In the south of France, the Camping Rives du lac Sainte Croix campsite is located three hundred metres from the lake of the same name. You are here in the heart of the Verdon, the region known for its beautiful nature and Provençal specialities. There is a tremendous amount to do around the campsite and lake, from water sports to wine tastings. The nearest village of Bauduen is a five-minute drive away. Here, there is a market every Sunday in the summer.

Welcome!

Since 2024, Camping Rives du Lac Sainte Croix has merged with Camping Le Vieux Chêne. The grounds of the campsite are shaded. You'll find mostly pitches. All sites are equipped with electricity. It is also possible to rent a mobile home. These have two or three bedrooms, a refrigerator, a bathroom (with toilet and shower) and a spacious terrace on which to enjoy the outdoors.

Le lac de Sainte Croix

From the campsite, you have direct access to the Lake of Sainte Croix. There is plenty to do around the lake. Rent a pedal boat or go sailing or kayaking. But you can also go fishing or simply take a dip in the water. Furthermore, it's well worth taking a walk or bike ride around the lake. This can be done on a guided basis or on your own initiative.

The medieval village of Bauduen

In the village of Bauduen, a five-minute drive from the campsite, you can buy fresh baguettes and enjoy a revitalising cup of coffee or a delicious glass of wine overlooking the lake. In the summer, there is also a takeaway service at the campsite with fresh bread, croissants and muffins. The medieval village of Bauduen hosts a large Provençal market every Sunday in summer.

Travelling party: Family with children, 4 – 12 years

Liked - Unser Mobilehome war extrem alt. Viele kaputte Stellen in den Wänden oder Boden, die man richten könnte, oder aber das Mobilehome aussortieren und gegen ein neueres Austauschen. Neben der Duschkabine war alles voller Spinnenweben. Die Vorhänge haben nicht gepasst, sind entweder durchgehangen oder waren zu kurz, so dass Licht unter dem Vorhang reinkam. Preis/Leistung stimmt hier nicht.
Disliked - Die Aussage 300 m mit direktem Zugang zum Strand ist missverständlich. Ich dachte man hat vom Camping aus direkten Zugang, so dass man mit dem SUP starten kann, aber das SUP oder Kajak durch den Wald zu tragen ist definitiv zu weit. Mein Fehler, dass ich diese Aussage vor dem buchen nicht weiter hinterfragt habe.

Travelling party: Seniors

Liked - The staff were very helpful and the pitches were a good size and shaded.
Disliked - The grocery store could be better stocked and the restaurant improved. Also either a little boat taxi or shuttle bus to Bauduen would be a good asset.

Travelling party: Young couple

Liked - The near location of the lake, so that one can have a swim every time one likes.
Disliked - the santitary building close to the lake has very narrow cabins so you always touch the walls while showering and you have to surround the building to wash the hands after the use of toilets
