We had a wonderful pitch paved with grass and a fantastic view of the lake, the ladies at reception were super nice, the site offers everything a camper needs, lots of sanitary blocks
Negativa
Many permanent campers with correspondingly old dwellings, sometimes unsightly sights, the garbage collection should come more often, the containers sometimes overflow, the sanitary house 7 should be better ventilated, but always clean
Dreamlike place at the Doktorsee
The reception was friendly and very nice, we were able to choose a pitch and it was fantastic - slightly elevated above the lake and paved - sanitary facilities not far away. You should have a bike with you, the site is huge and if you want bread rolls in the morning, it's sometimes a long way. The nearby town of Rinteln is beautiful and worth one or more visits.

Bottomless impudence
Simply a bottomless insolence, pure greed.
We booked weeks ago on the recommendation of the reception on the north shore from 27-03-2024-01-04-2024.
On recommendation: the pitches are bigger and we wanted to meet friends there.
As we had noticed that the pitches were flooded in winter, we had asked specifically... whether the pitches were OK and that you wouldn't sink there. We were told that everything was OK and if not, we would find other places. When we arrived, we could already see that the pitches were muddy. When maneuvering, the tires were already spinning. But we managed to park the caravan. Others had to be pulled with the wheel loader or tractor.
As it then started to rain, the pitches quickly became even worse. We quickly set up what we wanted to set up and then the pitch was no longer reasonably accessible. The attached picture doesn't even come close to reflecting it. Wacken sends its regards!!!.
The next day we asked if we could get other places, which was denied because everything was fully booked.
We spent the whole time walking around in rubber boots that were full of mud. The caravan was dirty inside and out.
We were looking forward to our first vacation of the year and then something like this happened. the pitches should have been closed. Everyone there was upset, not just us. So often cars or caravans were pulled out of the mud by the tractor. We left a day early because we'd had enough, but still had to pay the full price. We weren't given a single consideration, neither for the pitch rental nor for the electricity price.
The sanitary block was also outdated and not very clean. It barely served its purpose.
Simply a cheek!!!
That's what I call greed.
Never again this campsite!

-good location -1st row of pitches directly on the lake top -many wash houses -friendly reception -clean site -2 restaurants with food to go -Swimming lake
Negativa
-few garbage cans -shopping facilities could be more extensive as supermarkets are far away -smelly wash house 9
Very large place, well located and beautiful lake
We were there over Ascension Day. We had a pitch in the front row right by the lake. The pitch was clean and paved.
Water and electricity connections directly at the pitch.
We tried both restaurants and liked them both.
Very good cycle paths around the campsite.
We were close to the wash house number... 9, unfortunately there was a lot of unpleasant odors, but everything was clean.
Camping with a dog is also no problem here.
The campsite is mainly occupied by permanent campers, but there are still plenty of nice pitches in the front row.

A very bad place.
Unfortunately not a good rating...
We were lucky that we got a pitch on the very large CP that was still reasonably good.

Lots of permanent campers who littered their pitches. Maggots on the sidewalk, leftover food...

Sanitary 9 was by far the cleanest of the 10.

Most of the play equipment was broken.

No dog bag dispensers, no possibility to leave dogs outside.

Dear Melanie W.,

We are sorry that you did not feel comfortable at Doktorsee. However, your criticism is unfounded.

The sanitary facilities are cleaned and disinfected several times a day. Unfortunately, not all guests leave the sanitary facilities as you would wish. In such a case, we would appreciate... being informed of the condition so that we have the opportunity to remove any further soiling.

The play equipment is checked regularly and repaired immediately if something is not safe. Please contact us directly if you notice that someone has broken something. This is the only way we can change things.

The pitches of the permanent guests are leased to them and any guests are regularly informed if their leased item is not in a proper condition. Of course, it is unacceptable if someone does not dispose of leftover food properly - however, we are not aware of any maggot infestation and we are not responsible for or can control how all guests behave on the site.

For the sake of the environment, we at Erholungsgebiet Doktor-See GmbH have switched to biodegradable dog waste bags made of recycled paper and cardboard, which you can obtain free of charge from reception. Dogs must be kept on a leash on the entire site, but the recreation area is surrounded by meadows and fields where you can take your dog off the leash outside the general leash requirement in Lower Saxony.

