We also just got back from PL. We were in site #685, it up in the north end of the campground. It's quieter up on that end than down were Dodge Guy was. And we were well off the front road also. But there is something for everyone there, if you don’t have fun it’s your fault.

Broadway at the beach is nothing but a corporate sanitized mall.

And look at the same "stuff" we saw at Bare Foot Landing two days before.

Yes, I should`ve stated that I was pretty much in the middle of the ocean front sites. so that is where all the action is. at the ends is much calmer, and the farther back you go (towards the front) it is much more relaxed.

On Broadway at the Beach, yes it is a mall and much cleaner and more appealing to families. I was very disappointed on the Downtown area. I was expecting a boardwalk like I remember walking on as a kid in New Jersey. all we got was a 3 foot wide deck to walk on between hotels on the beach! and then you have all the rejects working their little sidewalk shops! let alone the questionable people walking around!

We have the Wisconsin Dells which is similar to MB. I thought that was touristy. No where near as bad as MB and way cleaner too! Don`t get me wrong we enjoyed MB, but we felt much better about staying out on the 17 bypass. it just felt like a safer area to be in. and you don`t need to pay to park either!
