Hi, we're Jeff and Matt. Thanks for visiting. We're two locals who have kept this camera pointed at Pere Marquette Beach for more than ten years, and the best part has always been knowing how many of you check it before heading out.
Here's the honest picture of what keeps it live: the camera itself (and replacing it when the lake wins), a server that re-streams it to everyone at once, the bandwidth that takes, and the weather data feeds. Ads used to cover that; they don't anymore. 40 members at $5 a month is $2,400 a year, and that covers the 2027 season. We'd love to get there by December 31. Once we do, every ask on this page comes down. Either way, thank you for watching.
— Jeff & Matt
