Description

In the heart of a mid-mountain village renowned for its hiking, biking and motorcycling, we welcome you since 2017 on the banks of the river Raddon in a vast plot of land whose calm, vegetation and facilities allow to preserve the rest and privacy of everyone.
Near the Planche des Belles Filles, our village is regularly crossed by the riders of the Tour de France. Come and discover the charm of the Vosges Saônoises, we look forward to meeting you!

The setting

No noise... except maybe the sound of the water in the river !
In the Parc Naturel Régional des Ballons des Vosges (Réserve Naturelle des Ballons Comtois) and the Pays des Mille Étangs, we will be happy to welcome you in our green setting.
The site is crossed by a private category 1 river (fishing), and the two camping areas are connected by a private bridge that spans the bed of the Raddon: you are at the campsite "Le Pont du Bas"!
Depending on your preferences, there are shaded and sunny areas.
Your evenings around the campfire (specific location and wood provided).
The goats and chickens will be delighted with your visit...
Some squirrels will also come to spy on you, and you will be able to observe the kites and the goshawks. The heron comes to dip its legs in the morning to track trout and crayfish....

The spots

The first area is for campers, vans and caravans (two sites, one of which is stabilized for heavy vehicles - new in 2022), on the edge of the departmental road, which is rarely used, and the river.
This road is regularly used by the Tour de France during the stages at the Planche des Belles Filles, which has become a classic of the Tour with 6 arrivals in the last 10 editions.

A second area further back in the forest is ideal for tents (three pitches).
In both cases, the terrain is flat and you will be camping by the water.
There are no restrictions on the size of your tents.
The pitches are away from the house and out of sight thanks to the rather dense vegetation.

The sanitary facilities

Permanent access to independent sanitary facilities (1 shower with hot water and 1 toilet: see photos), and to a room with sink and hot water (dishes, small toilet, small laundry...). These facilities are cleaned every day. For the purists ;) solar showers are also available on request.

The draining of waste water is possible on the condition of bringing it to the outside sanitary facilities (with a can for example, there is no draining grid on the ground). You can also empty your chemical toilet cassettes into the toilets.

The amenities

Outdoor wifi throughout the grounds.

A small shelter is at the collective disposal of the campers towards the "tents" area (see photos): it allows you to cook and eat in the shade (or in the dry!) in all circumstances.
It is equipped with a table and benches, a 2-burner camping stove (gas at your expense, see the "rules of the field"), a rechargeable lantern for your evenings and it is extended by an awning (see photos) to easily cover a table for 12 to 15 people.
In the sink room, the occupants of the three tent sites share an 80cm refrigerator. A microwave oven is also available for everyone. We can also lend you a kettle.

Most of the interior and exterior lights are automatic to facilitate your movements in the evening (email hidden)Salt, pepper, barbecue and pickaxe are at your disposal, but we ask you to bring your own dishes and cooking utensils.

Electricity without supplement on the first space: plugs CEE (P17) 16A type "camping", we advise you to envisage an extension cord of approximately 20m.
No electricity on the second space: on the other hand a shelf with multi-socket is at your disposal to recharge your mobile devices, towards the sink room.

With the tourist office of the Mille Étangs, electric bikes can be rented and delivered to the site.
Campfire (place provided for this purpose, wood is provided at your discretion, just think of the guitar and marshmallows).
Our goats and chickens will also entertain you...

Other things

600m altitude and continental climate: the summer days are often very hot and the night can be rather cool, so equip yourself accordingly! Please note that on the river banks, morning dew is abundant in all seasons.

On the two sites of the first space, stabilized for heavy vehicles with stones, it may be difficult or even impossible to install a canvas shelter (awning, additional tent...) by driving stakes into the ground.

The field is open from May 1 to September 30 (May, June and September: only on weekends from Friday to Monday).

The security conditions and the capacities of our filtration system do not allow us to offer you access to our pool.

Rules

Essentially, common sense... and good humor!
Access to the site without going through our gate: you are independent, no particular entry or exit times during your stay.

