 This site is in a gorgeous location with direct access to the shoreline of Loch Lomond. Its lovely sitting on or walking along the 'beach'. Our children were very happy with this too.
There is a very good, enclosed playpark and a little wildlife corner which is a very nice touch.
All pitches have a lovely outlook.
We have been to a lot of campsites and the toilets and showers here are in my top 3. Very new looking.
Balmaha is a nice village. There is a park, forest walks, boats, ducks, ice cream shop and a pub which I think is
Very popular.
We got to more or less choose our pitch.
Great site.

This site is lovely, does not matter where you choose to pitch on site, yes you choose, every pitch has some sort of view of the loch. Grounds are kept well and facilities amazing.
Site was busy however there was no feeling of over crowding.
All in all, fab site. One word of warning on the road to the park approx 6 miles before there is one almighty steep Sharp bend, first gear job.
Be warned, however when you arrive at the site its all worth it. Small shop on site other than that its a long drive to the town. So don't forget to stock up.
Will be back to this haven.

Just back from the Cashel campsite & have to say it was brilliant.
We arrived on the Friday night around 8. 30pm and with reception closed phoned the number for arrivals posted on reception door & we were shortly greeted by a gentelman who let us know where we could pitch up.
Campsite wasn't too busy & there is a little stream where tents can be pitched next too & the toilets are only a short distance away from tent pitch as well as very good washing facilities for dishes etc. Toilets were clean enough and had ample shower facilities. The pitching grounds for tents are good & all allow you to have views of the loch which is stunning.
Small shop on site selling groceries (doesn't stock ciggies or alcohol) and is also the reception area. Staff friendly throughout visit & helpful if you need any information on the area.
At night people are all quiet and settled by around 11pm giving you the chance to get a good nights rest.
Nearby (3miles) is rowardennan hotel offering good food and drink & there are lots of lowland forest walks that can be walked outside of campsite.
Would say a good campsite for couples & families as well as those wanting to stop off from walking west highland way.
We are definitely going back!

We stayed here for a couple of nights. The views and walks from the site are excellent. It would be hard to find a more scenic and peaceful spot to camp. There is almost no road noise at night, and not much during the day.
All areas of the site are kept very clean and there were plenty of showers and toilets with ample hot water. The staff were very friendly and helpful. Some little extras I thought were expensive. The hairdryer in the ladies ate up 20p pieces very quickly and it cost £1.00 to freeze two freezer blocks.
We would recommend this site to our friends and would go again.

Arrived 1st April for a 3 night stay and received a really warm welcome.
We had a really good pitch right on the side of the loch, the weather was a bit glum and really windy but we ordered some freshly baked bread rolls from the reception ( well worth trying! ) and settled down for the night.
When we woke the next morning the weather was sunny and calm and we couldn't believe how great the view was, the place was breathtaking.
The shower blocks were always warm and spotlessly clean. There is not much to do in the area unless your into walking, which we did with the dog, but you don't really feel that you need to do anything because the place is amazing.
It is the perfect place to relax. Needless to say we didn't want to leave. We will definitely return.

This site is without exception the best I have ever seen. (I admit to being a bit biased being a Scot and loving this country.) Nonetheless this site is perfect. Unbelievable scenery from the pitches. Great, clean warm double shower blocks. Immaculate site kept so by dedicated, generous and very friendly staff - thanks folks we appreciate you though we sadly cannot name you here - but you know who you are. We're the couple in the Bright Blue Ford ambulance conversion.
There are a lot of rules on the site and my wife and I love them. Although there is a good playground and the Bonny Bonny Banks for the kids, they are not allowed to run riot and the peace and beauty of Loch Lomond can be appreciated at your ease. Rowardennan is on the EAST shore of the LOCH which is where the road ends so traffic is slight. The approach to the loch on the East is VERY tight with a right angle turn followed by a 1/6 slope so engage 1st gear here and very large rigs would have to be very careful. The site has 3 different types of pitch with electric hook ups for most and superior pitches provided with picnic benches and seats and usually a loch shore pitch too.

Spent a couple of nights on this site and was really impressed. It is set right on the shore of Loch Lomond, on the quieter east side. There's much to do in the area, with excellent walking trails (including Ben Lomond) and watersports/boat trips.
Facilities were very good. They were spotlessly clean and there was always hot water, though this comes at a cost - site fees a pretty high here. Site staff were accommodating and left you to choose your preferred pitch.
All in all a great site. I'd definitely recommend it.

Very impressed with this site.
We had an extremely warm welcome from all staff on duty when we arrived.
This is a well laid out site with some stunning views.
We could not praise the facilities high enough.
The toilet and shower blocks were cleaned regularly and were always very clean.
(the only reason they ever fell below this standard for a short time was because of the odd inconsiderate camper)
They do take measures to try to control the midgie but as this is Scotland you must accept that is impossible to defeat this pest completely.
They have a pretty well stocked shop, and prices that don't make you wince.
Can't fault the cleanliness of the site (staff cleaned the area regularly and always seemed busy maintaining the site.
If you want to party into the wee small hours, please go somewhere else as this is a site for those who are looking for a more sedate experience.
There are a couple of killer forest walks on the doorstep and you can also experience a few miles of the West Highland Way which passes bvy the front gate.
Definitely plan to return to this site.

Went for the weekend to this site with our tent, really friendly people who run this site.
The site office is set out as a small cafe and shop, where you can get almost anything and the prices are good, you can even order a pizza, or replace camping equipment, very impressed!
The site itself is beautiful, on the banks of the loch it has fantastic views of ben lomond, good hard standing for tourers and access for boats, the site is pet and child friendly with swings etc and lots of water sports for the kids to join in.
Even so it was incredibly peaceful
The shower and toilet blocks are modern clean and welcoming with plenty of hot water.
The pot washing facilities are open so when you are washing your dishes the house martins and swifts are flying in and out just above your heads feeding their young and are not fazed by humans at all, they fly very low to the ground next to the tents to catch insects. You see an amazing variety of birds and the ducks always come around shouting for their breakfast.
The only downside was the weather and the midges
We got bitten from top to toe but I'm ready for them next weekend this time armed with insecticides and candles lol

This is a lovely site. Very peaceful and tranquil - fantastic views of Loch Lommond too!
We stayed here for 6 nights and really enjoyed it. Lots of good walks nearby.
We found the site facilities very good. Showers and toilets were very clean and there was always hot water. One thing we did like was the fact that there was an insect 'zapper' in the toilet block so you could get showered in peace without worrying about getting bitten to death by midges - an absolute must at this time of year!
The wardens on this site are lovely - very friendly and incredibly hard working too - always emptying rubbish, painting and generally keeping the place in tip top condition.
The only down side to this site is that you have to drive approx 11 miles from it to the main road at Drymen before you can set off to visit other destinations. However, it really is a small price to pay for such a lovely site. We would definitely go back again.
