The sites are small and flat without any good options for hammocks, so I do not recommend if youre trying to hammock camp. The mosquitos were so bad even with bug spray that we ended up leaving and not actually staying the night.

Beautiful campground, with really friendly volunteer host. The dump station is well designed such that the RV slopes a bit toward, making it possible to thoroughly drain and rinse the tanks. Only had time for an overnight, but will come back on a future trip through the area.Had considered the nearby state park, but while the campsite rate was reasonable, an additional park visitor pass requirement made it way too expensive for an overnight stop. Glad to have a federal campground to use!

This is one of my family's favorite campsite. It is close to Chicago. Well kept and clean. Location is amazing, and the sites are more private.

Great campground & friendly staff! Lady at check in was very helpful and answered all of our questions. The bathroom & water stations were clean and easily accessible. Camping spots were large and well laid out, and evenly distributed which helped to keep noise levels appropriate. Fire pit was great for cooking on or sitting around.

What made it an excellent experience: large, flat, clean campsite with lots of trees for privacy; the fire pit and grill in great shape, as well as the picnic table; close to clean, warm restrooms; very respectful neighbors

Check in was easy and provided helpful info and a map. Campsite was clean and felt private/secluded from the other sites.

One of the nicest National Park campgrounds I have stayed at. Liked all the large trees around the sites and the toilet facilities were great as well.

The volunteers running the campground were extremely kind, helpful, and polite. The campground restrooms were kept very clean and the sites all well maintained. I look forward to staying here again in the future, had the best time.

What a lovely campground and barely an hour from my home in the south suburbs of Chicago. The large site (number 12) afforded privacy and the bathrooms were just a short stroll. I hiked up Broadway to the Lake Michigan shore, then went south to the Kemil Beach trail. Will definitely return!

The site was very lovely! felt decently private given the fact it is in a large campground. There was a cat that hung around and he was super friendly. Was pleasantly surprised that there were showers in the campground (I tend to assume national park campgrounds will not have showers as they usually don't). Overall enjoyed the campground and the campsite though the pond pictured was not there.

The campground was nice, but showing it's age. The site we were at (47) was not as level as it looked, though we were able to level when at the very top, near the posts. We really enjoyed the Beverly Shores, and reading about the houses. The beaches and visitor centers were great.

I just used PerfectCamp.com to book six consecutive August nights at the most popular campsite in one of the most popular campgrounds in Humboldt Redwoods State Park in California. That is not anything I could have accomplished anywhere else with the ease I did here! Thank you, PerfectCamp! I LOVE this site! You will find me on several other camping sites but the design, format, functionality, and personality of this the best. It’s fresh and clean.

Wow! Woke up this morning to a notification that a favorite had opened at Paulina, and when I went to check, it was there. This membership just paid for itself in the first 24 hours I owned it. Couldn't take the site it conflicted with a trip already set, but it truly was there. Thanks Tons.

@CarlaLThompson - Colorado

I just love this site and I tell everyone about it! It's so competitive to secure desired campsites and the alerts really help track when sites free up. The best part of this story is our alert notified a cancellation the next day!!!!!! Just incredible!!!
