Something not right?

Description

New campground opened December 2017. 30 pitches with electricity set in a large woodland site, around the owner's house. Also cabanas available. Set well back from RN40. Excellent showers with hot water (24/7) and refuge with kitchen, and with potential sleeping area above. All very nicely equipped and beautifully maintained. No standpipes but hose available at toilet block to fill RV water tank, I assume from spring, test certificate available. Plenty of room for our Land Rover and Caravan on site 30 and sufficient sun for solar charging. We couldn’t connect to the WiFi, even at reception. Similar to US site and no noise! Fluent English spoken. 200$/person plus 200$ for RV (only charged when we filled with water, we didn’t plug in). Highly recommended.

Nos costó llegar a él ya que es difícil de visualizarlo, se encuentra sobre ruta 40 ingresando al Bolsón, pero que suerte tuvimos en encontrarlo ya que hemos recorrido la mayoría de los camping del pueblo y este es el que más nos gustó. Un predio inmenso, muy bien cuidado y atendido por sus cordiales dueños. Destaco la flora hermosamente cuidada con árboles de manzanas, peras que se podían consumir. Cuenta con servicios de luz, agua caliente 24hs. Baños/duchas calefaccionados con estufa. Fuimos en temporada baja y se encontraba casi vacío por lo cual no tuvimos ningún inconveniente pero aclaro que todo el camping cuenta solo con 6 duchas (3 para hombres y 3 para mujeres). A pesar de no contar con parcelas delimitadas cada acampante cuenta con un tomacorriente y un tacho para su basura. No así sus fogones que hay varios, pero de forma compartida.
Sin duda a todo aquel que vaya al Bolsón le recomiendo este camping, no se va a arrepentir!!

Nice campground with big spaces, grills, tables with benches and clean facilieties to use. Employees are friendly. Price as described before. Wifi is not the best.

Clean spacious place. Many beauiful features. The common room was immaculate. Electric plug-in not functioning at site #2. 2500 per person plus 1000 for camper. 6000 pesos total. But it is quiet and you get away from the chaos of central El Bolson.

Very lovely campsite with excellent facilities - hot showers, clean toilets, grills, wifi. 3500 for 2 people and the campervan. Big rig friendly just off main road. V quiet apart from the bird life...bring ear plugs the peacocks and ibis are very loud early in the morning.

One of the best campings we've ever been!
Large flat areas with shadow, electricity spots and tables - one for each site.
Hot water 24/7 - even to wash dishes and laundry. Bathrooms are very good, and there is a "refuge" area with kitchen and fireplace.

They also have a good "snack bar" with some foods like empanadas, pizzas, medialunes and great craft beer.
Clara and Mauricio are great hosts, and will make you fell very comfortable here :)

They also have rooms, dorms and cabins - plus a very nice Swimmingpool (which we do not know if the camping can use 🤔).
Wi-Fi is average! And when there are many people in the camping, it does not work (just for some WhatsApp messages).

We would definitely recommend this place!
The price now is 1000pesos per person/per day (no extra charges for the car).

Absolutely fantastic spot to spend a night or more! My family and I enjoyed 3 relaxing nights here among the peacocks and trees. Fabulous hosts and the most impeccable grounds we have seen in our time in Argentina. Bathrooms are sparkling clean and the water is hot 24/7. Everything you could want and more. We lid $500/person but our 2 kids were free. Easily worth the money. Best value of our entire trip so far. Would HIGHLY recommend!!

Not open when we arrived so we believe that this is only viable when it’s in season. Too bad cause it looks very nice! Now to find somewhere else!

Best campsite we had in 2,5 weeks camping in Chili and Argentina! We were there in high season but only 3 from the 25 sites were occupied. Each site has a nice picnic table and rubbish bin. Very good wifi, not only near the main building but also at the sites itself. Very nice toilet building with very nice hot showers. There was also hot water for cleaning the dishes. There are beautiful peacocks wandering on the campsite. We paid 600 pesos (16 usd at the time) for two people and a small campervan.
