Camping Île de la Comtesse: 4-Star Riverside Site on the Rhône, Between Ain and Savoie
Nestled on the banks of Lake Cuchet, an arm of the Rhône developed into a body of water, Camping Île de la Comtesse is a human-scale 4-star establishment that has cultivated a family spirit for over 15 years. Its 2.5 wooded hectares are home to 50 quality accommodations — fully equipped mobile homes, chalets and unusual lodges with views over the Rhône — as well as 60 spacious pitches of more than 100 m² for campers.
The campsite delights families with its heated water park, open from May to September: a thrilling waterslide, a large pool with a hydrotherapy area, and a paddling pool for little ones. Just 500 metres away, Lake Cuchet offers canoeing outings right within the wild Rhône nature reserve. Three restaurants, the mini club, daily entertainment and the Via Rhôna cycle path round out an offer designed for all generations. Just 30 minutes from Lake Bourget and the great Savoie sights — Lake Annecy, the Glandieu waterfall, Walibi — Camping Île de la Comtesse is an ideal base for exploring the Alps while enjoying an unspoilt natural setting.
