A wagon was helpful to haul everything to our beautiful walk-in site.

We first enjoyed the film at the visitors center to help us get oriented. We loved eating supper at the Dune Ridge bathrooms / picnic tables before watching the sunset with our toes in Lake Michigan on Kemal Beach. The Dunewood camp ground greeter was very helpful with check-in and orientation. We enjoyed the hot showers, restrooms and potable water.

This was our second time to stay at Dunewood Campground, and I'm sure we'll be back. There don't seem to be a lot of camping options around the south shore, and this campground is close enough to let us get to the beach, a Railcats ball game, etc., and the price is right! The campground itself is not spectacularly beautiful as the oak forest's ground cover just looks like a lot of weeds, including quite a bit of poison ivy. However there is a shower house in the Mather loop (not sure about the other loop) and staff are super friendly. You can buy firewood from a vendor just outside the campground, you may get rather large pieces of oak so I'd recommend bringing a splitting maul to get the pieces down to size for your campfire. (I could barely split some of the knotty pieces with my hatchet.) Also, get your reservations in early as this place fills up!

Campground itself was quiet. The surrounding neighborhood and communities had trains and highway nearby. Clean bathrooms and showers close to site. No electric or water at site
