What makes it 75% Solo-Friendly: The wooded campground has free Wi-Fi, cowork lounge, pool, bike rental and social games, giving solos activities and autonomy, yet it sits outside city center so evening transport is needed.
Why 2-3 days visit duration is ideal for solo trip: Allows time to enjoy on-site pool, games and day trips into Lyon by bike.
Pick up city maps and tours:
Use the reception desk as a Lyon Tourist Office point to grab free maps and book guided tours.
Tip: Ask staff on arrival to reserve slots and check bus schedules.
Work or read in co-working space:
Settle in the central lodge where free Wi-Fi and desks are available.
Tip: Bring your laptop or book to avoid peak times around breakfast.
Swim in the heated pool:
Take a dip in the pool (open late April–late September) surrounded by pines.
Tip: Go early morning or after 7 pm to avoid the busiest hours.
Play ping-pong or pétanque:
Borrow equipment at no cost and join impromptu matches on the courts.
Tip: Strike up a conversation to meet other solo campers.
Rent an electric bike:
Cycle along the Rhône banks or into Vieux-Lyon directly from site.
Tip: Reserve your bike at reception the day before and wear a helmet.

Great overnight stop off on our road trip, travelling with pet - easy to find, late check-in was efficient and the amenities were exactly what we needed. The setting was beautiful and reception team were helpful before and after our arrival.

This is well-located site with a very friendly atmosphere. Transport links to Lyon by bus are great. The pool was a great facility to have on such hot days.

The main thing that we would recommend is improved is...

Best bit was getting a ride into Lyon. In an uber type transport.€13 each way. Too far too cycle into the city. Not sure would stay at this site again.

It is a good place to stop close to the motorway or if you want to visit central Lyon which is easily accessed using the bus stop outside the gate. The showers and toilets are good and modern and seemed pretty clean. The only place to get water for the caravan was from the motor home fill point right next to the chemical waste disposal which was...
Pool and café terrace run late April–late September. In cooler months expect pool closure and limited café hours. Spring and autumn bike rides need a light jacket.
