Asphalt parking lot beside a small lake near Paris and a village, with a pleasant walking path around the lake. Calm and quiet, free to stay. Slight slope is manageable. Little shade except one afternoon spot. Fishermen visit by day; overnight can have couples. Plane noise starts from 9 a.m. Good for dog walkers. Toilets are not available on-site.

Good place to rest near the pond, frequented by fishermen. We were peaceful. At night it is a meeting place for couples.
Very good place to spend the night. Asphalt parking beside a small lake. When we arrived in the afternoon there were only cars. Then there were just us and one other van. Very quiet place. Lidl is nearby, as is the motorway.
Except for one occasion when all the participants in a hike had parked there, the area is quiet, beautiful and peaceful. A little sloping but manageable. However, there is almost no shade during the day apart from one spot in the afternoon.
Incredibly beautiful spot by the lake, very close to Paris. Quiet and surrounded by nature beside a small village.
Excellent location just after leaving Paris. Bucolic and peaceful. A short 1-km walk goes around the pond. We were lucky to be there during the breeding season of the toads, which accompanied our evening with their “melodious”, if somewhat repetitive, song ;-) Thank you to the town hall for offering us such a beautiful place.
Very good place to spend the night and even the day. Asphalt parking beside a small lake. The only two drawbacks are that it is not completely level and that from 9 a.m. you start to hear the planes a little. Otherwise, a top spot!
Beautiful in nature, with a wonderful circular walk around the lake in the morning and a great dog-walking route for our dogs. Clean site, so please respect it.
Bucolic spot, quiet at midday and at night beside the Gué basin. Thank you to the town hall for allowing this parking.
Very nice place, with cars and people occasionally coming to walk their dogs, spend some time by the lake or fish. I spend nights here when I am in the area and have always felt comfortable.
Lovely and peaceful spot! We stood and ate right by the water. Views of beavers, ducks and kingfishers. Be kind to this beautiful place. You can also walk around the lake.
We stopped at this aire for one night. Very peaceful, surrounded by greenery with a small pond—very pleasant when travelling with a dog.
Quiet and pleasant place beside a small pond, with a bin available! However, be careful: overnight stays are prohibited, as stated in a municipal order at the entrance to the car park.
Excellent overnight spot close to the motorway. Very quiet for sleeping, gravel surface.
Very quiet, plenty of space for longer motorhomes. Overnight stays are allowed, but be considerate of local residents. Perfect for one night.
Great spot! Please be considerate of the locals!
Quiet place to spend the night. Nice walk around the pond. Picnic table. Perfect for a stopover night.
Quiet spot, not much space but enough not to be crammed together, bins available :) The planes taking off are not disturbing. Good bakery in the neighbouring village :)
