"Another excellent camping spot on our way to Bergen. We spent 1 night here and it was perfect. The cabin was nice and clean, the views from the camp ground were amazing and the facilities like shared kitchen, shower stalls and toilets were very clean and well kept. I felt the price was on the higher side especially for a small cabin but the premium location and the amenities probably add up. For families and large groups, this may be an excellent choice."
