I accidentally booked an RV site for a tent, which was pretty rough setting a tent up, but that was my mistake. Our issues were mainly with the fact that there was no grass or any space at all for the kids to play. It was all just dirt mixed with a very small amount of gravel. We were also sent on a wild goose chase looking for a park pass. We were told to go to the marathon across from the park and they only had the annual passes. The other places we were sent to had no idea what we were talking about. We were finally able to find one at the visitors center. We also saw a couple employees several times before we bought fire wood at a local gas station and after they saw we bought wood elsewhere they told us we could’ve gotten it from them for a lot cheaper. This was my first time camping solo with my kids, so it’s just growing pains. For future reference though these things may be helpful for other first time campers. Overall we had a good trip. The restrooms and shower rooms were great. The rangers were nice. It was extremely quiet and peaceful and we felt very safe. We won’t camp here again because of the dirt and lack of grass, but if that doesn’t bother you then it’s a great place to be!

The campground was very clean and peaceful, even though it was full; the bathroom and wash facilities were excellent! We enjoyed our stay and will definitely be back!

Lovely campground with well-spaced sites and clean bath house. Near (but not inside) Indiana Dunes National Park.

The Mather Loop is spacious and woodsy. No problems with camping. People in the park were respectful of guidelines. There is road noise because of proximity to paved roads and people who enjoy loud cars.

nice sized shaded lots. Bathrooms were clean.
Lots of road and train noise. It’s hard to get to the lake (heavy traffic).

Nice and quiet campground. My only complaint is that a few of the park employees tell you not to park on the grass at all, but the drive for the site is not long enough for the rv and your vehicle.

excellent campground. Seems we were there before the busy season started so it was minimally staffed and very quiet. Really enjoyed the stay.

Location was great. Facilities were nice. Plenty of shade. Not on the beach, so there was not sand everywhere. Just a few minutes to several of the beaches.

Arrival & departure

Check out time

12PM

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.
  • Early departures may or may not be refunded. At certain facilities, partial refunds may be possible if staff can mark the site available for other visitors. No refund is given for a night if the early departure is requested after that day's check-out time.
  • Security deposits are separate. Security deposits may be refunded to the original payment method if the facility is left in acceptable condition, as determined by the property.
