Camping Magic Lake - Lake of Como

The Como lake area is one of our favorite places for day trips. I decided to take my scooter for a full circuit, since we usually just go to the Lecco side or Triangolo Lariano, and I'd never really been on the Como side. I also wanted to take a bit longer of a break, so I decided to stop in Dongo on the north end of the lake for a night of camping at Camping Magic Lake.
Camping Magic Lake is a smaller site right on the lake. Being off-season, I had no trouble finding a pitch, but they recommend a 2-3 week heads up during peak season, June-August. Even being the end of September, there were plenty of people.
The campground is fairly small, well organized and clean. There is a nice little bar on site, and it's only a couple minutes walk to the nearest grocery store. The pitches are kind of small, but level and well organized and maintained. The staff are friendly and speak English. Stepping through the back gate, you get a wonderful view of the Lecco/Bergamo mountains.
Overall, I really liked this place, and hope to do some weekend camping there with my daughter next year.
