from 7 reviews Write review

Schloß Helmsdorf lies with its small private marina directly on the Bodensee. This spaciously designed campsite, situated on the extensive grounds of a decommissioned beer brewery, is completely geared towards water sports. With its ideal location, luxury and modern facilities and fine restaurant featuring regional dishes, it's a wonderful place to camp. The campsite grounds are mostly occupied by permanent pitches, but there is a separate area for touring campers.

Separate touring pitches

This large campsite is mostly made up of permanent pitches (230), but touring campers are also welcome here. If you plan to stay in the peak season, be sure to book a spot beforehand because it gets busy in the summer. There are eighty touring pitches, situated on a separate part of the campsite. This camping terrain is situated behind the restaurant and does not lie directly on the lake. The pitches are numbered and are beautifully laid out on grass fields. Some are paved with gravel. The campsite grounds are slightly sloping, but you will be able to pitch your caravan without any problems. A separate field for tents is situated on the outskirts of the campsite, close to the main road.

Boating on the Bodensee

Schloß Helmsdorf's view is always aimed at the Bodensee. The private marina has enough space for you to moor your boat (for an additional fee). From the campsite, you can boat straight onto the large lake. Next to the marina is a fine spot where you can sunbathe by the lake in the green grass.

Excellent sanitary facilities

Schloß Helmsdorf sets a high standard for other German campsites with its excellent sanitary facilities. The modern sanitary facilities in the centrally located toilet block are in tip-top shape and always kept immaculately clean.

Der Platz ist tatsächlich sehr schön. Yachthafen ist direkt dabei! Alles an Sehenswürdigkeiten in der Nähe auch mit dem Bus sehr gut zu erreichen. Achtung, der Platz hat keine Kooperation mit ACSI, sodass die Karte hier nicht akzeptiert wird! Die Kosten sind daher etwas höher als eingeplant. Das freundliche Personal möchte ich aber ausdrücklich erwähnen!

Travelling party: Family with children, 12 - 18 years

Wir waren im März für 6 Tage auf diesem schön gelegenen Campingplatz. Sanitäranlagen sehr schön und sauber, Stellplätze ausreichend groß, mit Kies, aber zum Teil Auffahrkeile notwendig. Das Restaurant am Platz ist schön, bietet leckeres Essen, aber zu höheren Preisen. Für Kinder / Jugendliche zu wenig Angebote, nur ein Spielplatz. Der Campingplatz ist gut gelegen für viele Ausflüge am Bodensee und im Hinterland.

Travelling party: Family with children, 12 - 18 years

Wir waren im April für 5 Tage auf diesem schönen Campingplatz. Die Stellplätze sind ausreichend groß, terrassiert und gekiest. Auf einigen Plätzen braucht man aber trotzdem Auffahrkeile, um eben zu stehen. Die Sanitäranlagen sind neu und sauber. Es gibt einen kleinen Laden mit Brötchenservice. Es ist aber auch nicht weit in den Ort mit verschiedenen Lebensmittelgeschäften (Bäcker, Metzger, Supermarkt). Es gibt einen schönen kleinen Spielplatz, leider sonst nichts weiter für Kinder / Jugendliche (kein Ballspielfeld, keine TT-Platte o.ä.). Nachts hört man bei einigen Plätzen die nahe Bundesstraße. Das Restaurant am Platz ist sehr schön und bietet leckeres Essen. Insgesamt ein guter Platz am Bodensee mit vielen Ausflugsmöglichkeiten, der aber für den relativ hohen Preis gerade Familien mit Kindern wenig bietet.
