La Ravoire campsite, Doussard on Lake Annecy (Yelloh! Village): dates, prices, capacity
La Ravoire campsite in Doussard is open from 17 April to 20 September 2026, with only 49 pitches and 75 rental units. A more intimate size than the average campsite at the south end of the lake, between the water and the Alpine peaks.
La Ravoire, at Doussard at the south end of the lake, is described as a family campsite of limited size, far from the big resorts in the area. It is this more intimate format, more than the number of pitches, that comes up in every description consulted.
Here are the 2026 dates, the prices found and the real capacity of the site, run under the Yelloh! Village brand.
When does La Ravoire campsite open in 2026?
The campsite is open from 17 April to 20 September 2026, a season confirmed by the French, English and German Yelloh! Village listings. The sources consulted do not publish dates for the three previous years: there is no way of telling whether this window is stable from one year to the next.
The site explicitly gives from 4 July to 28 August 2026 as its high season, without saying what that changes in practice beyond prices.
What is La Ravoire campsite's capacity?
The site has 75 rental units and 49 pitches for tents and vans, 124 units in all. A tourist directory sums up the same total as a “124-place campsite”, a compatible reading that does not split rentals from pitches.
That is much smaller than the big west-shore campsites described in camping at Lake Annecy, which explains the “intimate” positioning stressed by local sources.
How much does a stay at La Ravoire cost?
- Pitch package: €25.20 to €44.80 a night depending on the period.
- Mobile home by the week: €260 to €1,560, a wide gap reflecting the difference between low and high season.
Supplements (pets, extra person) exist according to the sources consulted, but no detailed price list was found to put exact figures on them.

The south end of the lake has at least three comparable campsites: La Ravoire at Doussard, Les Fontaines and Lo Vêlajo at Lathuile. Local sources present La Ravoire as the smallest and most intimate of the three, a ranking drawn from the descriptions rather than from a direct comparison of figures.
The constant selling point remains the setting between the lake and the Alpine peaks, close to Doussard beach and the Bout du Lac nature reserve, covered in the Bout du Lac nature reserve.
What isn't published about this campsite?
There is no data on visitor numbers, occupancy or economic impact. Nothing either on the site's history before it joined the Yelloh! Village network. The sources record no unexpected closure, but their silence does not prove there has never been one.
To compare with other campsites in the same area, Sandaya La Nublière campsite and La Ferme campsite at Lathuile cover neighbouring sites, with their own contradictions on dates and capacity.
From Doussard, the ride round the lake starts right on the greenway: the Annecy activities page groups bike hire, paddleboarding and cruises with duration and price.
