 We, a family of four, two adults and two teenagers, stayed for three nights in August. The location is excellent for peace and tranquillity. The views are beautiful. Shops are a drive away in the village of Drymen or further away in Balloch but the campsite shop is well supplied with basic camping essentials.
The facilities are clean, well kept and plentiful so no queuing despite the site being very busy. Showers well supplied with hot water but are push button operated and on a short timer so needed to be operated frequently.
On arrival the site does seem a little off-putting as there is a card operated barrier and there are several rules; however the site is in a very busy and popular area and on reflection the rules do make sense and support a very peaceful atmosphere on the site.
The pitch we had was under trees and so the ground was hard, full of tree roots and rocks. We needed steel pegs.
This site was the most expensive one we'd used in our short tour of Scotland, between £4 and £7 per night more than the others.
We spent a very relaxing and enjoyable few days here and would go back.

Stayed here for the Commonwealth Games as it looked like a lovely site within commuting distance of the Games venues. On arrival the staff were friendly and seemed to be efficient however we were very frustrated by the pitch system or rather a lack of one! twice we chose a pitch and twice we were told it was reserved, despite there being no signs to let us know, this after an 8 hour drive and combined with 27'c heat was rather annoying! Eventually we found a pitch and everything went well. This is an absolutely stunning site, the location is literally on the banks of the Loch which does draw in the midges but that's a small price to pay. It was obviously an exceptionally busy time with the majority of visitors coming for the Games, in spite of this the facilities were clean and well managed.
Our main and only gripe was that the staff refused to allow any concessions for the games with regards to vehicle entry on the site past 10. 30pm. Evening sessions finish at 10pm and with Glasgow being at least an hour away we, and many others, fell foul of the rule. We had to literally dump our car in the entrance gateway as the car park was full and so was every other available space. The site is on a dangerous road with no parking so we had no choice, we felt it would have been far safer to allow the gates to stay open just for the Games.

Had a fabulous few days here. Fantastic site. Views stupendous. We had a pitch on the loch side which was so beautiful. Glorious weather too - went for a swim in the loch to cool off.
On arrival we were swamped with rules, but all made sense really, after that we were left to do our own thing. We asked about having a picnic table and were told to take one ourselves from an unoccupied pitch. It was lovely sitting out there. Until the midges came at dusk. I have honestly never seen so many. Buzzing in my ears, eyes, up nose, despite deet and citronella candles. The only option was to retreat indoors.
Toilet and shower were lovely and clean, though quite a walk from our pitch. My fault as I did ask for a remote pitch. There was a 2nd shower block in our field but it was out of order.
No pub or shops nearby so fully self catering. The site shop does have a good range but no alcohol.
Great area for walking and water sports. Launch areas if you took your own boat.
This site is expensive, but well worth it. If just for the views and the peace and quiet.
We have only been caravan ing for a year, this is by far the best place we have stayed.

This is a lovely spacious site on the shores of Loch Lomond. Spectacular views We have visited several times. The managers are very friendly and helpful, nothing is too much trouble at any hour. The toilet block is spotless, only negative would be that the showers are those push button ones so you forever pressing to keep water flowing. There is a shop with a few groceries and freshly baked bread, they will bake to order which is great for fresh baguettes. There range of camping/caravan goods for if you've forgotten anything. Dog friendly with plenty of places to walk your dog off site.
There are 2 pubs a few miles in each direction, Balmaha and Rowardennan hotel. Both with good food.

This is a good spacious site on the shores of Loch Lomond. We have visited several times. The staff are friendly and very helpful.
Our grandsons love the freedom and can run around in relative safety. There is a play area for kids or just explore the woods, shore. The facilities are spotless.
There is a shop with groceries and freshly baked bread. They also have a great range of camping/caravan goods for if you've forgotten anything.
Only drawback is the road is quite bumpy at bits after Balmaha

This site is in an amazing location, right on the shores of Loch Lomond. The staff were friendly and helpful prior to us getting there and on arrival. Yes, there are a lot of rules, but the rules are fair enough and make it a cleaner, safer campsite. Best shower I've ever come across on a campsite, too! Piping hot water, and very clean.
The pitches were big enough, and the small shop had emergency supplies. We'll go again.

Upon arrival the site had to be checked to find a suitable pitch for us as apparently it has the tendency to flood in some areas due to a stream that comes down from the mountain and runs through the site.
I would say it was one of the more expensive sites we stayed at, but it had fantastic views of Loch Lomond.
Once given the go ahead, we tried to pitch our Tent which was unfortunately broken due to a pounding from a storm the night previously.
I went back to the reception to say that unfortunately we couldn't stay as our tent had broken beyond repair (never buying a pop up again!) and the staff couldn't have been more helpful. They even supplied a Tent we could borrow (free) for the night and one of the staff helped us to set up the tent.
Facilities were good, Pitches quite hard & stony. So make sure you have the right pegs!
Great site and great location.

This is not a cheap site ! We planned to stop for only 1 night in a motorhome, but ended up there for 3 as we liked it so much. We pitched right at the shore of Loch Lomond, beautiful views and a flat pitch.
The site is level, it is well maintained, well designed and very well spaced (and be warned, the wardens will enforce the spacing rules !) The toilets and showers were immaculate, regularly cleaned and nice, hot water all the time.
The shop on site is well stocked, the staff were very friendly and helpful. There is a smashing walk up the hillside just outside the site (the staff will show you how to get there and even give you a printed guide) this is well worth the effort to get up there as the views are spectacular !
No fires allowed, even on the shore, but barbecues are welcomed. We had great weather and very few midges - there are even gas powered midge killer machines on the site - with the exception of the cost, I'm struggling to find any negative to be honest !
I would recommend this site to anyone, tent, caravan or motorhome.

The campsite itself and facilities are really good. Being able to camp a few meters from the loch when you have a canoe and a dog is great.
The pitches are really flat however you do need to be aware that if you pitch near the water its on hard standing and need the correct pegs. We saw a group girls struggle for several hours trying to put up their tent with basic pegs.
There are several things that let down this site. The first and most important is the customer service, we have been here twice now and each time the staff (security guy) has completely irritated us. On our most recent visit he managed to do this within 5 minutes of us arriving. We arrived with 2 cars at separate times and although the 1st car was parked outside the campsite due to there 1 car policy we still had to argue about getting the 2nd car through the gate. Then when we got to our pitch we got out the car and the security guy came over to moan about dog not being on a lead even though we had just stepped out the car barely 20-30 seconds and didn't have a chance to put lead on.
There are several more instances but could take a lot more space to write them all.
The second let down is the lack of shops\attractions nearby, although this didn't affect us too much because we are active and go canoeing\walking, on days when it rained there was nothing else to do in local area.
