The Best Camping Near Mears, Michigan

Down to earth, friendly, relaxed atmosphere. Not as many bells and whistles as some of the other Jellystones, but there's plenty to do nearby, as in nearly next door. There are kid activities just about every half hour. The pool is clean and bathrooms are dry and well maintained. Sites are pleasant and shady. Lots of people come to the area for dune riding and will stay here for that reason. Mac Woods Dune Rides nearby should not be missed. But as for the campground, as a single parent of littles, I've always found it to have just the right amount of support. Including hot coffee in the morning.

Family friendly, reliable, relaxing

Right in the heart of Silver Lake, this campground is the walking distance or a short drive to shopping, food and fun!  the campground itself has a pool and game room for the the family. A popular “duners” destination, the campground was a bit crowded and busy if you’re looking for a quiet getaway. 

Near Everything 

We didn’t have a second vehicle so was trapped at the resort and close surrounding shops. The best thing about this park is the proximity to Silver Lake.  Not many amenities available here and you need to book way in advanced as Silver Lake is a very desirable destination for dune atv-ing. 

Good overall park

We loved Jellystone at silver lake!! The campground is next to a activity center with go karts a zip line a small coaster, bumper boats and mini golf!! The campground itself had a playground for the kids and a decent sized pool with a kiddie pool next to it!! The campground does fun activities with the kids, we made tie dye shirts at one of their activity nights!! Silver Lake has shops and good restaurants and playing on the sand dunes was a blast!!!

Great campground for a family vacation 

We have camped here every year for the past 8 years, absolutely love yogi. We stay upfront close to the ranger station &amp; bathroom usually. We have between 20/30 family members that camp as well &amp; we have always had a pleasant experience, although I am not fond of the price hike &amp; new "save ur spot for $50" thats just ridiculous!.

8 years camping 

The place is packed. It’s fine overall, and far from a favorite. We would stay here again if we had to, but I don’t think it would be our first choice. The WiFi and even our cell connection has been horrible because the towers are overloaded. It’s probably a great place for most people, but not really our speed. Lots of loud trucks flying “Let’s go Brandon”, Trump 2024, and blacked out American flags. Which…whatever… I’d rather stay somewhere that’s a little more on the peaceful side.

Not like other Jellystones

This is its last year being yogi bear campground, starting in 2023 it will be  dunetown. They had a lot of activities scheduled and my children had a blast. Crafts, hay rides, outdoor movies, and character meet and greets we’re all going on during the weekend. They are also walking distance from craig’s cruisers which had a lot to do. You can easily stay busy with the activities around and inside the campground. 

Family destination 

This place has everything you need and nothing you don’t. It is busy with dune buggies and the like but it is still quiet at the same time, you have to be in the campground by 11pm and in your camper by 1am so there aren’t idiots driving in and out and making noise all night. Honestly the evening/night time vibe was very chill, especially when you factor in how busy it is. 

Great park, quiet at night!

Peggy are host was awesome . It's really clean and a beautiful place and close to the Dunes .
