auto-translated: Nice little place to start from to Nordkapp or to go for a little hike. Reindeer visit included! The toilets were fine. The reception was very friendly and helpful. We had to change pitches because of our tent in addition to the car and it was no problem at all.
Would I come back: Yes

auto-translated: Experience 2023:
A wonderful place to experience the North Cape region, very close to the northernmost fishing village of Skarsvag (within walking distance).
Familiar place, well maintained and clean, with a small restaurant. in k
From here you can hike up a fell with a view of the North Cape and visit the Kirkeporten viewpoint!
Highly recommended!
Addition from 2024:
The site is still very nice, but is run by different operators; restaurant no longer directly on the site, but about 1.5 km away on a campsite that also belongs to the new operators.

auto-translated: Small campsite right on a lake, very quiet, great surroundings. Owners friendly, sanitary facilities very dated but clean. Ideal place for visiting the North Cape, walking distance to the fishing village of Skarsvag, 2km to the fish restaurant "in Cod we trust".

Very nice place. Despite remote location there was small but lovely place for tents, place next to small lake. Few clean toilets, showers included into the price. Quite big kitchen with microwaves electric kettle and kitchen. Also there was a pots, plates and cutlery. Generally very good place to stay with tent at the end of the world.

auto-translated: Were here in 2015 and early June 2022.
There are level pitches, mostly gravel.
Special places for tents are not available.
The power connections are now sufficient and fused with 16 amps.
The sanitary facilities are partly renewed, well heated and in good condition.
The site owner is very friendly, speaks English.
WLAN is available, only when all are on the net, a little slow.
Chemical sink available.
Given the harsh weather conditions, we had temperatures down to 4 degrees and heavy storm in early June, I think the site is not suitable for tents or families.
Ideal starting point for visiting Nordkapp, 13 kilometers away.
By the way, the roads to Nordkapp and Skarsvåg have gradients up to 10%.

CorvusAutumni 2022/08/22
auto-translated: Small place by a lake. Nothing special, just functional for the visit to the North Cape. One night with camper (3 people) was 420 NOK.
The small town of Skatsvåg is within walking distance. Just take a stroll there. The two restaurants are super cute, but nothing with a vegetarian "in the luggage" (fish or reindeer).
The women's sanitary facilities are super. Newly renovated. The men's, well. Some toilet doors jammed so that they can not be closed. Toilet slogans and graffiti. Cleaner came regularly and toilets, sinks and showers themselves were clean.

auto-translated: Beautiful campsite located on a lake. Sanitary facilities are clean. Showers are free and there is plenty of hot water. Super starting point to get to hiking trails and in the village next door you can go eat very tasty and discover the Norwegian cuisine! We were even longer than originally planned there because we liked it so much.

auto-translated: A beautiful place with great surroundings. Although the tent meadows are not perfectly leveled but left in their natural state, it is also the north where you will find great tent sites. The sanitary facilities are clean and so is the kitchen. Showers are free and WiFi is available. The staff is very friendly. We spent several nights here because we liked it so much!

auto-translated: The place may be the northernmost and on a beautiful lake (with mosquitoes) lie, in which you can swim well, but
* The sanitary facilities are too far away for campers
* Electricity was mandatory
* The staff is not the friendliest
* The WLAN did not reach to the campers
* It's assigned a place
We have been in Norway for a month now and have seen many places. This was our most expensive with little power. At least the shower cost nothing.
