Camping Municipal Les Rives de Marne

We stayed on this lovely site pitched right by the river for 4 nights. The tranquility was wonderful. The warden was extremely helpful. I think this was very new but we were able to order delicious bread for the next morning from his new shop/cafe very close by. The cycle path by the canal is easy and takes you to beautiful villages and Chaumont town but there is a chance to see so much wildlife on the way. I highly recommend this site.

It was our third visit to the site and everything was just as we wanted. The site was quieter than it has been on our previous trips due to travel restrictions and covid concerns. The site is small and quiet anyway (which is why we like it). The facilities are simple but well looked after (don't expect a huge range!). We stayed on plot 28 right on the banks of the Marne next to the willow tree. The only possible concern you might have there is ducks quacking in the morning and the noise of the river flowing over the weir. The campsite is located directly on the River Marne and has access to the canal towpath for easy cycle rides (to get breakfast and bread if needed). Either side of the valley leads to many different walks and rides. Really quiet and beautiful countryside. Just what we needed.

We returned to the campsite for a second time last week. It was just a quiet and peaceful as we remembered. It is a perfect site to send a relaxing week there pitches are of a good size and the facilities are first class (but limited to toilets and washing up block and a small communal space with free wifi and coffee making). There is also communal fridge freezer in the block to keep things cool. The site is right next to the river and you can go to sleep at night listening to the water. During the day you can fish and perhaps catch your dinner? The only negative is that here are no shops less than 5 km away - but the boulangerie at Bologne is an easy 9 km ride down the the side of the canal. So pretty much perfect for a get away from it all trip.

The site is an a perfect location with pitches on the bank of the river Marne. It is set in a very quiet village with direct access to the canal tow path and is well placed for exploring the local region. The pitches are well maintained and the facilities are very clean and modern. The site has no shop but supplies can be found and local villages within a 10 minute drive (or 20-30 minute cycle ride). The site manager was very welcoming and helpful and attentive to the needs of the campers. A perfect place for a relaxing holiday.

We had a lovely riverside pitch. We stayed here last year so this was our second visit. The shower block is clean and tidy and there are additional washing up facilities, including a washing machine/tumble dryer for visitors' use. We will definitely come back again next year. The other visitors were all friendly and seem to come back year after year. I would recommend the campsite as a short stay/stop over.
