La Serre, 38390, Porcieu-Amblagnieu
Been here?
This flat, paved parking area lies beyond the restaurant on the other side of the lock, beside the Rhône and nearby walking routes. Overnight parking is officially restricted to restaurant customers, and several no-parking signs are present. Recent reports describe both peaceful nights and significant night noise from the busy road across the river. There are no services.

Very noisy at night; a busy road on the other side of the river, behind the line of trees. Impossible to sleep, I strongly advise against it. In addition, the parking spaces along the street are narrow and unwelcoming.
Quiet place, peaceful night, short walks nearby.
Very good night and day here, self-sufficient. Quiet, pleasant walk, lock, Rhône, dam, whitewater area. Suitable for cycling, quiet and shaded. No services.
Shaded place. There is a small restaurant: L'Écluse. Excellent owner. I recommend it.
Beautiful, quiet place, ideal for a lunch break. I did not test it for the night, but I think it could work.
Beautiful stop for our dinner break, very quiet.
Very beautiful discovery, shaded parking area. Possibility of walking between the Rhône and the canal. Very quiet. Restaurant L'Écluse: generous, high-quality cuisine. Lunch menu (one starter is enough for two). Pizza in the evening; don't hesitate.
Top place for one night. We were the only ones. It is level and suitable for all vehicles. We slept here without any problems on May 5. It is very quiet, green, and safe.
Unfortunately, the same thing happened to us: around 11 p.m., some teenagers amused themselves by throwing stones at our camper. We had read the previous review but hoped it was an isolated incident; evidently it is not. We also reported it to the police.
