Hill & Hollow Campground & RV Park

Campsite is located 2 miles from downtown Pentwater, adorable small town on the water. Mears state park is 2 miles from the campground as well, Lake Michigan beaches. The playground on the beach is perfect for younger kids. There is a pavilion that serves hot food and ice cream ( hot food ends at 5pm/ ice cream till sunset.) Our kids loved walking in town and heading to the beach.

With that said, there is plenty to do at the campground . Outdoor pool, AJs (putt- putt golf, arcade, playground, go-karts) extra fee for AJs but reasonable priced, basketball court, volleyball court, small baseball diamond, tennis table, general store, shower house by pool ( very clean), private bonfire pits ( most campsites).

Seasonal’s were very friendly and helpful with local things to do. RV camp, Tent camp, or tent cabin.

Dump station available, firewood for sale, ice for sale, general store has several camping items, 15 minutes away is meijer in ludington. 2 minutes away gas station 2 minutes to Lake Michigan beaches 2 minutes to Pentwater downtown shopping

This campground used to be one of our favorites but it seems things have changed a little since the last time we’ve been here. It’s still a nice campground but there were a few things we weren’t happy with. Let’s start with the pros though. The bathrooms are very clean, they have a heated pool, there is an AJ’s family fun center out front, it’s close to downtown Pentwater and the beach, and they have some nice merchandise in the camp store. Now the cons. There were absolutely no activities going on at the campground and it was Memorial weekend. Having camp activities is standard at most campgrounds and something our kids enjoy. I was very surprised by this. Another con is some of the camp sites were very overgrown . The grass on our site was about a foot long. I don’t think it have been mowed all year. The WiFi in the park was also very spotty. And finally they are extremely strict on their visitor policy. We had some friends show up that were camping near by. They wanted to check out our campsite to see if it was someplace they’d like to camp down the road. The office wouldn’t let them in unless they paid $5 per person which would of cost them $30. I tried to explain to them they weren’t staying more than a few minutes but it didn’t matter they wouldn’t allow it. Overall we had a good weekend but not sure if we’ll be back any time soon.

After a few days here we decided that we would try to come back every year. Meticulously clean campground. Wonderful pool. Lots of shade. There is plenty of activities for young and old alike. Mini golf, go carts, nice bike riding. The spaces are big enough and level. Pull throughs as well back in. There are seasonal resident here that keep very nice spaces. Lots of trees and reasonable privacy. I witnessed a crew cleaning a vacated camp site before the camper got out of the gate, time and time again. The little town of Pentwater is close by. It is a neat place with shops and treats as well as art and a fancy grocery store. Plan to spend a day strolling the sidewalks there. All in all we are very impressed with this family operation. We truly look forward to coming back. Update: August 2019 We came back and still love it. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Friendly, clean, great pool, fun activities. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ Went back in August 2020, had the same fantastic experience. COVID safety was observed by both the staff and nearly all the other campers. We stayed out of town, only went to the local beach where again social distancing was good. There is plenty to do here so we didn’t miss going to town that much. We will be there again this August 2021, 4th year in what we plan to be many years.
