Camping pitch by the water
The campsite, which stretches across the rear part of the long peninsula, is particularly well looked after. Twenty-five narrow, but spacious touring pitches lie directly on the canal and offer beautiful views across the flat Frisian landscape. Paved roads take you to your camping spot, situated on a tight grass field in the shade of some trees.
For fishermen and people looking for peace and quiet
The campsite has good fishing spots where you can fish for hours on end. Due to its small size and remote location, the campsite is very suitable for campers looking for peace and quiet. In high and low season, the campsite is mainly occupied by senior citizens.
Your own boat
If you have your own boat, you can moor it at one of the jetties of the campsite. This way the campsite can serve as a short or long stopover during your boat trip through Friesland and Groningen. The Prinses Margrietkanaal starts at Lemmer, one of Friesland's most famous water sports centres, located directly on the IJsselmeer. At the border with Groningen, exactly where the campsite is located, the canal changes into the Van Starkenborghkanaal, which runs all the way to the provincial capital Groningen.
