    Excellent! Sites were extra large and paved. Very clean and well groomed. Pool area was very nice.

    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!

    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!

    We have stayed here the last five years - this campground continues to evolve and get even better…read more If looking for a higher end park with lots of kid play areas - I highly recommend. The outside and inside pools and water park area are excellent - the outdoor adult hot tub is A+. The grounds and sites are very clean and manicured with maturing landscaping. Many kids for mine to play with & they enforce kids curfew on the grounds at night and I personally think that is great. I find that RV parks that enforce their rules are better managed and I appreciate that. The video game room has allot gambling style games which I guess is what people like now - I maybe I am just old -lol. If anything critical - I would say the food service needs to improve or at least get better at managing expectations - been a year maybe it is better now - just has a general vibe of making stuff happen but no real attention to details.

    The amenities are fantastic. The staff? That's another story…read more We had a large group camping together for the week across multiple sites. From night one, it felt like we had our own personal security detail. We were told to stop playing cornhole before 10pm because the bags made too much of a "thumping" sound. Mind you, we were on the back side of the campground with only our own group around us. The next night, the same employee told us he'd received complaints... only to admit he actually hadn't and was "just doing his job." By night three, neighboring campers had joined us, we played until midnight, and no one said a word. Either Ranger Rick took the night off, or the cornhole bags had been rehabilitated and were no longer considered a public safety threat. Meanwhile, other campers were out being loud, and kids were flying around on golf carts, but that didn't seem to warrant the same attention. Then came the adults-only pool hour. Staff stormed into the pool area yelling, "911! Everybody evacuate!" creating complete panic. We were told someone had called 911 because of us. Funny thing is...No police arrived. No ambulance arrived. No emergency responders arrived. If there had been a real emergency, yelling "911!" without any explanation would have created exactly the kind of chaos emergency responders try to avoid. When we simply asked to speak with the owner about how the situation was handled, we were instead threatened with eviction and told that we were using their pool like it was in our own backyard..... Essentially the owner arrived asking, "Who's being the problem and who is getting kicked out?" before asking what had actually happened. He gave us 30 minutes to pack multiple RVs, families, and equipment. At 10:30pm six golf carts rolled up like the FBI was serving a search warrant. Thankfully, after everyone calmed down and had an actual adult conversation, we were allowed to stay. Three members of our group were still asked to leave because during the chaos she expressed how inappropriate it was to create panic by yelling "911" over a non-emergency. Here's the thing: we have no problem following rules. We also have no problem with people enjoying their campsites. That's kind of the point of camping... We stopped playing cornhole when we were asked. We respected quiet hours and packed everything away by 10pm for the remainder of our stay. What we do have a problem with is inconsistent enforcement, intimidation, and staff sneaking around on golf carts with their lights off like they are part of some mafia.... Making paying guests feel like they're under surveillance instead of on vacation isn't exactly the welcoming atmosphere you'd hope for. In the end, we won't remember the amenities or the campsites (well, we will remember them being flooded by their nightly rainforest sprinkler systems- be sure to put everything away if you don't want it drenched). We'll remember adults being treated like children, kids who were afraid to walk around with fear of being seen, and staff who seemed far more interested in policing guests than welcoming them. If management ever puts as much effort into hospitality as they do surveillance, this place could be one of the best campgrounds to visit.
