Our story
We are twin sisters Leonie Vorenkamp and Renee Vorenkamp. It has always been our dream to start our own guest accommodation. Since 2022, we have been the owners of the campsite and we want to transform it into Boscamping Zwanemeer. A special place among the trees in the forest called Zwanemeerbos.