Yours sincerely

The lake stinks and is very dirty. Not suitable for swimming
Not suitable for swimming
We were at the campsite at the weekend. We had chosen this large lake especially because the temperatures were over 30 degrees on the weekend. We arrived on Saturday afternoon and wondered why very few people were swimming in the lake when it was over 30 degrees. After checking in and setting up the... pitch, we went to the lake. The lake smells very bad and has a lot of algae. The color of the lake is green. Not visually pleasing. We got over ourselves and went in. The bottom is very muddy, best not to step on it with your feet.
Outside shower also stinks, spider webs and other garbage.
The sanitary facilities are very outdated and are not cleaned regularly.
Conclusion for us: once and never again. We would like to visit the pizzeria again, we have rarely eaten such a delicious pizza

Dear Pia B.,

We regret that you did not feel comfortable with us. Please contact us directly so that we can discuss this with you and offer you a different pitch closer to the bathing area, for example. The beach and sunbathing area were closed to day guests at the weekend to give all overnight guests... the opportunity to spend the day at the beach in a relaxed, stress-free manner and with sufficient distance. As you can see from the notices on your sanitary building, a shuttle was also provided from the more distant sites to the large sunbathing lawn.
The Doktorsee is and remains a natural lake and cannot be compared to a pool that is treated with chemicals. Aquatic plants and other (micro)organisms are important for keeping the lake's ecosystem intact - algae growth is also part of this. For this reason, however, there is a bathing zone that is separated from the rest of the lake and in which the development of algae can be contained to a certain extent.
Every day, employees collect garbage on the site, but each person is also responsible for their own garbage and unfortunately some people do not use the garbage cans that are set up specifically for this purpose.

There are nine sanitary buildings around the lake which are cleaned several times a day. If the state of cleaning leaves something to be desired, it would be very helpful if you could let us know so that we can make changes and inform the cleaning staff. Not far from your pitch and the sanitary building is another sanitary building, which was built in 2016 and to which you had access with a shower card.

Yours sincerely

Access to the lake No bathing facilities at all for dogs Blue-green algae was not pointed out
Not suitable for dogs
A huge campsite divided into individual areas. This makes it not seem so big. Not suitable for dogs as they are not allowed in lake 1. Dogs are allowed to swim in lake 2, but you can't get to a suitable spot, which is a shame. A note when checking in about the blue-green algae would have been appropriate....
The staff were all very, very friendly. The sanitary facilities were very clean.
Unfortunately, permanent campers populate most of the shore area so you only have the opportunity to get to the lake in a few places. In places where there were only permanent campers it was sometimes very dirty. It looked as if they wanted to get rid of their garbage, according to the motto "the operator will clean it up".
I found the other campers here to be extremely friendly, it was a real camping experience.
The night-time lighting around the lake was simply beautiful and made you dream.
I missed a few excursion tips on the information board.
For children the site is simply beautiful, lots of playgrounds and meadows where they can run around without parents having to worry.
As a dog owner, I won't be going there again as a dogless person again and again

Dear Sabine H.,

We are pleased that you generally enjoyed your stay at Doktorsee and would like to thank you for your kind words and constructive criticism.
Dogs are very welcome at Doktorsee. As you write, dogs are not allowed to swim in Lake I. We will be happy to provide you with information at reception... about access to Lake II so that your dog can swim there. The Weser also flows directly alongside the recreation area. In addition, there are three dog showers around the lake to give our four-legged guests a chance to cool off and/or remove any dirt.

The Doktorsee is classified as EU bathing water, which is why we work closely with the health authorities and regular samples are taken. In the 33rd calendar week, we received notification that a trace of blue-green algae had been detected in the last sample, whereupon appropriate notices were immediately published at the bathing areas, at www.doktorsee.de, in the notice boards at the sanitary buildings and at the main entrance, so that guests already present could also find out about this. All arriving guests (overnight and day guests) were informed by the reception staff before entering the site. In addition, the signs are a bathing warning explaining what to look out for when a blue-green algae bloom begins; there was and is currently no bathing ban for people.

