Our story
From Domaine Émeraude to the Bear's Campground
A passing of the heart
Camping de l'Ours is much more than a business; it's a story of passion and continuity. Long known as Domaine Émeraude, this corner of paradise has been welcoming men from our community for over 50 years.
Why "The Bear"? A nod to brotherhood.
We are often asked where our new name came from. It was born from a gesture of pure camaraderie. The name Camping de l'Ours was inspired by a special gift we received from Island Springs Resort in Florida, given to us by our friend Martin Ruddock.
The same vision, a new energy
The name has changed, but the soul remains the same. Camping de l'Ours is a space exclusively reserved for men, where friendship, respect, and enjoyment are at the heart of the experience. As the new owners, we are committed to continuously enhancing the facilities, while preserving the rustic charm that has captivated you for half a century.
