Love the secluded pad for tent off of the paved area. Clean bathrooms and good water pressure. Filtered water refill stations were convenient

We booked site 62. Took the South Shore train from Chicago to Dunewood cg, jumping off the Beverly Shores stop where we then walked about 0.5 miles to the site with our gear. Spacious with all the amenities you need - nearby toilets, wash basin, spigot and even a water bottle refill station! There is a camp store / wine and spirits store across the main street next to the train stop. Very convenient in case you forget anything. They even carry fuel and do bike rentals. A couple of food options within walking distance as well but they have strange hours (maybe because it wasn’t peak season yet?)

Note it is a hike down from the parking lot so be prepared to do a couple of trips if you’re car camping. Camp hosts are great and helpful. A bit noisy from the nearby trains but nothing a few ear plugs can’t help with. Loved our stay

The campground was quiet and our spaces had level spots. The bathrooms and showers were both nice and the host was friendly and helpful. We also met the gentleman cleaning up the sites and he was friendly and informative. We would go back again for sure.

Policies & Rules

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.

  • All visitors must have a valid entrance pass, which can be purchased on arrival or in advance.
