Beautiful campground! Everything was extra clean at the bathhouse! Our site was beautiful and the other campsites are too close!

The campground was great! We had a lovely experience but the host was the snootiest woman I have ever met! I have never experienced a host that was so uppity. She came and told us we were Talking and laughing too loud, we were not yelling. It was 15 minutes past quiet time, ok so we quieted down. We didnt wake her up to ask the college kids to be quiet at 1 am. Check out is at noon. We planned on getting up at 8 to pack up. It started storming (hard!) at 8 and rained for over 2 hours. We started gathering our gear ASAP around 1015. We were two moms and 4 girls (8,10,10,&11) . We had two tents, and all the gear for 4 days of tent camping. We were in the car with seat belts on at 1245. Here she came with her golf cart and clip board. Are you staying another night? (Our spaces were empty and clean!) No we are all packed up thank you. Well check out was at noon. My friend said well it was storming. The lady said oh well that humph. Checkout was noon. I have never met a host so pretentious. I promise we were not rude, or super loud. We had 4 happy girls who were playing a card game. Then it rained soooooo hard! We tried to get out as fast as we could. The girls were helping. No one was trying to set up camp or waiting for us. How about some grace!? I would have paid a late fee. It wasnt coming out of her free campsite. She couldnt hear us inside her RV.

We arrived, set up our camper.
Both vehicles wouldn't fit in the space provided on the asphalt.
We changed the angle of parking and were able to have both vehicles on the pavement.
We love coming here, because it's close enough to our home, but it's a comfortable getaway.

I've been staying at Dunewood for about 10 years and it is as lovely as ever. The campground amenities, such as they are, are top notch. I appreciate the tree canopy and the diversity of the sites. Plan to walk or ride a bike to the beach, parking is scarce. There are lots of great hikes withing biking distance, or driving.

There is a camp store, liquor store, gas station w/food and a restaurant within easy walking distance as well. Sometimes there is a pizza truck (or two) that makes woodfired pizzas outside the campground entrance, I usually plan to eat a pizza for at least one meal. There's also a really great gift shop featuring local artisans and collectors as well as a new vintage store selling mens and womens clothing and housewares.

Pro tip, you can reach the campground on the south shore line train from Chicago - construction to finish this year sometime. I used to backpack camp there with my kiddo in the walk-in site and take the train from the city.

Campground was very nice. Sites were large and spacious. There was quite a bit of distance between each site. We were just passing through and did not have time to visit the beaches/trails while there. We visited in mid July and mid August. There was alot of mosquitoes on both of our nights at this location.