Nevertheless, a few rules are necessary, thought over time:

* Arrival times after 3 pm, departure times before 1 pm.
* Animals: our doggie is getting older and does not really accept other dogs... However, small dogs (max 15kg) are welcome if they are sociable with other animals (besides the dog there are also two cats, goats and chickens in the wild...). Please consult us if you wish to bring your pet ;)
* Use of the children's games under the supervision and responsibility of an adult, same thing for the games in the river.
* Campfire: it is a common place for all campers. Please supervise your children when a fire is lit.
* Tyrolean traverse accessible to children only (max 60kg), in July and August: the safety rules are explained to you once and the following uses are under your responsibility.
* Trout fishing in "no-kill", without barb.
* Use of gas: you can bring your own refillable bottles, we can also sell you a refill (references "campingaz" R901 - R904 - R907). Our cylinders are consigned and cannot be taken away, even if you do not finish them. Also it is sometimes possible to finish without expenses the gas left by the previous campers...

The site is large but we limit our capacity to 12 people for the well-being of all. Under certain conditions this capacity can be increased for the reception of a single group: consult us.

Families are welcome! 9€ per night for the first person, 7€ per night for the following persons of 13 years and more. Children from 4 to 12 years old : 5€ per night - Children under 4 years old : free.

  • For this stay, one word to start and summarize: exceptional! A naturally beautiful place, made magical by the facilities designed for our comfort. First of all, the stabilized site for our camping car, on the roadside but with so little traffic. The sanitary facilities are top notch, the campfire for a nice moment with the other campers by the river, the little quiet corners in the shade and cool even during the heat wave, the games for the children, the zip line !... and the kindness and availability of Josselin. We need a table, he brings it to us, we need a chair, ditto !... Thank you both for sharing this magnificent place with your visitors whom you know how to pamper. See you soon, because we will certainly come back to Fresse !

This place is a small corner of paradise which every year is improved, embellished,... we feel good there! Ideal with children (games, river, tyrolean, sanitary facilities/kitchen at the top,...), the whole charmed by an incredible welcome!
    As we say every time for 4 years now... it was not the last time we passed by Fresse!
    See you soon, and from the bottom of our hearts... Thank you!

The children loved the zip line, the river with the water pistols, the forest... and driving the tractor with the stuff in the trailer! What a joy to be able to make a real fire on the site (with the wood provided and the necessary to light it is unheard of). Thanks to Josselin for all his wise but not invasive advice. We enjoyed every moment and are already looking forward to coming back. Thanks to both of you!

  • We spent an excellent week at Stéphanie and Josselin's in their beautiful and large park. This one is perfectly maintained, shaded and allows us to enjoy a beautiful and big bowl of air in the middle of nature with the river in the background, which is really relaxing. The children loved to play in the river, with the games provided and to take care of the animals. The site is well secured and allows the children to be relatively autonomous, which is appreciated. Stéphanie and Josselin are very welcoming, caring hosts and always give good advice. A real nice meeting. The sanitary facilities are always clean and functional, as are the rest of the facilities on the site. The region is very beautiful and many hikes are in the immediate vicinity. We will definitely come back to Stéphanie and Josselin's place, which is for the moment, the best address where we have camped. A real big thank you for their welcome and their kindness which allowed us to fully enjoy our stay and to savor many good home made beers.

    The only drawback is the distance between the camping car site and the tent site when you are a group with both equipments.

  • A very pleasant stay with Stéphanie and Josselin who are very attentive and considerate for the comfort of the campers.
    The cleanliness and the quality of the equipment at our disposal are also to be noted.
    And if you like beer, Josselin produces excellent home-made beer.
    In short, you can go there with your eyes closed to discover this beautiful region!

  • Everything was perfect at Josselin and Stéphanie's. Very pleasant setting, perfect place to pitch your tent. Really nice place for a good motorcycle ride, and Josselin advised us to visit many places by motorcycle, not to mention the roadtrip to Switzerland.
    Campfire and barbecue available, very nice and out of sight.
    P.S. : The German beer that Josselin proposes is really a delight, it's a pity that I couldn't taste Josselin's craft beer because it was in preparation, but it's only a postponement. In any case, thank you for all the explanations about the making of the beer, it was really interesting to know more about it.
    I hope to see you again.

We will definitely come back! Patrick and Marion
