    Being in rural Michigan, this is a great place to camp. The campground was not all that big, which…read moreisn't necessarily a bad thing because you're so close to the small playground, bathrooms/showers (very clean), pool (they said it was heated, but it wasn't really when we went), and the lake. It's not the biggest lake, but definitely serves the purpose of kayaking or canoeing (in a small area) and paddle boats. It was $4 for an hour of paddle boating and not much more for kayaks or canoes. There technically is a "beach," but it's basically a small stretch of sand that serves as canoe/kayak/paddle boats storage. There was a fish cleaning station, so I'm guessing it's good for fishing? It was so convenient that they have propane fill up onsite in addition to being able to buy ice and wood. It's great that they don't overcharge the captive audience, we really do appreciate that. The spots were roomy enough, but certainly could've used another foot or two. Our friends rented the spot next to us and it was a perfect set up. The grounds were clean, the bathrooms/showers were clean, the playground was clean. I think one of the very few things it needs improvement on is the identification of the water/electric stations. It's not that big of a deal, but the camper that arrived before us was using the station that should've belonged to us. Thank goodness our friend had an extension hose and extension cord, otherwise we would've had a hard time reaching the water and electric. Our friends and I had spot 60 and 61. 61 is a corner spot. Even though we were right next to the corner, I never felt like there was too much foot traffic from people walking by. Overall, given the location, it was a great campground and I would go back again.

    Great welcoming campground. The private lake has huge fish in and is the perfect size to kayak…read morearound. They rent row boats, paddle boats and kayaks. The pool is very refreshing especially on a hot summer day. They have individual bathrooms and showers which are kept clean. There is a great walking trail across the street. Atv trails are close by so there is something for everyone.

    We really love this campground! The Pentwater/Ludington area is probably our favorite area to camp…read more We have friends who have a seasonal site here so we decided to try it this year. 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!

    This campground is wonderful in many ways. Well maintained, friendly & helpful staffs. They pay…read moreattention to little details & so close to the sand dunes. 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.

    We stayed at this campground after researching the area extensively. It is definitely what it says,…read morea family campground! 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!
