Camping

Campers may book for only two weeks at a time with a one week break in between stays.

Sandy Pines has 59 campsites, 10 rustic cabins, and 5 trailers available to rent.  Sandy Pines also rents out golf carts, bikes, kayaks, paddleboards, rowboats, and a blackstone griddle and 2 burner propane grill.

Sandy Pines has 12 seasonal sites.  Every year the current seasonal members have the first right to stay for another year, so we average 4 sites that are actually available every year.

By only entering one rental at a time this will help ensure that Sandy Pines knows who is staying at each actual rental.  This helps with rental accountability and speeds up the line at the Public Safety gate, as we try not to have lines back up onto the main road.  When each camper knows the name the reservation is under and which rental they are staying at, it speeds up the process significantly.  Campers use our white kiosk box to enter their name at check-in, and then a QR code will print out for the camper serving as their ticket to enter and re-enter the park during their stay.

If the Camping office is closed, campers may extend their stay by starting a new reservation on sandypines.com.  A two night minimum is required and must be booked, however you may email camping@sandypines.com to have one night refunded if you wish to only stay one more night.

Campers may come into the Public Safety office or call 616-896-9006 to preregister their guest. This must be done PRIOR to the guest’s arrival. The cost is $20 per car for the duration of the guest’s visit. Payment can be made in person by the camper or their guest

Campers are only allowed to bring in their own vehicle(s) they arrive in and the camper unit they are staying in.  However, our rental office has golf carts, bikes, kayaks, paddleboards, and rowboats to rent.

The maximum allowed at a campsite is eight people.

Cabins and trailers are allowed one tent.  Campsites with a camping unit with wheels are allowed one tent.  Campers only pitching tents at a campsite are allowed two tents.

Approximately six people fit in a cabin or trailer.

 Sandy Pines can only accept campers at our check in time of 3:00, and campers must exit the park by 12:00 on their day of departure.  This prevents overcrowding and allows for cleaning, mowing, and any other maintenance to be completed for the next camper.

Yes, all bookings must be paid in full at time of booking.
