Whispering Surf Campground at Bass Lake

We booked a tent site after seeing how great the sites looked online! They seemed spacious and tucked away in the woods, exactly what we were hoping for. Upon arrival, the staff was extremely kind and drove us to our spot. Unfortunately, the map was exaggerated and our spot we thought would be spacious and private, was roughly 5ft from the road and very small. The tent lots felt misplaced and unintentional. The woods are a private property so we had no access to that and that property boundary is right up to the site. Our view was of the other guests enjoying the campsite in their RVs. I will say, the atmosphere was very family friendly and welcoming. Everyone seemed to be enjoying themselves and the property. We did feel misled by the map in terms of what to expect for our spot. I would not recommend tent camping with this campground. However, the RV spots seemed fine. We decided not to stay due to the lack of privacy at our site.

Our family has had this campground on our list for a couple years. We finally decided to go for the holiday weekend and we loved it!! Staff was literally waiting for us when we got there like we were VIPs, we got wood delivered quickly, rented kayaks for a great price, and we chatted with office staff like we were old friends. The campground is small, friendly, and relaxing! The location is perfect! We will be back, even our kids said we needed to make this place a yearly visit!! Thank you for the memories!

I can't thank the owners and staff enough for first accommodating our change in camp sites (helping us move) and secondly, for coming to our rescue ,fixing our canopy supports. Owner Jeff took the time out of his busy day to fix and repair our AS canopy. He made it look easy, but we know it wasn't an easy fix and if it wasn't for his generosity knowledge, strength and hard work we would have had travel back home with the canopy not securely set. The staff and owners are warm and welcoming and made our stay memorable. We will be back and highly recommend Wispering Surf campground.

I loved this campground! Stayed here for 7 days and loved every minute of it. Yes it is "tight" in some spaces but their service and the friendliness of other campers made up for it. Our specific site was not as tight as others so I can't really comment too much on it but it is what it is. Bass lake beach was nice, a short drive or less than a mile walk to the public beach on lake Michigan was well worth it. Bathrooms were clean. Nice playground for the kids and tons of shady tree cover. It's a nice quiet and peaceful campground, we felt very safe here and would recommend it to anyone considering. We will definitely try and return next time we're up that way.

Lovely family campground. There are family summer activities on Saturdays at the Lodge, walking distance to Lake Bass, and a short bike ride/walk to Lake Michigan beach. Dog park area. Beautiful trees surround the campground. The owners Lisa and Jeff as well as the camp hosts Lisa and Jeff are wonderful hosts.
