I’ve been coming here for years and it never gets old. Going to the beach, hiking in the great swamp trail, taking in the architecture of the world’s fair homes and others… it’s an amazing getaway from city life. It’s always a pleasure to stay at Dunewood and it was a great choice for my first solo camping trip. For someone who doesn’t drive, it was really a godsend that I could get here and still find somewhere to camp via public transportation (South Shore Line). While one day is not enough to enjoy the Dunes, it was still a really unique experience to be able to do this without a car. I’m very happy I did this.

Dunewood was a wonderful campground, close to many fun things to do. The campground and bathrooms were very clean. Campsites were far enough apart to never feel a nuisance to any of our neighbors. Lots of mosquitoes, but what else should one expect near the lake in the summer. Altogether a great experience for our vacation.

Bring your noise-cancelling earbuds or ear plugs as the noise from the highways and constant trains is loud. Go buy the outdoor fogger insect spray at Home Depot and use a whole can of it at your campsite. Best $10 you’ll ever spend. The bugs are so bad here. The restroom and showers are nice, though. The sites are widely spaced out in the woods.

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.
