Nice place to camping, near a hotel and restaurant, you only pay Q.50, it’s a nice place to camping

Off the beaten track for sure. Beautiful lake. Some notes:
There is a gate about 4KM to the west where we paid 20Q to access the lake. Very nice woman gave a receipt apparently the whole area is private property.
The road from this gate down to the lake is a few KM of steep, rutted, twisty dirt. If you have 2wd you will struggle to get back up if it's been raining and even if dry it might be an adventure. It was wet, we were fine in 4WD low, but beware.
The hotel is not right on the edge of the lake. There is a view but it's about 100 meters up the hill. They were playing music and lots of lights in the yard behind the gate, we camped instead on their lower parking lot across the road but were not inside their gate. If we were doing it over again we would have asked the lady we paid at the gate if that covered camping on the edges of the lake at either of the other two Ioverlander spots and not bothered with this hotel.
The hotel manager was very nice, we paid 50Q for 2 of us as we were already there and it was late. One of us speaks.decent Spanish, we asked about swimming in the lake. He seemed to say it is not safe due to algae and pollution. I looks beautiful, if a local is telling you the water is too polluted...
Report Check-InNice place, paid 25Q. If you come in a camper/car there is a big flat place before entering to the hotel where I think could be a good and safe place to camp for free, if it doesnt there is still the hotel
