Bori and Marchello are wonderful hosts! I had a great experience helping at the campsite with reception and housekeeping work, and exploring the area by bike in my free time (which I really loved! There are lots of bike paths and places to explore nearby) and swimming in the canal :) Bori and Marchello are very respectful of working hours and were always available when I had questions or needed a hand! I would definitely recommend volunteering here. Thank you both!

I rate my experience volunteering at this campsite a 4.9 out of 5. Managers Bori and Marchello are exceptional, open-minded, and eager to learn new things. They create a friendly, professional atmosphere where we openly discuss and solve problems together. We enjoy hanging out, playing guitar, and building healthy, genuine friendships without any gossip. I am grateful to be part of this caring family. My only suggestion is to recruit more volunteers to help manage the extensive campsite.

This definitely turned into a core memory that shaped me. Bori and Marchello are the best, and we all bonded and created a very good friendship ✨ Besides the fact that the place is beautiful, the work was simple and easy to do 🥰

I had such a good time at the camping! Bori and Marcello are really great hosts and so knowledgeable about the surrounding area. I was able to learn a lot about the native plants and got to explore the area both on bike and by rowboat! I got to experience some yard work as well as some creative projects to improve the campsite. Would highly recommend this experience if you enjoy being out in nature and working with your hands.

Staying with Bori and Marchello was a nice opportunity to learn how to manage a camping site to guest that are looking for it. If you enjoy excel customer service and keep the camping neat for customers this is the place to be. Daily tasks include be in contact with the nature so you gotta enjoy be outdoors most of the time. If you still want to reach the city, Rotterdam and The Hague are 1 hr away by train so it's a convenient spot. Would recommend to be in contact with dutch nature.
