\ud83d\udccc Yes, it is possible to choose a specific pitch when you make your booking.<\/p>

When making your request, you can let us know your preferred pitch number or the area you would like (near the lake, shaded, next to your friends, etc.). We always do our best to accommodate your wishes. <\/p>

\ud83d\udc49 To guarantee a specific pitch, you can reserve it for an additional \u20ac20 (guaranteed pitch option). Without this option, we will note your preference and allocate you the requested pitch subject to availability. <\/p>

\ud83d\udcdd Our advice: book early if you want a specific pitch, especially in July and August. Some areas (by the lake or near the sanitary facilities) are in high demand! <\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/details>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t

\ud83c\udfca\u200d\u2642\ufe0f No, Camping du Lac de Carouge<\/strong> does not have a swimming pool on site… but don’t worry, there’s no shortage of water!<\/p>

Just opposite the campsite is Lac de Carouge,<\/strong> a magnificent natural lake with Blue Flag status<\/strong>, guaranteeing clean, high-quality bathing water <\/strong>in an exceptional setting at the foot of the Bauges mountains. Swimming is supervised in summer,<\/strong> and a beach area<\/strong> allows you to relax or play with your family in complete safety. An authentic experience, without chlorine, but with a view of the mountains \ud83c\udf04 <\/p>

\ud83c\udd95 And for even more swimming<\/strong>, in high season<\/strong>, we offer free access<\/strong> to two municipal swimming pools near the campsite:<\/p>

  • \ud83c\udfd6\ufe0f Saint-Pierre-d’Albigny swimming pool<\/strong>
    Just 800 metres from the campsite,<\/strong> it is easily accessible on foot or by bike. It has a large pool<\/strong>, a paddling pool for children<\/strong>, green spaces to relax and a superb view of the surrounding mountains. <\/li>
  • \ud83d\udedd Montm\u00e9lian swimming pool<\/strong>
    About a 10-minute drive away,<\/strong> this municipal swimming pool has a 25-metre pool<\/strong>, a water slide<\/strong> that is very popular with families, and a relaxation area. Perfect for a fun or sporty outing! <\/li><\/ul>

    \ud83c\udf9f\ufe0f Both swimming pools are free for our campers <\/strong>in July and August. Just stop by reception<\/strong> to pick up your tickets. <\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/details>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t

    \ud83d\udc36 Yes, pets are welcome at Camping du Lac de Carouge<\/strong>! Here, we know that holidays aren’t complete without your four-legged friend \ud83d\udc3e<\/p>

    Whether you’re bringing Rex, Plume or Biscotte,<\/b> your dog can enjoy the Savoyard countryside with you, provided you follow a few simple rules:<\/p>

    Pets are allowed on bare pitches and in rental accommodation<\/b><\/p>

    \ud83d\udc15\u200d\ud83e\uddbaPets must be kept on a leash on the campsite.<\/p>

    Dogs classified as category 1 and 2 <\/b>(dogs considered \u2018dangerous\u2019 under French law) are not allowed for safety reasons.<\/b><\/p>

    \ud83d\udc3e Remember to bring your pet’s up-to-date vaccination certificate.<\/b><\/p>

    \ud83d\udca7 Water points are available<\/strong> to refresh them, and walks around the lake are generally a hit with dogs! However, they are not allowed on the beach. A small stream surrounding the campsite will certainly be their little corner of paradise <\/p>

    \ud83c\udf92 Bonus: our mascot Frizou the sheep<\/b> is very tolerant… except with cats who want to take his place on the campsite poster \ud83d\ude04<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/details>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t

    \u26fa Yes, it is possible to pitch a small tent next to your mobile home, chalet or lodge, but this must be requested in advance and incurs an additional charge.
    \ud83d\udcdd This option is ideal if you are travelling with:<\/p>

    • slightly older children who want their own space,<\/li>
    • an adventurous teenager who prefers to sleep \u2018under canvas\u2019,<\/li>
    • or a friend who is visiting and didn’t book in time \ud83d\ude09<\/li><\/ul>

