Yes, the huge musical fountain (originally built in 1962) and performs every night in summer and has for 54 years now. It's the same approximate size as a football field and the water goes up over 125 feet in the air and dances up and down and side to side with the music in fast with the music changing lights/colors. Very bright LED high intensity lights having 16+ million different colors capable. Sometimes there's a laser light show with it too. 32 very high quality 18" diameter specially designed speaker powered by 14 audio amplifiers providing over 35,000 watts of audio power. Many nights, the sound can be heard over 5 miles away.
Hundreds to thousands view it every night from the waterfront stadium or anywhere along the continuous waterfront park. It's that popular! The fountain is actually on the other side of the river on the side of a tall sand dune. Totally free It's in it's 54th year of nightly performances of all types of music and the fountain is constantly upgraded as higher technology develops. State of the art!
BTW, the Grand Haven State Park and campground has been somewhat the same layout since back in the 1920's when RV's were tiny and few around but the bathhouse is ultra modern with private door showers and family showers all around the exterior of the building. 50 amp electric today and other modern features in the CG. Lake Michigan shoreline land goes for over $10,000 a front foot of water frontage if you want to purchase some. That is if you can find some for sale! As a RV'er, you get to actually live on this ultra expensive property with services/feature included for about $30/day and with NO property taxes and NO maintenance ever! Pretty darn cheap!