The pitches for permanent camping guests are leased and guests are regularly informed if their pitch does not look tidy. Unfortunately, we have very limited powers in this regard and the leaseholders are responsible.

The Weserbergland and its surroundings offer a wide range of excursion possibilities, not all of which can be presented at a glance. Depending on your interests, you will receive suggestions at reception.

Kind regards

Unfortunately a bad rating
You are treated as a second-class person if you have not yet reached a certain age (presumably around 30). Even the greeting is like an impertinence. You notice the dislike right from the start. Why is there a youth area if it's obviously not wanted? Friends of ours were sent away at the entrance - after a long journey - because they were too "young" (21) to be allowed onto the family area or the many other areas available.

Dear Til G.,

People of all ages are welcome at Doktorsee. It is outrageous to claim that we treat some people as second-class citizens.
Doktorsee is a recreational area and in order to do justice to all guests, young adults can only stay overnight at Doktorsee in the youth area. As your friends had... not tried to register in advance, we were only able to explain to them on site that we could no longer offer them a place, as we are only allowed to accept a limited number of people on unparceled areas due to the regulations and measures to combat the coronavirus pandemic of our state government.

With kind regards

Many dogs are walked on the sunbathing lawn on the beach in the late afternoon or evening. Excrements of the animals also lay in the back passage to the beach. I strongly recommend banning dogs here and putting up appropriate signs. The showers were cold in the afternoon, although you have to pay 50 ct.
Good service again
The overall impression is very positive. The ladies at reception were very nice and courteous.
The complex is well run and the sanitary facilities are very clean.
In the afternoon there is hardly any hot water available for showering, although you have to pay 50 ct. extra.

The dog owners spoil the predominantly... positive impression, as they take their pets (who don't do anything like that) to the beach on the sunbathing lawn. Nobody sees anything behind the hedge. I recommend banning dogs here, as there are plenty of opportunities to walk them outside the campsite.

Road noise
Campsite with potential
The welcome at the site was very warm. The pitch itself was very large, clean and fenced off with hedges so that everyone had their privacy. The sanitary facilities were modern and clean.

There were only 2 sinks available for washing up, which I found a bit small.

The "residential area" of the permanent... campers was rather frightening. Very unclean and one caravan "clapped" on top of the other. It reminded me more of a ghetto. But you don't have to stay in these parts of the campsite.

The campsite would have so much more potential if the pitches right by the lake weren't only used by permanent campers.

The lake itself is rather dirty and a bit smelly. The lawns are well-kept.

The adjacent road is a bit of a nuisance.

You can go on nice long tours by bike.

All in all, it was a great vacation.

Hello Kati G.,

We are pleased that you generally had a good vacation.
The comfort pitches have a water connection directly at the pitch, which is why the existing washbasins have so far been sufficient for washing dishes, as many guests wash up directly at the pitch. Unfortunately, it is not possible... to add washbasins in the sanitary building at a later date, as there is no more space for them.

The Doktorsee is a natural lake, aquatic plants and other (micro)organisms are not dirt, but are important for ensuring that the lake's ecosystem remains intact so that many aquatic animals continue to have a home on and in the Doktorsee. This is not comparable to a pool that is treated with chemicals.

We are sorry that you were disturbed by the noise from the nearby road. Please speak to us directly about this next time or note in your reservation that you would like a quiet pitch and/or a pitch by the water. We have vacation pitches in several areas around the lake and could have recommended the pitches on the north beach, for example, which are somewhat secluded and therefore quiet and some of which are right on the water. You are sure to find something that meets your requirements.

Kind regards

Very noisy due to day bathers.
Unfortunately noisy and unclean due to day bathers
Great place, close to the town of Rinteln and close to the Weser (5 minutes by bike) with its own large bathing lake. Unfortunately, due to many day bathers, the toilets are sometimes unclean and very noisy. Otherwise very well organized and maintained. We will be back because of the location of the campsite near the Weser cycle path.

