Beutiful location for beach lovers.

The campground is located next the beach near the town of Pentwater. The location is beautiful and sandy with easy access from the paved road. They have internet but quite slowly due to the fact that many are connected. The spaces are a bit tight and it is not very easy to back up from the narrow alleys if you have a big rig. All campsites are equipped with electricity only. Bathrooms and showers are located in the buildings in several places. The one on the beach is directly from the campground.

Great beach

Love the setting practically on the beach. Fantastic public restrooms and showers that didn't run out of hot water.

Fall camping

Mears lake campground is located right on the beach of Lake Michigan. There are about 5 spots that have water views and the rest are sand dunes, to the lake but an easy climb.

All sites have a bonfire pit and picnic table

Sites are very tight! In the summer months it’s hard to even drive down the street. The fall is a little calmer, campsites are a little more spread out but the cement pads are very small.

Bath house on street two ( nice and clean) Bath house near the water closed in fall

Fire wood is sold up near the beach stands $6 bundle ( cash or Venmo)

The thing we love most about this campground is the easy walk into Pentwater. Brown bear is a good bar with good food.
