We stayed for 2 nights. Lots of space between motorhomes and caravans. Site was really clean. Within walking distance to shops with nearby access to buses, including buses to Oban and Glasgow
Good range of tourist information available in town
Great area for walking and sight seeing. Near to West Highland Way
Site had good toilet and washroom block, which was clean and heated. There was a play area for children

We had used their sister site in Aberdeen and were so impressed that we booked on to this one. Whilst, in my opinion it is not as good as Deeside, Aberdeen it is still a pleasant site. Our pitch was of good size with a lovely little stream behind it and the site is well laid out and clean.
The toilet block is a little small for a site of this size, but adequate for the number of people on site when we were there. The water in the showers could certainly be warmer, but the sink water was always hot and the facilities clean. We ate at the Cantonese just out of the gates and the food was of excellent quality and good value for money, some people have said it is expensive but at £40. 00 for a starter, 2 mains and rice, a pudding and 2 drinks each it seemed very good value to me.
The Kilted Skirlie at the shopping centre was also of very good value and the food pleasant. The only complaint we had was that on going to use the dryer in the laundry it was token only, and open until 9. 00pm but tokens had to be bought from th reception, which closed at 6. 00pm.

Stayed here 11- 18 August 2012
Site has easy access, with plenty of space as you arrive for reception, the staff where extremely pleasant and helpful, explaining the layout of the park and facilities. The pitches where well spaced and plenty of room, all hard standing (chippings ). You will need hard rock awning pegs.
Plenty of turnover of motorhomes as a stopover.
Mixed site of Static Homes, seasonal pitched tourers as well as tourers and motorhomes.
Site is well kept and is being constantly maintained by pleasant staff who always speak to you and are helpful with tips of where to go and what to see. Would stay here again no problem.

Paula had never been to Scotland before so we stayed here for two nights with our little Shih-tzu Sam, en-route to the Western Highlands so that she could see more of the beautiful scenery Scotland has to offer, and boy it didn't disappoint, she fell in love with Scotland almost as soon as we got there.
We had booked a fully serviced pitch which made our lives easier during our stay. The pitch was a good size and had water, EHU, tv and a drainage point all in situ.
On arrival we were shown on a map where our pitch was and after handing over a fiver deposit, we were handed our keys to the toilet block and chemical toilet disposal room. Why these are necessary is anyone's guess, we only assumed that it kept the children from keep going in and out as happens at some sites? These were very modern, clean and warm but the water took quite a while to get hot in the showers. The site was much larger than we normally use and was surprised that the mens only had 3 toilets, 3 showers, about 8 sinks and a bath for you to wash small children, having said this, we didn't have to queue whilst we were there. Showers are the push button type that don't stay on for very long.
The site itself is lovely and picturesque with pine and spruce trees adorning the perimeter of the site and only a 15 minute walk to Loch Lomond itself, where you can catch the ferry bus to Luss or Malmaha.
We travelled to both Malmaha and Luss by car and what lovely places they are to visit with scenic views most of the way to Malmaha and the stunning village of Luss with its flower covered candy box cottages. (don't forget your camera). There was a wedding at the local church the day we visited Luss, with a piper playing outside, this just made the day much more special, hearing the pipes and seeing the beauty of Loch Lomond from a very pretty vantage point.
Back to the Site, there is a dog walking area, well, more of a trail really for you to exercise dogs on leads but it doesn't take long to get to the other end as you walk along the back of Mcdonalds. There are quite a few wild rabbits on site so please keep dogs on leads at all times.
The Mcdonalds is situated just outside and to the right of the campsite next to a chinese restaurant that also delivers to the site. The prices are on the high side so we decided not to bother but we have read on here that they are really nice.
Overall we enjoyed our stay here but would prefer a smaller site, but that's just us, the staff were very friendly and helpful and even made arrangements for us to get our key deposit back the previous night as we were leaving before the office opened the following morning, and issued us with a spare key for the toilet block to shove through the letter box on departure.
Would we return, possibly not, but not through any fault of the site, purely because we prefer smaller sites.

This is day-trip distance for us, so we wouldn't usually stay but we had an event locally and stayed 2 nights. We feel neutral about the site - we wouldn't avoid it in future, but we won't rush back. We wouldn't base ourselves here for a holiday, as touring with a motorhome takes you past other sites (e. G. Several at East Loch Lomond which give you loch views and a beach).
Good points - Motorhomes all on hardstands and well spaced, all with EHU; a large site but well divided by trees and the old estate wall so it feels smaller; well managed and maintained; £21. 50 pn seemed reasonable (but costs more to pay by credit card); motorhome service bay; it's a chain and the staff are pleasant. Toilets had free showers, some sink & toilet cubicles, one toilet and shower cubicle, a free hairdryer, and hip baths (£1 per ration of hot water). There are regular Farmers Markets at Lomond Shores near the Jenners shop, in walking distance. There's a train station and a Co-op in the town.
Niggles - The site could be anywhere as there are no views of the Loch or the hills; dog walk is marred by piles of builders' and gardeners' rubbish; having a radio playing in the toilets is OK, but here it's Radio 2 - local radio would give local weather, and advertise local events; the toilet paper is unpleasantly cheap & thin; there is one central shower drain which means that next door lady's suds and lather drained onto my feet. (I'd use the toilet and shower cubicle to avoid this if I come back, as that shower had its own tray and was much bigger. )
A seasonal caravan had loud music, singing and swearing until nearly 1 am on Saturday - that's not the site's fault, but I hope this lack of consideration doesn't happen every time they visit for the weekend.

Good site well laid out with friendly receptionist they stocked a few bits and pieces you may run out of. Toilet block clean warm and had plenty of hot water.
Nice walk left out of gates, to a outlet centre, sea world and a nice little bay with coffee shops and a little market on different days it was all med food whilst I was there.
Turn right out of gate and a pleasant walk to the village with plenty of places to eat and drink and a couple of shops covering all you r needs (there was supermarket but a car was needed).
We took a mini cruise to Luss (very pretty village) there was a good commentary giving you all the details of houses, Islands and golf clubs you passed on shore very good value.
There is a Chinese Restaurant close to the site food OK but we found very pricey,
Would go again for facilities and you can get to so many places from there.
