"Still one of my fav places to go. Lovely small site, villa has been reopened. Added a sauna. Nice located at the lake. Very friendly and helpful staff everywhere. Clean facilities. Always worth a stay"
Ellen Thimm (Camper Globetrotter)
"Nicely located by the side of a lake, but so are a lot of campings in Sweden. It doesn't justify the out-of-proportion high price for people camping with a small tent and without electricity (350kr). When asking this much, expectations are raised but in this case unfortunately not met. For example, the campground for tents is bumpy and could do with levelling out. Also, it would be nice if it were checked for incidentally left waist of a previous camper (we found rope, plastic, an old lighter on the tentgrounds). The kitchen could be cleaner, and it would be nice to be able to open a window...
Summarizing: everything is 'ok', but not for this price for tents. We hope you'll reconsider it for future people camping..."

"Very pleasant stay at one of the cabins at Sjosidan! We originally planned to camp but one of the cabins became available and we stayed for a night. It was so nice that we even decided to extend our stay for another night. The cabin was modern fitted - a very nice bathroom with a good shower, room had a comfy bed, a small stove & kitchen equipment, small table, chairs, fridge and a TV. WiFi was working without a hitch. There was a patio with chairs, table and a small bbq. As we were traveling by bikes 🚲🚲 it was great to be able to roll them onto the patio.
The cabin had a nice view towards the lake and you could still get some privacy. The swimming spot was just one minute from the cabin so you could refresh in the morning 🌅 Please note that you can purchase sheets & towels at additional price and you should clean your accommodation when leaving.
As a camper I would be less inclined to stay - okay for a night but the site doesn't have as much to offer for tent travellers as other places. Please note that when you arrive at the site there are two companies - one that does kayaks and one with cabins. You could camp with either, just in different spots. (We initially asked the kayak guys and they showed us a pitch next to the lake - we could see a toilet next to it, but that was basically it for 350 SEK.) For the cabin company there was a pitch in the green area but I don't know the price. There was no kitchen or common room though and as it was raining we were not in a mood to stay in a tent for the whole day and so we went for a cabin."
