Hermos camping para disfrutar del verano en el Parque Nacional Los Alerces, los lugares para acampar son muy verdes y lindos, con luz, mesas y fogones. También hay domos para los que buscan mayor comodidad. Los baños siempre limpios y con agua calentita.Tiene una proveeduría con todo lo necesario y a excelente precio. El personal es muy atento y se encargan de que se respete el horario de silencio así que las noches son tranquilas y se descansa muy bien.El acceso a la playa es muy lindo y lleno de árboles, tiene servicio de guardavidas todo enero y febrero para disfrutar del lago Futalaufquen con seguridad.No se sorprendan si al abrir la carpa se encuentran con algunas bandurrias, chimangos, golondrinas y/o liebres, están acostumbrados a compartir el espacio.Estamos muy agradecidos con todo el personal del camping por ser súper amables y hacer se nuestra estadía una excelente experiencia.
