We love camping here! The sites are always clean and well prepared for setting up right away. While the other sites are somewhat close by, they are far enough apart that we never hear other conversations at night. There are no spots with water or electric, but each circle of sites has a restroom building with private stalls and showers, as well as dishwashing stations, so cleaning up is easy :). The Lake Michigan beach is a short drive away, as well as numerous hiking trails.

We've been camping at Dunewood for 8 years! We pick the same site every year because we know it will be great! We feel safe, the facilities are very clean, and the campground's layout is perfect! We also love having the general store and restaurant within walking distance.

The campsite was clean and fit the description. The campground was quiet and calm (except for traffic and train, of course!). Overall, it was very pleasant. Restrooms were clean. (More feedback in the next section)
Two somewhat unfortunate things--my picnic table was moved far to the side right near the next camper's picnic table. It was too heavy for me to move away for more privacy. Someone likely two sites down (in number) had literal floodlights shining on their complex of tables where they were working until 11 pm. It was like a TV studio in brightness. This illuminated my campsite, when I was looking to enjoy the darkness. I'd call it light pollution. Host said there is no rule against too much light. I think there should be. The idea of "camping" seems to be disappearing, in favor of bringing complete RV homes with outdoor lighting, inside air conditioners, etc. Already electrification has been installed most places. Parks are giving in to the people who fear nature, simplicity, and even short-term departure from everyday life and conveniences. There's little "camping" left. This is quite a loss. I know the pandemic brought people into the RV world, but it's time to teach camping and outdoor skills again, and to give some priority to actual campers who want to see the night sky and hear animal sounds at night. I also suggest incorporating alternatives to individual campfires, like community campfire circles, and the use of light-colored vigil candles on the table, which in a small group make a lovely and even romantic light at night. We've got to prepare people for the climate changes that are here and are looming.

Enjoyed Kemil beach and the Marsh and Cowles Bog trail. The campground staff was friendly and helpful.

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.
