The beach is located near a lake and is quite small, with many seasonal plots. It is situated next to a railway track, which can be noisy at times. The toilets, showers, and other facilities are clean. I may consider stopping by again next time I am in the area, as my overall experience was okay.

If you're looking to camp near Estavayer but prefer a less crowded option, Les Pins is a great choice. It's just a 20-minute drive from Estavayer Campground and offers excellent facilities. The woman who helped us find our camping spot was incredibly friendly, answered all our questions, and made us feel welcome right away. The best part was being able to set up our tent right by the water, which was lovely. Additionally, there was live music playing on a Saturday night until the early hours of the morning.
