(Translated by Google) A large, well-maintained campsite with ample spaces for campers with full hook-ups. You can stroll along the lakes around the campsite. The owners are very friendly. There are plenty of spaces for long-term campers, but also plenty of spaces for cameras staying only a few days (short-term sites). The campsite has three small lakes for boating. One of the lakes has a beach, but when we were there, it was dry and swimming was not allowed. There are no bathrooms; there are makeshift toilets, but everyone uses their own in their camper. A loud train passes nearby, but it didn't bother us. The campsite is locked at night, so it seems safe. (Original) Duży bardzo zadbany kemping z dużymi miejscami na kampery z full hook up. Po terenie kempingu można pójść na spacer wzdłuż jezior. Właściciele są bardzo sympatyczni. Dużo miejsc dla kamperów na dłuży okres czasu, ale też dużo miejsc dla kamerów stojących tylko kilka dni (miejsca krótkoterminowe). Kemping ma 3 małe jeziorka po których można pływać łódką. Jedno z jezior ma plażę, ale jak my tam byliśmy to jezioro było wyschnięte i nie można było się tam kapać. Brak łazienek, są prowizoryczne toalety, ale raczej każdy korzysta ze swojej w kamperze. W pobliżu przejeżdża głośny pociąg, ale nam to nie przeszkadzało. Kemping jest zamykany na noc, więc wydaje się być bezpieczny.

Very clean. The owners are wonderful and helpful. It’s nice that they furnish lawn mowers and weed killer. All the lawns are beautiful. Some new concrete slabs for your camper. Porta potties in multiple places throughout the campground and very very clean. Great beach. They do allow golf cart which is nice. Three lakes with all kinds of good fishing. I have not met a person that was not absolutely satisfied. Period stop by Office they will give you a tour
