking, cycling, swimming, boat trips...Automatically translated. - Timm S.June 2020AdvantagesGreat sunsets, lots of fireplaces, seating in case of rain, sauna, showers without chip card, lots of greenery around, very friendly contact with the owners dog-friendlyNegativesExpressway 50m away (but not so busy!) Sanitary facilities are "ok" No shopping facilities in the immediate vicinitySuper place!A great CP for several days. We were lucky enough to get a pitch right by the lake with its own fireplace. One evening they even fired up the sauna for us and provided a small wooden hut for 2 rainy days. There is a lot of greenery around the campsite and in the evening you can hardly hear anything from the highway! We would love to come back to experience many beautiful sunsets and can warmly recommend the campsite!Automatically translated.
- Benjamin P.July 2019AdvantagesI have always been particularly struck by the friendliness and super service of the operatorsNegativespractically none for me, some may be disturbed by the passing road during the day, but in the evening and at night it is very quiet heremy place of longing in SwedenFantastic location right on the lake, very quiet with a high recreational effect, boat rental incl. life jackets, mini golf, very well-kept facilities, but still close to nature and not so strictly parceled out, beautiful trees that provide pleasant shade, extremely nice hosts; we were here for the first... time and immediately fell in love with this place; tip: enjoy the sunset over the lake and experience the midnight silence with residual light and a starry skyAutomatically translated.
- Grit S.July 2019AdvantagesClean sanitary facilities, supply and disposal, cooking and washing-up facilities, small recreation room, sauna, mini golf, bathing areaNegativesI have not found anyQuiet, natural site with super-friendly site operators.We ended up here by chance. We felt very comfortable. You can also spend several days here. There are plenty of activities. Glass blowing, shopping, elk park, hiking, zipline... The site operators are extremely friendly and always approachable. Bread roll service, advice on activities. The sanitary facilities are clean, but too few showers for the size of the site.Automatically translated.
- Sylvia S.June 2019AdvantagesSurroundings, nice operators, cleanlinessBeautiful and super niceWe are here for the second time and this is certainly the last time. Beautiful surroundings, very nice quiet site, clean sanitary facilities. But the best thing is the campsite operators and the waffles on offer here. Friendly, understanding, uncomplicated. Thank you for a wonderful vacation.Automatically translated.
- Tobias J.May 2019AdvantagesPure natureNegativesNoneSweden the way you want itA very natural site with the possibility to stand directly on the lake. Super nice operators (German emigrants). There are two very nice moose parks nearby. In the middle of the glass kingdom you also have the opportunity to buy beautiful souvenirs. If you want to relax with waffles by the lake, go fishing... or pick mushrooms and berries, you should definitely try this place out. The sanitary facilities are typically Swedish and rather basic, but absolutely fine.Automatically translated.
- Elke K.August 2018AdvantagesLocation by the lakeNegativesNoisy street, unkempt kitchen and toilets, narrow parking spacesUnfortunately not entirely satisfiedWe decided to go to this site because of the good comments. We were lucky and got a pitch right by the lake. Please note: you have to stand "lengthways", but this is an insurance requirement and is often the case. So you can't sit under the awning and look out over the lake. The operator is nice, but... I've never experienced it any other way in Sweden. So far, everything is wonderful. We found the pitches very cramped, we've been vacationing in Scandinavia for 25 years, but we've never had neighbors so close. It wasn't so nice because you involuntarily watch each other all the time. We found the noise from the road very annoying. It is very busy and very close. What we didn't like at all was the kitchen. We found it poorly equipped and dingy. Otherwise, we like to cook in the central kitchen areas on vacation, where you can chat with other campers, find out news and get good tips. Here we didn't. The toilets and showers were also dingy. We don't mind old buildings, but please keep them clean. There was dirt in the corners, on the pipes and it was really unpleasant to have to clean up with a squeegee after showering. We obviously have a different point of view to the campers who have already rated here - we won't be returning here.Automatically translated.
- Kiki s.August 2018AdvantagesWaffles in the cafe were delicious. Large pitches.NegativesUnfortunately, I don't like shower curtainsVery nice serviceMy numerous questions were answered quickly and friendly by email in advance. We stayed 4 nights directly on the lake, the road was audible but didn't bother us. We liked the cafe. There is a dog park, you can play boules or mini golf and hire canoes.Automatically translated.
- Renate S.August 2018AdvantagesGreat locationNegativesShower, cleanliness when washing upVery idyllic with small flawsThe site is really very idyllic with plenty of pitches of a sufficient size right by the lake. There is mini golf and a boules court. Apart from the adjacent road, it was very quiet. The road didn't bother me personally. You could order bread rolls in advance. What I didn't like so much was the shower.... Shower curtains are not my thing. There were two showers per gender. One shower was lockable with a small anteroom, as usual. The other only had a shower curtain. When you had finished showering, you were practically standing directly in the anteroom. That was definitely not enough privacy for me. Thank goodness the other shower was always free. But it was clean. I would have liked a bit more cleanliness when washing up. Old splashes were not removed from the walls. The draining grids were totally filthy. There was an old garbage can next to it. Overall, however, we still felt comfortable.Automatically translated.

- Michael D.July 2018AdvantagesPeace, cleanliness, cozinessNegativesnot for us, but the road bothers some journeymensame procedure as every year!Hello Romy, hello Chris! We've just seen that we haven't left a review yet! We've been coming to you for years and have never rated it! Well, the repeat rate should speak for itself! The site is on a busy road, but that has never bothered us before. If you want absolute peace and quiet, you should probably... try your luck 800 kilometers further north, but you'll miss out on other amenities, such as the accessibility of many great destinations in the Orrefors area! Regarding the cleanliness of the kitchen area, I would just like to say: Dear complainers, you're messing this up yourselves! If you cook or wash up, you should just clean up your mess and it's fine for the next person - simple, isn't it? You can't expect the operator to stand behind you with a rag and clean up after you! We are delighted with the site and the operators, keep up the good work! We'll definitely be back! Best regards, Kirsten, Michael and PepeAutomatically translated.
