Campground review

The sites are randomly laid out and on top of each other. The bathhouse looked bad. You could hike the wooden walkway trails over the dunes easily. Pay to park public beach was very close.the beach area was very nice. Campground was not.

Sand and more sand

Site was OK, but on a slope. Could not level out car because of sand. The tire just dug in. Some sites are much better than others. Be sure to look first.

One of the best beaches in southern Michigan

The campsite is pretty basic, but has electricity and water. It’s just quite dusty and there is zero privacy.

But it’s right next to Weko beach. And the best thing is that just south of Weko, there is miles of beach that belongs to the dunes state park and dogs are allowed. You can walk for miles and there were very few people there when we visited. We really loved it.

Lovely wooded campground so close to the beach

We lucked into a night at this gorgeous campground. Yes, the spots are small and yes there’s lots of seasonal campers, but everyone is super friendly and you can’t get closer to this gorgeous beach. The entire campground is wooded with huge trees, which we loved. The best part, though, was having the beach 2 min from our doorstep. Can’t beat it!

Tiny tiny sites, dirty bathrooms

We did NOT have the best time at Weko Beach Campground. We stayed in site 45. The sites in this loop are so so tiny you’re basically on top of your neighbors. We have a van which made it easier but I can’t imagine setting up a tent and such in the site we had. Bathrooms were port o potties only and half of them didn’t even have toilet paper. No showers in the loop we stayed in and poison ivy was everywhere. Maybe the other loops are better but I’m not sure we’ll be back to stay here…

Great little campground

Couple minute walk to the beautiful Lake Michigan beach. Waist deep most areas, waves can get big tho. The campgrounds beach is NOT pet friendly, but there is a flat boardwalk that takes you to a pet friendly area of beach of neighboring Warren dunes state park. Clean easy to locate water/trash/office areas. Friendly staff. They check the loops frequently and keep things tidy. Sandy but drivable roads(be careful in a washout). Flat nice sized lots. Clean bathroom/shower house! (Males and females share showers, could be concerning during busy season). Peaceful and quiet. Loved everything about our trip. (Be warned the camping lots are sand too, you will have sand everywhere! But its worth it!)

Beach campground

Really nice campground with a few cabins on Lake Michigan. Campsites are about 1/2 mile walk or less to the beach. Nice facilities, and overall kept up very well. Weko Beach is an awesome beach, and we frequent there. There aren’t any hiking trails or anything like that, but Warren Dunes, Grand Mere, and various other nature preserves and bike trails are all within striking distance. We spent our Halloween there last year; best Halloween ever!

Great camp ground just a stones throw away from Lake Michigan. Sites are on the smaller side but we’re tent campers so it worked for us! Nice bathroom facilities. Being so close to the beach is a huge reason to visit!

Decent spot and walking distance to the beach.

Our site was in the RV section next to the beach. The sites were open and dirt/sand--ours was up on a bit of a hill. Worked great for exploring the area. Walking distance to Weko Beach with walking access to beach at Warren Dunes SP (which is dog friendly).

Competitive pricing and great views

This place was amazing. Right on the beach and close to town for bars and restaurants. My only complaint is that I wish the full hookup sites had pavement or a concrete pad....or at least a machine to come by and flatten out the sand. There were huge divets in our site, and it was on an incline. Which wouldn't be a big deal except it was INCREDIBLY difficult to back our camper into the spot.

really, 3.5 stars

the beach is cool! you can drive right up! but to park in the daytime is $10, on top of the campground fee. i was prepared to pay it, though, because my hip was sore and walking from the campground was out of the question.

campground sites can be on top of one another. shrill yip dogs of the campground host in the first loop. asked to move and they gave me something in the higher loop, a bit closer to the beach. i was pretty happy there.

drinking/party feel with bars and breweries everwhere.

if i were to visit the area again, i’d reserve ahead at indiana dunes national park cg instead. nature is why i camp.

So close to the beach

This was a prime location. Super close to the beach, which was nice during the 90° heat. It was also a quick drive to the nearby wineries. The beach was very sandy and large. Ok bathrooms. Smaller spots for the tent, but we made do.

Soft, sandy spots with beautiful beach access

You can’t get closer to the beach than at these beach access campsites. Nightly sunsets here will knock your sandals off. A majority of the RV sites here are occupied by locals who buy out the spot for the season and come in to enjoy it on the weekends.

PROS:

The beach: Weko is a lovely local beach. Sand is soft and the water is shallow far out into the surf. A food and sundries shop is on premise. SUP and kayak rentals are also on the beach.

Bridgman: the town of Bridgman is super cute. Three local breweries are in town, along with a wine tasting room and local food restaurants.

CONS:

The bathrooms: Weko Beach campground bathrooms leave much to be desired. They are co-Ed and each shower stall has a locking door. Bathrooms are old, but cleaned daily. Lack of airflow has lead to mold and mildew growth.

Sandy campsite: this campground is not paved since it is in and amongst the dunes. Therefor, the soil is sandy and often soft. We got our airstream stuck using our 2 wheel drive truck and needed the help of a 4x4 to get us out. Some sites are flat while others are on a hill.

OTHER:

There are 2 RV loops, and one primitive loop. Primitive sites have porta -Johns.

During the summer there are live music concerts out on the beach.

You can grab the campground WiFi only if you’re standing outside the office.

Such a great experience

Had a wonderful trip here. Close to the lake with a beach that was not very crowded and enjoyed watching the sunset. I stayed in a cabin here that was cozy and comfortable. Loved that the small store and bathrooms were close and that it was a smaller campground

This is my yearly spot. Cannot say enough good things about WB. It’s right on the shores of Lake Michigan. The beach, sand dunes, local wineries are all right there. Some sites have water. All have electric. The downside is there is no sewer hookups.