Great place, next year again!
We were there at Whitsun 2019 and were thrilled. There is a lot on offer. The site is generally very clean. Whenever you read reviews about the sanitary facilities not being clean, I ask myself whether these people shouldn't go to a hotel instead. It should be clear to everyone that the pitches are always... full at Whitsun and that there are sanitary facilities for several hundred people. At Whitsun there is table football, bingo and children's games. The stores have everything your heart desires. There are two restaurants on site, one Italian and one Greek, all top quality. The children had a lot of fun in the playground and on the slide into the lake. All in all a great place!

Long waiting times at the registration desk at peak times, chaos at the entrance
Whitsun vacation... we were there once, that's enough !
Very disappointed, very run-down, too few showers for so many guests, stood on the left side of the lake, the guests came over from the tent meadow to shower, which is not bad, but too little was cleaned. There were three showers and two sinks, so we had to wait, then we washed up at the caravan. The... campsite looks very run down, bad roads, pitches not big (a tree in the middle of our pitch) chestnut trees don't belong on the pitch either, I wouldn't want to stand there in the fall. Too bad for such a well located campsite on the lake.

Unkempt place inside, Sanitary facilities not clean Urine smell in the toilets
Unkempt place in need of renovation
We stayed at the campsite over Ascension Day. The location and leisure facilities in the front area were good and well maintained. Unfortunately, however, the further in you go, the darker/dirtier it felt like you were in a tunnel. The permanent campsites resemble a junkyard. There is simply no heart... in the matter. Sanitary building 5 was supposedly cleaned - unfortunately we could not confirm this on any of the days we spent there. Pitches top in size and facilities. We wonder where the 4 stars come from. Conclusion we will not come back and will not recommend the place.

Divided opinion
We were there over Father's Day. Maybe that's why the whole campsite was in full swing. The pitches themselves are good. However, the sanitary facilities and flushing facilities take some getting used to. The cleanliness was more of a station level. The water was dirty. Not suitable for swimming. The... campsite has some very run-down permanent pitches. I can't understand why nothing is being done by the operator. The campsite has more potential with the right concept. Some of the playgrounds are in need of renovation. I can't understand the four stars awarded by the ADAC. More like two stars. One positive thing I noticed was the very friendly staff.

A beautiful, clean and large campsite
The campsite at Doktorsee is halfway around the lake. There are many permanent campsites, but also many tourist campsites, some of which are right on the water. The toilet blocks are spread all over the site, so there is always a toilet block within walking distance. There is a wellness area with sauna... and massage and adjoining restaurant, then there is an Italian and a Greek on the site. There are 2 kiosks for quick shopping. The place is clean and also cheap.

The heart and soul of the matter is simply missing.
Unused potential
Hello, we took over a permanent pitch in June 2018 because we bought the caravan on it. The pitch was included. So we used it, even though we didn't know the site before. First of all, the positive things: - The staff have been friendly and helpful to us so far. - The beach with its slide is really nice.... - The sanitary facilities have always been properly cleaned. - Some sanitary blocks have been renovated and refurbished (partially or completely). - The food I've had the pleasure of trying so far has been of good quality for the site (currywurst, pizza, schnitzel, etc.) - We think the location and landscape are beautiful. A beautiful spot on earth. But now also a few negative things: - There is a playground on which the equipment is in a "DANGEROUS" condition. The area is not cordoned off, no signs of danger. Photos to follow. - The overall impression seems to me to be somewhat lacking in concept. The course somehow lacks a quality guideline. - There are dilapidations in several places that could be remedied with little effort, but are not. - Some permanent pitches are really a tragedy. - Dishwashing basins without plugs! In my opinion, this campsite deserves 3 stars but has the potential for 4 or 5. The first steps have been taken with the sleeping barrels, chalets and SeeSa. A little more care, tidiness and above all "attention to detail" and the thing is a hit.

Ascension 2018
We spent our Ascension weekend on the pitches on the west bank. The pitches were sufficient, although a little narrow in width. The cars of the guests on the very small shore pitches parked on the way, which made the journey a little more difficult. The reception was very friendly, the wash house on... the west bank was clean but getting on in years. The permanent pitches behind the west bank were, as already mentioned in other comments, partly very overgrown.
