Grand Haven, MI in early September

We are thinking of doing a long weekend trip (3 nights)in September with our DD, DS and his GF, all mid 20's. We have never been to MI and thought Grand Haven sounded interesting. Considering PJ Hoffmaster SP as it is wooded instead of the parking lot campground on the beach. Do people swim that late in the season? Is this campground sheltered from the wind off of the lake? Is the creek within sight of some of the camp sites? Any favorite sites? Any other info or insight you have would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

It is a very nice campground. They have several loops although they may not all be open during the week. All of them are wooded, either with hardwoods or pine trees. I vaguely recall some might have a view of the creek but it's not much of a creek. I wouldn't base my decision on that. It is sheltered from the wind as the lake is on the other side of the dunes. Miles of beach to hike. As far as water temperature, who knows. Much depends on the wind direction during the time you're there.
