Walk in site 56 was awesome! Clear of foliage, tons of space for tents, lots of hammock trees, VERY private and close to parking lot. Mosquitos were INSANE - highly recommend bringing a thermacell repellent device, it was very effective. Close drive to beach and some corner shops right nearby

We enjoy this campground. Lots of trees so mostly shady. Sites are nice and spacious. Asphalt pads. Bathrooms and showers are relatively clean. Even have a wash station for dishes. Close to some trails and beaches on the west side of the park. We were warned about racoon activity.

Dunewood is a good location to enjoy all of the Dunes area. I like the campsites, private and woodsy.

Great site (Mather, 20), and a great campground overall! The sites and bathrooms are always very clean here, & most sites have really good privacy. There are lots of trees and birds (the crows!!) to feel well and truly outdoors.

The walk in campsite was perfect for our family of 5. My kids loved exploring the campground
The showers and bathrooms were very clean,and the shower was hot.
The only negative I had was the campsite behind us was very loud till 1am. Thankfully it did not disturb my kids sleep, but my husband and I didnt sleep.

The campground is terrific! The sites are private and tucked in the woods. The bath house was clean and the showers were warm. Close proximity to national & state park amenities. Campground host was friendly and helpful. I would definitely stay again!

Cancellation policy

  • Reservation fees are non-refundable. For campsites, cabins, lookouts, yurts, group sites, and similar stays, we charge a reservation service fee of $8.
  • Standard cancellations usually have a $10 cancellation fee. Customers can generally cancel before the check-in date online.
  • Late cancellation rules differ by stay type.
    • Individual campsites: cancelling after 12:00am local time the day before arrival usually means a $10 cancellation fee plus forfeiting the first night's fee.
    • Cabins, lookouts, and yurts: cancelling less than 14 days before arrival usually means a $10 cancellation fee plus forfeiting the first night's fee.
    • One-night reservations: a late cancellation usually forfeits the full amount paid, up to the total original reservation cost.
  • Modifications are allowed before the cut-off window, but fees depend on the change. Changing to dates completely outside the original reservation dates may trigger a $10 change fee. Extending or shortening a stay that still includes original dates usually has no change fee, though refunds may depend on timing and facility rules. Switching to the same type of campsite for the same dates usually has no change fee, but price differences are charged or refunded.
