First Camp Ekudden-Mariestad - Reviews

auto-translated: Large campsite in the First Camp chain. Very full, in August 2024. The photos are not quite real, there are only a few pitches directly on the lake and these must be explicitly reserved in advance. Sanitary facilities in my opinion
impression, slightly outdated and far too few for the size of the site. The staff were friendly but didn't want to rebook us despite other pitches being free. So we just stood right in front of the toilet and left after one night. Good bistro with pizza and burgers on offer. Overall, a slightly below-average pitch.

auto-translated: Very large campsite directly on Lake Vänern, pitches also very large. Sanitary facilities partly with queuing, otherwise very clean. Staff at check-in very friendly. Quite noisy due to the size and also very expensive.

auto-translated: If you want peace and quiet, this campsite may not be the best. The toilets could have been fresher. Then you can think about whether the price (515kr) is reasonable, actually the most expensive campsite we have been to.

auto-translated: The location on Lake Värnern alone makes this place worth a stay.

auto-translated: great, large campsite directly on lake vänern. large pitches under trees or directly on the lake. a nature biosphere reserve is right next door and there you can go for long walks with dog. sanitary facilities top, showers and electricity included. we felt very comfortable here and look forward to a second visit!

auto-translated: Very nice campsite directly on the lake. 2km from the city, easy to reach by bike. Very clean and quiet place, spacious Womo places.

auto-translated: mainly many seasonal campers with caravan. entertainment for the youth. not what we are looking for by default. but, terrain was clean, sanitary facilities were very clean, swam in the lake and ate in the bistro, so we did use it once. good camping.

auto-translated: Large site with large pitches, mostly level.
Beautiful location on the lake.
Sanitary facilities top, showers free of charge.
Kitchen and lounge also very good.
Very well thought out gray water sink. Chemical sink also available.
Overnight guests are accommodated in the front part.
Playground with large bouncy element, was very popular. Will let the air out in the evening, so it no longer disturbs.
We were here in early July, it was not crowded.
It makes sense to reserve a spot, especially on weekends it can get crowded. This can be done very well and uncomplicated via the First-Camp website.
The bistro offers the "staples" like pizza and burgers. However, a bit more expensive (pizza salami 139 SEK).
Good starting point for excursions in the area.
Here you can also stay a few days longer.

auto-translated: Best campsite in all of Sweden! Super friendly staff, were allowed to shower after check-out in the afternoon. Sanitary area very clean and generously sized, location very casual!!!

auto-translated: Beautifully located on the shore of Lake Vänern, very spacious pitches, sanitary facilities very clean. The reception at the reception was totally friendly, pitches are assigned. We were thrilled, on our tour one of the most beautiful places.

auto-translated: A large, family-friendly place directly on the water. Since we found nothing suitable for car with roof tent in the tent area (quite wavy, too narrow for us), we got a numbered place on request. The sanitary facilities are very good, Waterei there was not (vllt. used the WoWa

auto-translated: Very beautifully situated place. Unfortunately no free choice of seat. You are simply assigned a seat. Although the place was only 10% occupied. For motorhomes which are autak, there are only 3 places!
Not a great service!

auto-translated: Very nice, very clean and maintained place. Expensive, but also offers a lot. Numerous bathing opportunities. Many possibilities for walking, running, biking, beautiful nature trail directly along the beach.

auto-translated: very beautifully situated at the lake with beach and jetty, 400 crowns for a camper site seems quite expensive to me. Quiet, although the place was full. In the morning during rush hours the sanitary facilities are a bit too small for so many people.

auto-translated: Camping directly on the shore with private jetty. Very clean toilets and large kitchen with oven, microwave etc. Only about 30 minutes walk, on a beautiful hiking trail right on the water, to Mariestad. Latest checkout 12:00 pm.
