Nice place, but when following the route on Maps it sends you onto a prohibited road. We had to take another route to get there, but it is a pleasant place with a shaded picnic table and a view of a lake.
Nice little place just for the day. The incessant noise from the road and passing cars, plus young people doing wheelies on their little mopeds.... I would not feel safe sleeping here alone, even with a Taser and pepper spray. Maybe it is quieter off-season, but late June is different. I do not recommend sleeping here.
Spent a super-quiet night. Actually very busy in the morning with hikers and anglers. No rubbish bins. A beautiful walk around the pond for breakfast.
Good spot for spending the night. At this time of year I was alone along the path, and the night was quiet. However, in the morning, as soon as I got out of the vehicle, it was very noisy because of the main road next to it. Easy to access and easy to park. Be careful not to be discouraged by the STOP sign at the entrance to the path; it refers to a road a little farther on.
We spent a very quiet night. It is easy to park with a motorhome. An ideal place for a short jog too; a few runners and cyclists passed by in the morning. The entrance is on the left after the “no entry in 50 m” sign. Please respect the place: campfires are forbidden.
Shady place to spend the night. You hear the cars but only slightly.
It's impossible to go there. No roads a available
Easy to find a space, a pretty site with a stormwater basin. We were woken by the landscapers at 8 a.m.: lawnmowers and other brush cutters for more than an hour. Just bad luck. Bins on site.
This site near a small lake is a gem because it is easy to access and very well equipped with several picnic tables and benches. We were welcomed by a very friendly fishing warden. A little traffic noise at night because of the upper road, which was closed.
At this time of year there are indeed people in the evening, but it remains quiet. However, the main road is currently closed, so early in the morning there is a procession of cars and motorcycles using the path as a detour. An effective alarm clock!
Very pleasant spot, lots of spaces and easy to park, with almost level ground. Cars pass until 11 p.m., with young people and music, but that is normal for the season. Several picnic tables. I recommend it.
Very nice spot, easy access (we were in a van), but there were motorhomes not far away; you can even hear the frogs.
Very nice spot. The lake is used during the day by locals and fishermen and is very quiet at night. The police passed several times but did not say anything to us. Picnic tables available. The view of the lake is pleasant and, if there are no clouds, you can enjoy a lovely sunset. We recommend it!
Very busy place, but everyone leaves in the evening. The nearby road is audible, but you can still sleep well. Very clayey ground, which becomes slippery when it rains. A car came at night, parked near us for about 20 minutes, and then left again.
Very quiet for the night. Many hiking trail starts.
Had a wonderful night. Very peaceful. We stood at the back of the path, where we had a view of the pond/lake. Plenty of tables for picnicking.
Very beautiful spot at the end of a rocky path and beside a stormwater basin. Except that at 11 p.m. a bunch of idiots came and played music at full volume. We moved to the beginning of the path and saw them leave 15 minutes later. Some people really are born to annoy others. In short, we still had a very good night despite that. We recommend it 100%.
Very pleasant spot, lots of parking spaces, somewhat shaded. Right next to the small lake, with picnic tables. It is quiet.
Beautiful area, shaded parking, several tables.
Really nice place, lots of space. We continued along the path to settle at the top of the dam with another van, since the motorhomes had occupied the few spaces at the entrance with all their gear spread out. A little noise at night from a few revelers, but nothing serious.
Nice little picnic stop, no access problems with a motorhome. I think it is possible to sleep there overnight. No swimming, very quiet area.
Very beautiful spot, quiet night, very clean place.
A little traffic at night and walkers in the morning... the park is beautiful.
