ABOUT THE CAMPSITE

Camping Vrijhaven Heeg

LOCATION Friesland, Netherlands
SEASON April – October
PERFECT FOR Families, couples & friends
RATING 4.3 / 5 stars

Camping Vrijhaven is situated on the border of land and water, just within the built-up area of the picturesque Frisian village of Heeg. Water sports enthusiasts can actively enjoy the outdoors here, whilst the campsite offers peace and space to relax together. One of its greatest advantages: it is closer than you think!

Jacob, Karin and their dedicated team are ready to make your stay unforgettable. Hire a little boat and set off directly from the jetty onto the water, enjoy a romantic sunset in a Dutchtub hot tub, or BBQ with friends around the campfire. Sustainability, innovation and personal attention are at the heart of everything they do.
