Camping Les Castors is a family campsite in the village of Burnhaupt-le-Haut in the Alsace. You can camp here on spacious pitches or stay in a modern accommodation. The natural lake provides water fun and in the restaurant, open throughout the year, you can have a meal and enjoy the ambiance. Camping Les Castors is easily reached. Coming from the D83, take the exit towards the D483. Then follow the road on the Route de Guewenheim. After a while, you will see the signpost for the campsite.

A refreshing dive

The pitches on the campsite have a minimum size of 100 m². Whether you want to stand in the shade of the tall trees or with the sun shining on your head, Camping Les Castors will have a spot for you. You can also choose a spot along the water, lovely for a refreshing dive in the morning.

Natural lake

One of the campsite's favourite features is the natural lake, an excellent spot for swimming and sunbathing. The river Doller, which flows north of the camping, also makes for good swimming. You can also cast a line here and catch a few fish.

The heart of the campsite

The restaurant may well be considered the heart of the campsite. Here, great evenings and themed dinners are organised and delicacies served. Furthermore, the restaurant is open throughout the year, so you can enjoy a pizza or 'tarte flambée’ in any season.

€19 per night during lowseason

Melanie, on this campsite in July 2022

Travelling party: Couple

This was the fourth French campsite of our trip and was by far the worst having stayed in some lovely sites. It’s rating is wildly inaccurate. It would not get 5 out of 10 in Germany. The site smells of sewerage and the smell is inescapable. We had to sit in our van to eat and drink. One of the toilet blocks (our closest) was a free for all that required everyone to walk past a urinal in order to use the toilets, showers or washing up sinks. Our tiny pitch could only be reached by crossing one of two other pitches. People walked across our pitch all day and night. People were talking and drinking until very late and well after dark. There was a bottle top and cigarette butts on our pitch when we arrived. The “lake” is a very small body of murky looking water and the “beach” was not being looked after very well. Having said that, the toilets were cleaned thoroughly and there were lots of kids who seemed very happy with the lake, inflatables and peeling play equipment. The cafe looked uninspiring and sparse but we didn’t go when it was open. If you need a cheap destination for younger children then this might suffice but, we were up at first light and on our way as soon as we could leave.
