Review of Chalets-Camping Domaine des Dunes 3*

Overcrowded and underserviced, worst camping experience ever! The tenting sites were so small relative to the $35.00 nightly fee. The sites were so incredibly small that there was no room to install the bug tent over the ridiculously small picnic table. Campers have to walk directly through other sites, often uncomfortably close other tents or people sitting down to eat, just to gain access to their own site. This created a noisy environment which lacked in privacy as we could see and hear what everyone was doing. Although, one could enjoy a campfire without actually building one as we sat only two metres from our neighbour’s campfire. The comfort station, was seriously inadequate for the number of people who needed to use it. There were only two shower stalls and two toilets in each of the ladies and men’s room to service the dozens of sites. Often there was only one functioning toilet and the showers are expensive at $1.00 for four measly minutes. Just one minute extra to shower would have made a huge difference thus minimizing the need to spend another dollar for an extra minute or two. During the evening we could never shower much before 11:00 pm due to the long line up at the showers. The “free” Wi-Fi was a joke. I logged on for 10 minutes and logged out, then back on a few minutes later and I was prompted with a message telling me that I had exceeded my Wi-Fi usage for the day. This happened each day whenever I tried to access the Wi-Fi. We have camped at many private campgrounds and this has been by far the worst. It seems that the owners care more about maximizing their profits by cramming in as many campers as they legally can than the actual comfort of their customers. I would not recommend this campground to anyone.
