Who are we ?
Camping la Cascade is first and foremost a family story . Created by the mother of the current owner, it has been built up over the years with patience and dedication. Here, several generations have worked in the campsite, the resort, and the village bars and restaurants. The mountains are not just a
backdrop; they are a part of everyday life, a reality.
A trained carpenter and tracker, the owner has shaped the campsite in his own image. His wife, a freelance journalist for a local newspaper, is involved in the life of the site and its welcoming atmosphere.
Together, they perpetuate a tradition of discreet, attentive, and respectful hospitality.
The campsite has never sought to grow at all costs. It has preferred to remain true to its identity, that of a simple place, deeply rooted in its territory.
