In Friesland, directly on the Sneekermeer, lies RCN de Potten, in the village of Offingawier. The campsite is a veritable paradise for water sports enthusiasts and people who want to discover the beauty of Dutch nature during their camping holiday. You are camping on spacious pitches, directly by the Sneekermeer. You can dine in the restaurant, which overlooks the water.

Camping on the Sneekermeer

Choose a spacious pitch by the water. These pitches are all equipped with a private water tap and electricity, some of them even have their own mooring for a boat. In addition, there are two fields for camping on the campsite. You can also camp with a tent or caravan here. Travelling with your motorhome? If you are, the paved motorhome pitches provides a solution.

When you walk around this holiday park in Friesland, you will also come across several rental accommodation units: from cosy holiday cottages to large bungalows. You can also rent a holiday villa on the Sneekermeer. Waking up each morning to a lovely view, who does not want this?

Water sports paradise

Water rats take note! At RCN de Potten you can take part in all kinds of activities in and near the water. For instance, sunbathing on the beach, swimming, canoeing, pedal boating or a trip in a rented (sailing) boat.

There is plenty to do for children. They amuse themselves in the playground, on the sports field, the mini golf course and air trampoline. From April to October there is a fun entertainment team. At RCN de Potten they also organise inspiring holiday church services, accessible to everyone.

€17 per night during lowseason

Hier 3 weken gestaan aan de Kampeerhaven. Fantastische camping, zeer goed onderhouden. Er zijn plaatsen met eigen sanitairvoorziening direct aan het water!
Ideaal voor watersporten, SUP, zeilen, enz. Waterskibaan op loopafstand.

Prima verblijf gehad op deze camping in het najaar. Mooie omgeving. Prima uitvalsbasis om Friesland te verkennen. Mooi uitzicht op het Sneekermeer. Minpuntje vonden we wel de weg naar het kampeerdeel en ook de afstand naar het sanitaire deel. Misschien toch wel handig om een wandelwegje aan te leggen halverwege welk dan uitkomt bij het sanitaire deel waardoor de loopweg een stuk minder wordt.