      \ud83d\udcb0 An additional fee per night is charged for the extra tent, and the total number of people must not exceed the authorised capacity of the pitch.<\/p>

      \ud83c\udf92 Please note: only small dome tents are accepted, within the limits of the space available around the accommodation. Large tents, family tents or marquee-type structures are not permitted. <\/p>

      \ud83d\udc49 To request this option, simply specify it when making your booking or contact our team: we will let you know what options are available depending on the period and accommodation chosen.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/details>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t

      \u26a1\ud83d\ude97 No<\/b>, it is not permitted to charge electric vehicles directly from the sockets on the pitches or in the mobile homes and other rental accommodation.<\/b> These installations are not designed to support the power required for safe charging, which could result in overloads, fires or power cuts.<\/b> <\/p>

      \ud83d\udd0c But good news<\/b>: an 11 kW charging station is available at the campsite, on request at reception.<\/b> It allows you to charge your electric vehicle safely during your stay. Access is subject to availability and an additional charge (price displayed at reception). <\/p>

      \ud83d\udccdAnd if the station is already occupied or you are out and about, there are several public charging stations<\/b> in the immediate vicinity, including:<\/p>

      • Saint-Pierre-d\u2019Albigny<\/b> (less than 5 minutes away)<\/li>
      • Montm\u00e9lian<\/b>,<\/li>
      • And Chamb\u00e9ry.<\/b><\/li><\/ul>

        \ud83d\udca1 Tip<\/b>: remember to let us know in advance if you are coming with an electric vehicle so that we can organise your charging as best as possible.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/details>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t

        \ud83c\udfaf Yes, and it’s a great idea!<\/strong> We don’t wish it on anyone, but something unexpected (big or small) can always happen just before the holidays…<\/p>

        Fortunately, you can take out cancellation insurance<\/strong> when you book online.<\/strong> This insurance covers you in the event of: <\/p>

        • illness (even last-minute flu),<\/li>
        • accident,<\/li>
        • work commitments (thanks boss…),<\/li>

          \ud83d\udd01 Cancellation without insurance:<\/p>

          • \ud83d\uddd3\ufe0f More than one month before arrival:
            Cancellation is possible, but we will retain the deposit paid at the time of booking.<\/li>
          • \ud83d\uddd3\ufe0f Less than one month before arrival:
            Cancellation is still possible, but we will retain the full balance. At this stage, your accommodation has been reserved for you and is difficult to reschedule. <\/li><\/ul>

            \ud83d\ude07 Of course, in exceptional circumstances or in the event of a serious problem, please contact us: we are human, not robots (except perhaps Frizou, but we are still investigating…).<\/p>

            \u2705 Cancellation with insurance
            If you took out cancellation insurance when you made your booking, you may be refunded according to the terms of the contract (illness, accident, work commitments, etc.). This is the \u2018peace of mind\u2019 option, to avoid any unpleasant surprises. <\/p>

            \ud83d\udce9 For all cancellations, just send us an email or give us a call. The sooner you let us know, the more flexible and helpful we can be. <\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/details>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t

            For sports enthusiasts: Petanque tournaments, volleyball, table tennis and direct access to hiking trails.<\/p>

            Here, there’s no chlorine, no slippery tiles… just fresh, clear water with Blue Flag certification (which means it’s as clean as a mobile home after Virginie has been there \ud83d\udcaa), surrounded by mountains and trees.<\/p>

            \ud83d\udc59 In summer, there are lifeguards on duty, a sandy beach and everything you need for families, children, swimmers, floaters, chatterboxes on buoys, diving pros and those who just want to dip their toes in the water.<\/p>

            \ud83d\udef6 Want to mix things up? Paddleboarding and pedalos are also available… or you can take a nap in the shade, no judgement here \ud83d\ude0e <\/p>

            \ud83d\udca1 Bonus: the lake is right in front of the campsite, just a stone’s throw from the pitches. In other words, you can go from the hammock to the water in flip-flops in 12 seconds flat (beat that this summer). <\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/details>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t
