This park misrepresents their camping fee. They say their…read morecamping fee is $30 per day. After you get there, they inform you that there will be an additional fee of $20 per day to park your cars ... including the day you leave. So, your bill becomes doubled. 2 days camping = $60.00 Truck to pull camper and wife's car = $60.00 ($20 just to leave in the morning) Total = $120.00 In addition, the roads in the park are in terrible repair. Pot Holes 3 feet wide shake everything in the trailer.... requiring you to crawl all the way to your spot and back out. We will not be going back to this park to camp again.

Very affordable campground and you quickly fall in love with the seasonal "Big Bend" family of…read moreseasonal campers in the park. It's a fun campground with dogs allowed. I recommend having a boat or coming with someone who has a boat because that's what most people do during the day. They head out onto the river to tube, cruise and hang out. The camp ground can get a little rowdy at night, especially on holiday weekends. Definitely a budget friendly camp ground with great sunsets and people!!

A very nice view in itself. Then the boardwalk travels on, then goes under a bridge and next to a sand dune, then Bam! The lake and path funnel into Lake Michigan and the path onto an amazing beach. I had no idea this beautiful public beach was here. The views are outstanding and the sand is pristine. We took the dog, yes on a leash, for a walk of the beach and had a great time. Overall an easy 5 star review. Would I return? Absolutely! A must stop.

The restrooms were as clean as one can expect being a park setting. There was real soap rather than just sanitizer and air dryers. The park grounds appeared well maintained. This park also has an art/craft barn, and a decent little shop with necessities, snacks, beverages (even coffee and hot chocolate!), And of course live bait. The day pass is $10.00 per vehicle. The only real downfall was how far you have to walk to the bathrooms

We made a reservation but due a family emergency we were unable to go…read more I called to cancel the reservation and was told that the manager would have to determine the refund. The attendant asked for my phone number so that the manager could call me back. No call back. Hours later I left a voicemail asking for the manager to call me back. Nothing. At the end of the business day I called again and the person that answered the phone said that the manager had to call me back but would see if they were available. The person did not put me on hold so I could hear the conversation in the background and the "manager" didn't even pick up the phone. She just yelled at the attendant to tell me "no refunds ". She wouldn't even come to the phone and talk to me. This manager is super rude and unprofessional. I will never book this park again.

I can't say enough good things about our experience here... Amazing park. Stay for the sunset!
