    Natural Features and SceneryJust steps over the dune, a pristine stretch of sandy Lake Michigan shoreline awaits your discovery. The beach offers postcard-perfect views of the historic Holland Harbor lighthouse standing sentinel at the pier, while the surrounding dune ecosystem creates a unique coastal landscape. When you're ready to explore beyond the beach, paved multi-use paths wind through the dunes and connect to peaceful nature trails that meander through diverse vegetation, offering quiet retreats from the waterfront energy.

    Good to know

    Common complaintsMany reviewers describe the campground as very paved with minimal privacy ('like camping in a Walmart parking lot' per one review), some sites are very tight with limited room for awnings, and busy summer traffic results in long entrance/check‑in lines.
