I made my initial reservation online, which was easy.
Upon check in at the Indiana Dunes I met with the ranger at the gate ( forgot her name ) but she was very informative and helpful.
I would have liked to have said goodbye at checkout but I left too early.
Thanks again for all you do.
Best,
Harry and Jean Brock

Very clean and quiet campground. There is some road noise which is inherent from the park location near civilization but the camping experience was still very nice. Fully in the trees, nice tent pads, table and fire pit, showers and running water with filtered bottler fillers. Well taken care of and close access to the spectacular dunes. There is even some hiking trail that leads from the campground. As long as you approach this park as a place to see a unique and special ecosystem and not a middle of nowhere experience, you won't be disappointing.

Reception at Dunewood was a 10+, very professional. Stayed in site 41 Sept 25. Very shaded so I charged Solar batteries the day before to max. Stayed 3 days. Parked a 24 ‘ trailer easily. Space was groomed, very spacious and near showers. Shower and bathroom were always clean. Have water tank full before entering park. Water available but no hose connection. Must fill container. Dump was very well designed and easy to use. Non potable water at dump. Senior discount honored on advance Internet reservation.
Second time to park. Visitors center and quantity of activities close to nature is a 10!
Did Parks on The Air ( POTA) with ham radio from NP and State Park with Ham Radio in my truck with no problem.
Indiana Dunes is a unique gem in the NP system .

Great spot! Not too close to other campsites and easy to park and walk to the site and the bathrooms. Quiet at night, good fire pit, decently clean bathrooms. Close to the beach and easy to get from place to place.

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.
