Very good for spending one night in a motorhome, and we are right next to the lake.
Perfect for one night.
I arrived around noon; there were plenty of spaces, and I left the next day at 7 a.m. Perfect for a day trip to Flower Island. The pitches are not completely level, but it was a quiet night. There were a few other campers. Toilets are available during opening hours, and there is public Wi-Fi at the entrance. The parking attendant was extremely nice and gave me a discount code (€18), so I stayed free of charge.
It is the parking lot for the island park, so it is useful for anyone who wants to visit the park, which is very beautiful (but costs €28 per person!). When entering the parking lot, the license plate is scanned. Payment is made at the automatic kiosks or online within 48 hours of leaving.
Great place, friendly staff. Day ticket €6, night until 7 a.m. €12, so it is better to leave early and arrive after midnight. Alternatively, pay two day fees.
Very fair prices. Day ticket €6 from 7 a.m. to 11:59 p.m. Night rate for motorhomes €12 from midnight to 6:59 a.m. So you should leave early in the morning. Payment is made only when leaving, including online. You can therefore decide spontaneously how long you want to stay. Visiting Flower Island costs €26.50. So one night with an early departure costs €18. Very fair. Super-friendly staff!
This parking area is only worthwhile for visiting the island (€28 per person); otherwise it is €6 per day and €12 per night for no real services and no access to the lake. It is therefore very expensive for very little. If you are not visiting the island, do not stop here.
The €12 night rate applies from midnight to 7 a.m. We arrived at 8 p.m. and left at 10 a.m. the next day. Naturally, we had to pay for two day tickets as well (€24)! ABSOLUTE RIP-OFF! In addition, the toilets were very dirty and the parking attendant extremely unfriendly. You can tell that the area really has no interest in tourism.
€6 for parking without any hassle while visiting Mainau Island. The license plate is read on entry and exit. Payment is made at the automatic pay stations as you head toward the island.
For annual-pass holders, the parking costs €2 for the day. However, to sleep we drive to another parking area, since overnight stays would cost an additional €12.
€6 per day from 7 a.m. to midnight, then €12 per night from midnight to 7 a.m. If you arrive at 6 p.m., for example, you pay for a first day, then the night, then a second day to visit the park. The park closes at 7 p.m.
We parked for the day to visit Mainau for the day, parking was 6€. Recommend a visit to Mainau.
Ideal for visiting the island during the day. We did not spend the night there.
Nice parking without services. It is very noisy though. Stayed 2 nights without a problem. Flower island is very expensive to visit, but it was worth it. Went on a bike to Konstanz, there is a bike path right from the parking lot.
