Between the mighty Alps in southeastern France, directly on the river Ubaye, lies Camping River. You camp here in the mountainous east of Provence, in the middle of nature. With forty touring pitches on a sloping, shady site, camping River is a small-scale campsite. Lovers of 'vintage' camping can rent the retro caravan.

Mooi gelegen naast rivier en omringd door bergen, vriendelijke eigenaresse, schoon sanitair, fijn restaurant op camping, sfeer.

Zwembad was wel erg klein en nodigde niet zo uit. Jammer dat er weinig gezinnen met tieners waren, terwijl de vele outdoor activiteiten juist voor tieners aansprekend zijn.

The owners are an extraordinarily kind, welcoming couple who truly go above and beyond—their service is way beyond 10/10! ​Since I don't speak French, the owner made a phone call on my behalf. When water entered our tent, they instantly offered to help. They trusted us without even knowing us, letting our young kids (ages 3 and 7) get bread and ice cream freely, and lending us an electric adapter straight away. The campsite is super peaceful and silent after 10 PM. It is very clean, It has a small lake with two paddle surfboards that our kids loved. The pizza is big, cheqp and great.

We couldn't leave the car next to our tent but parking outside after unloading is quick and convenient.

A very, cosy feeling. Because the camping is small it's very personal. Beautiful location. Nice that we could order bread in the morning but also ice cream for the kids and nice drinks and fonds at the bar. The kids loved to play with the other kids that stayed at the camping. They loved the supps and the table tennis. We booked a raft trip at the camping, wich was really nice. A perfect base for swimming at the lake, hiking of cycling, visit Barcelonnette etc. We will recommend Camping River!

The sanitary was old. Lots of toilet seats were loose. And we were not used to bring your own toilet paper. But it was fine to bring it with us. But there were several signs of poor maintenance.

We had a good time in camping river. The view is beautiful and you can directly go to the river. The owners a awesome and very kind.

The toilets were to small and you have to bring your own toiletpaper. Everything is a little bit old and may needs an upgrade.
