Customer Reviews
Katia
The hosts were absolutelly very friendly. Good food, cold beer available. Very clean ablutions with toilet paper. Cold/warm shower. Small fridge (free) and washing machine available. Wifi. The field for campers and tents is very dry, not much shade. Beautiful surroundings (mountains). 6 km walking to the canyon (6 km back uphill).

This summer, we were guests at this wonderful campsite. We had a great time and were delighted to have found this place. We especially recommend the incredibly good dinner, lovingly prepared by the family. I can warmly recommend this place to anyone. We took a long road trip through many countries, but this special place and especially the lovely hostess Jasmina have remained particularly positive in our memories.

Had a great time, stayed for two nights in September. A good starting point for the visit of the canyon, around 40minutes one way through the forest. 20€\night It was a really great experience, the owners were kind, always around to help out, the views around were great and the animals were lovely!😊
Henrik
Spent 2 nights there. Located In a beautiful area. Very friendly hosts. Access road very narrow and bumpy. Toilets and showers were fine but no hot water. WiFi not working and the last morning no water. Spent most time inside the camper due to flies.

Absolutely gorgeous campsite right on the edge of Matka Canyon. We stayed there for two nights in our tent, and the family were very welcoming and friendly. The hosts were extremely accommodating of our needs and are just genuinely lovely people. The views from the campsite are incredible, and the short journey to the Canyon is the icing on the cake. Absolutely would recommend for camping near Skopje, and would be somewhere to return to in the future! 😊
