Lakeside chalet
A small but reasonably comfortable chalet in a beautiful location with a view of the lake. Nice place to enjoy the onsite facilities and visit the area.
Downsides. There was no oven in the kitchen which was frustrating, just a very small microwave without oven feature. There was no control on noise from other groups that partied until the early hours on several nights

Notre séjour c'est bien passé. Grande variétés de très chouettes activités sur place, personnel charmant et à l'écoute. Lac magnifique, endroit très nature. Malheureusement nous avons été extrêmement déçus de l'emplacement du bungalow qui nous avait été attribué. Terrasse privée avec vue sur les parkings, les poubelles communes. A l'avant, l'arrière de l'accueil qui sert de stockage de différents déchets. Quelle déception, rien à voir avec la photo ci dessus qui nous avait tant attiré lors de notre réservation. Par contre l'intérieur du bungalow est fonctionnel et agréable. Nous avons eu le bungalow S02.

Prima - gerne wieder!
Wir waren aufgrund des günstigen Preises etwas skeptisch, wurden aber eines Besseren belehrt! Kommunikation - top, Antworten kamen innerhalb von ein paar Stunden. Die Belegschaft am Infocenter vor Ort war ebenfalls höflich, freundlich und hat sich schnell und professionell um alle Anfragen gekümmert. Unterkunft - gut, etwas in die Jahre gekommen, aber für unsere Ansprüche völlig ausreichend. Ausstattung - gut, alles da gewesen, was man gebraucht hat...wie inseriert. Lage - top. Sehr ruhig und etwas abgelegen, aber aufgrund der nah liegenden Freizeitangebote sehr gut. Einkaufsmöglichkeiten sind per Kfz in 20 Min. Erreichbar. Wir haben uns gut erholt und empfehlen die Cottages auf jeden Fall weiter!

Great location for family with kids
We had a wonderful time at the Lac du Valjoly and staying at the cottages. We had a nice view on the lake from our terrace. The kids had fun at the Aquatica, mini golf and fitness path. All in all a very relaxed vacation.

Good location
The Location of the cottages is very nice. The cottages are clean and have nice terraces. What could be improved: better kitchen equipment and warmer blankets.
