from 4 reviews Write review

Camping De Lente van Drenthe is located at the edge of the Gieten-Borger forestry. Located nearby is the beach resort of Het Nije Hemelriek, a natural large freshwater lake with sandy beaches. It is surrounded by lovely forests. You camp here in an ideal spot for seekers of peace, lovers of hiking and cycling and families with (small) children.

Spacious fields

The well maintained property is divided into spacious camping fields on a lovely lawn. Here and there you'll see a playground with a sandbox. Each field is surrounded by varied thickets that provide shelter. The pitches are also spacious. The numerous annual pitches and chalets are separate from the tourist pitches. Luxury lodge tents with sanitation facilities are also for hire on this campsite.

Beach in the forest

Across from the reception and the bar is the modest, rectangular swimming pool. There is a separate wading pool for the little ones. The beach is a few sizes bigger and is in a lush location amongst the greenery. You'll find it at a couple of hundred metres from the campsite. You can walk there on a forest path. There are wide sandy beaches around the water. In the summer of 2019 the campsite opened a large water park, DX Adventure park.

Playground, sports fields and amphitheatre

There's plenty to do for children, from playground and deer park to sports pitches (tennis, soccer, volleyball) and activities for all ages (craft club, performances). Camping guests can also play on the jeu de boules pitch, table tennis tables, in the recreation room and in the amphitheatre.

The small camping shop has a limited assortment and fresh bread every day. There is also a terrace. There is a restaurant near the beach.

Campsite accepts ACSI Club ID

Travelling party: Seniors

We waren met kinderen en kleinkinderen omdat er voor de jeugd voldoende op de camping valt te beleven. Wij, senioren, konden per fiets ons hart ophalen in de prachtige natuurlijke omgeving. Pretpark vlak in de buurt. Dus geen klagen. Echter het sanitair mag in de vakantieperiode vaker gereinigd worden. Voor de afwas waren er maar 2 warmwaterkranen. De chipcard voor de douches worden door drukke moeders wel gauw vergeten. Weg kaart, nieuwe kopen bij de receptie. De broodjes (€1 per stuk) worden bezord.

Travelling party: Seniors

We hebben er een voorseizoen met de caravan gestaan.
Plaatsen zijn prima voorzien van elektra, water, afvoer, antenne en wifi. Verder gericht op fietsers mn mountainbikers, en op gasten voor het Hemelriekje.
Een prima grote was, douche en toiletruimte. Maar ook de enige vuilwaterplaats. Voor kampeerders is er nog een toiletgebouwtje maar lijkt minder onderhouden.
Personeel is verder vriendelijk en behulpzaam, niets op aan te merken. Snackbar is alleen in het weekend open

Heerlijke week gehad. Echt genoten. Churros waren erg lekker. Patat iets minder. Het leek of daar de hele zoutbus op was uitgestrooid. En bestelling was niet helemaal zoals besteld. Verder is deze camping in deze mooie omgeving zeer de moeite waard. En houden we de camping zeker in ons hoofd voor nog een verblijf in de toekomst.

Camping met 2 gezichten. Een deel met mooie omzoomde kampeervelden. Maar ook een deel met foeilelijke stacaravans waar je als kampeerder \'niet gezien wilt worden\' maar waar je geen hinder van hebt. Toiletgebouw is prima maar zou wat vaker per dag schoongemaakt mogen worden. Eenvoudige voorzieningen voor een partijtje tennis of voetbal. Het op 5 minuten lopen gelegen meer is prachtig, bijna on-Nederlands blauw water met tal van zon - recreatie- sportmogelijkheden. De omgeving is fraai, afwisselend en biedt tal van mogelijkheden.
Al met al een aanrader.
