Tip from our team
My advice is to choose Golden Lakes Village primarily for its location and outdoor lifestyle. This is a destination where the surrounding landscape is as important as the accommodation itself. Several recent guests have particularly appreciated the spacious villas, attractive setting, cleanliness and easy access to the lake, while families have highlighted how much there is to do nearby. If you are travelling with children, we would make the lake area a priority. The supervised bathing area at Plate Taille is only around 200 metres from Golden Lakes Village, and the combination of beach, water and outdoor activities makes it an easy choice for summer days. For active families, bring or hire bicycles if possible. The Eau d’Heure Lakes have extensive cycling opportunities, including routes around the lakes, while walkers can follow trails through the surrounding woodland and countryside. We also recommend booking popular activities ahead during the summer. Natura Parc, watersports and other attractions can become busy during school holidays, so planning one or two activities before arrival makes the holiday much easier. For meals, reserve La Brasserie des Lacs rather than simply turning up, particularly during July and August. The restaurant operates daily, but reservations are recommended. One practical point worth remembering: there is no full supermarket inside the village, so we advise doing your main grocery shopping before settling into your villa. The nearest larger supermarket is in Cerfontaine. Finally, check the Golden Lakes app during your stay for the latest children's activities, Mini Club events and lakeside entertainment. Summer programming changes, so the app is the best way to see what is happening during your particular week.
