I like that they collect trash twice a day, you just need to put trash out next to your site number. They light up the site number so it was very easy to find out site when we got back in the dark. No alcohol campground so in general, it isn't noisy or loud, just people enjoy their time. Easy in and out as one way around campground. Has lots of things to do for little kid, they have rotating weekly schedule. My toddler loves the playground & big sandbox. We ate some ice cream too as a night treat. I definitely want to be back next year. Just one small thing to keep in mind: as a T mobile user, all of us don't have any cell service. The only place they have wifi is the Cove, so we took turn to spend a short time there to use wifi to keep in touch with family at home. We are okay with no wifi but it is a bit difficult with no cell service.

You will hear the laughter and cheers as children play throughout the day! While the pool was definitively the favorite spot of our 6 year old, there really were so many things to do in this campground. There were plenty of staff members to make sure everything was running smoothly. We would rank this as one of the top 5 campgrounds that we have stayed at!

The bathhouse is kept clean several times a day. Staff is very nice and accommodating. The owner, Brian, is nice and understanding when you need to be moved. He has several rental campers, fully stocked, so all you mainly need are your clothes and personal items. Some of the campers have bunks to accommodate families. No pets are allowed in the rental campers. They have a few large sites for a large group of campers, but it is dry camping. The sites are not paved. The sites are narrow. There are a few that are wider. They still can accommodate toy haulers and motor homes. They also provide overflow parking for FREE, for your 4x4s, cargo trailers, flatbeds, extra vehicles, flatbed, etc. Val-du is a little over 1 mile from Silver Lake. Ideal location just away from the busy down town, but close enough to ride bikes. There is a laundry room open 24 hours. The small store has some laundry soaps. The store is well stocked with plenty of Silver Lake memorabilia to take home or give family and friends. They also sell some camping supplies like showing bags, small teens, lawn chairs, ice, firewood, pop, candy, fire starter, lighter fluid, stores makings, including the sticks to put them on over your fire. They sell sweaters, hats, t-shirts, flip-flops, blankets, towels, tarps, ice cream, pop, water, some games, and so much more. We love this campground and will return. They do have quiet hours between 11pm and 8am. This isn't a party place to stay up all night drinking and being loud. The Silver Lake area has a noise ordinance at 11pm. It's the law.

Jerry, his wife Chris and the boys have always treated us almost like family. The pool and bathrooms are always clean, a grocery store 100yd walk fire basics, ice and firewood. Coffee and bakery shop, mini golf, go carts, BBQ wings restaurant and multiple pizza places. The day to day lots lack grass somewhat as we go late in the year after all the business of tent and trailers covering the lots and a lot of oak trees but we're camping. Part of the experience. Plus the dunes and the lighthouse. Can't recommend Sandy Shores enough.

We have always camped at Mears State Park...after camping at Whispering Surf this will be our first choice! First off the owners Jane and Andy and great! They are super nice, knowledgeable and want you to enjoy your stay while being respectful of other campers and their property. I was extremely impressed how they dealt with the Covid restrictions...We felt extremely safe and my family was able to enjoy our camping experience! First off, I don't know about you but my husband and I do not always communicate great when parking our camper...well forget about that at Whispering Surf....The Campground Host will guide you to your site and instruct the driver exactly which way to turn the wheel to get the camper parked on the site perfectly! This is AMAZING!!!! We love the full hookup! They come around twice a day and pick up your garbage from your campsite. They have an app they use called campers app in which you can order wood, ice, firewood, fire starters, Hershey Bar, marshmallows, graham crackers, and more...they they deliver the items to your site. They have a small mini golf course, and play ground however they were not used much due to Covid. This campground is VERY nice, VERY maintained but not fancy...it is perfect for us...we are camping. There is a little resort next door that rents very basic older pontoons for full or half day for very low prices. Which is great if you want to putter around bass lake. The people we have met at Whispering Surf have been kind, diverse and from all walks of life. Quiet hours are similar to most campgrounds, as long as your outside music is off and you can't be heard and aren't disturbing other campers it didn't seem to be problem for us to be out by our fire after quiet hours. We love this campground and plan on booking several spots for next season!

Our lot was plenty big and was clean when we arrived. They give you a program of all the activists happening during your time of stay which was great. I loved that they had fun things for the kids to do. The park is paved so you don't have to worry about dust kicking up every time a car goes by. I also loved that it was within walking distance to some really great shops, Craig's Cruisers and even a few restaurants. If you're in the Silver Lake area you should consider staying here. I think it would be fun even if you don't have kids.

Being vegetarian I was scared there wouldn't be any options but they offered me veggie meats and what not. The staff is kind and friendly and they always have a great band and speaker for retreats. I'd highly recommend going here! They have inside and outside activities, from my knowledge they have re-ball, horse back riding, tubing, snow tubing, a zip line, and gym activities. They also have a room with air hockey, carpet ball, foosball, and a ping pong table. They also have a rock climbing wall, and with this stuff you'll never be bored!
