Only been once, to Landal Warsberg in Saarburg, near the Luxembourg border. Would definitely go again, a different experience to France and Italy.
Some basic things we figured out :
1/ Germany is huge. While we all know this, it's still easy to look at the distance on a map and underestimate it.
2/ Everyone knows the autobahns have no speed limit. A lot of people dont realise that there are quite a lot of stretches, especially around cities, where there actually are speed limits.
3/ Make an effort (if you haven't already) to learn basic German - numbers, food and how to ask directions, etc. We found that while the people were very friendly and willing to help, English was spoken much less than in France. When we arrived in Saarburg the main town roundabout was closed and a diversion was in place. We got hopelessly lost trying to find the campsite and had to ask directions. We asked two random people, neither of whom spoke a word of English. Would probably still be driving around had I not learnt basic left and right, etc.
4/ There isn't really the same breadth of large supermarkets as there are in France, Lidl is very popular.
5/ Shoes. The Germans do quality shoes like no-one else. Stock up while you're there.
