We love Blue Lake Biergarten! Our family joined two other families for a fall camping weekend, and had a lovely time. The camping areas are so spacious we all had plenty of room. The grates on the fire pits were perfect for cooking our meals, and the kids had a blast playing capture the flag and collecting dead sticks for campfires. Our weekend lined up with a tasting event from Long Road Distilling, which was a fun treat when we visited the biergarten. We're already looking forward to the next time we go!

Pretty cool spot. My daughter and I set up a tent at the edge of the field and did some exploring in the woods. We enjoyed ourselves.

My son and I stayed for a weekend to go fishing and get away from the busy city life. We absolutely loved our stay, were so impressed with the cleanliness of the place, the items available for our use, and the breathtaking views. We will definitely be back!

We loved staying here! Sites are private and spacious. Porta potties are clean. Water available and drinkable. Ice and firewood available onsite. Biergarten and food truck were both great. Staff was so friendly and went above and beyond to make sure we were taken care of and had good recommendations for the area. Would definitely stay here again!

What a fun place to camp! The included bundle of wood on my first night was a lovely surprise, and the little touches like wildflowers, the lighted port-o-let and a bucket of water for extinguishing the campfire were appreciated. This is all before we get to the quaint Biergarten with a food truck, a small assortment of mixed drinks and beers from local breweries who use hops grown on the farm. I hiked Owasippe Scout Reservation’s trails, which were nearby, and visited Lake Michigan. Great visit!

The main road in (12 Mile Road) was way more rugged than I had expected. That being said, the site was very remote and extremely peaceful. You can probably make it in (as others suggested, come in from the west off Hemlock) with 2WD, but I was glad I had 4WD for peace of mind.
Also, the site it beautiful! The electric hookup was super convenient. The shower appeared to be hooked directly to the well water line. However, there was a heater there ready to be installed. We used my solar shower which was decently warm.
There are plenty of trails on site and my dog had a blast being off leash the entire week. We did venture into Hungerford for a much longer hike. There was a super nice couple there our first night, but we had the place to ourselves the rest of the week. What a gem of a site. Would love to have a group camp there in the future.

The space was fantastic and having the Biergarten nearby was an added bonus. The space was well kept and had a dedicated trash can for each site. A lot of care went into the area with premium fire pits with grill grates, upgraded portable bathroom, and even a native plant garden on the path to the Biergarten (which also had a great selection and roaring campfire). Staff were the pinnacle of hospitality and a highlight of our weekend! We will absolutely be visiting again!!

The sites were private, level, and well maintained. The beer garden had good food and a great selection of beer. Overall the experience was like a very well executed back yard cookout. I would highly recommend especially if you want to take advantage of the food truck and beer garden.

Super awesome remote camping space. It’s hard to find anything this remote with water and power. Super thrilled and would go back.

We had an amazing time at sandy fern. The hosts were amazing and we loved all of the activities on sight. There is much to see and do around the area, and everything was perfect. Thank you Charles and Sara!

I loved staying here! The Biergarten is beautiful, and the land out back even more so. Tent camping was easy, and I appreciated the plentiful firewood available at the site. The sky was beautiful from this site, and the location is great - can’t beat a close drive to the beach.
The employees (shout out to Mike) were super helpful with our questions about kayak rentals and general goings-on around the campsite. I would recommend this to anyone looking at staying here.

Nice vibe at Biergarten! Campsite was private, tucked away in the trees. Porti potty was clean and had a foot pump powered sink which was a small unexpected perk. Staff were super friendly.

We loved camping at Sandy Fern. It was very private at quiet. We loved it because it was like boondocking, but with full hookups! The site is huge and is a pull through, so no issue getting into it. They also have a wonderful fire pit and horse shoes. We had a great time and highly recommend if you like piece and quiet.

I stayed one night in my camper van, a 2wd Ram ProMaster 3500. Definitely approach from the west (from Hemlock), not from the east as there's a long, sandy ascent that really requires 4wd this way; my van didn't have a prayer of making it, and it's a long way to back out but there's no choice 'cause there's no way to turn around. Come from the west and you're fine!
The site is really great. I was the only inhabitant, but there are multiple electric hookups all around the big fire ring. Pretty cool to have electric way out in the woods...that had to be a major project getting wires run. There's a very clean porta john on site too. For my night here, I had total privacy, excellent stars, and quiet - definitely will return.

Overall, I would recommend this site! Firewood (as well as drinks and food) are available for purchase at the biergarten and the staff (shoutout to mike!) was friendly. The site was fairly private, and the porta-potty was clean.
Unfortunately, we had the most insane rainstorm while at this campsite, and were forced to shelter in our car from lightning, but it was no fault of the hosts.

Great, quiet spot with a private setup. Surprisingly, no bugs even with its close proximity to the woods. Will definitely be back!
