I grew up near this park and visited a lot in the 70's. They have substantially improved the park. The beach is still just as beautiful. Sites are mostly grassy with some trees. Park was immaculate. No water at the site however there was a filling station in each camping loop.

Entrance to campground was overly complicated due to my truck GPS not allowing me to head straight into the park. The GPS has the main entrance road designated as NO TRUCKs to keep stray trucks out of the park. It was fine for big rigs. They just wanted to prevent SEMIs from entering the park and turning around. We camped at Indiana Dunes State Park in a Fifth Wheel.

2 Night Weekend stay in space 75. Electric only with H20 and Dump available. OTA, Cell and Satellite all worked just fine. Nice CG with easy walk to the Lake. There are quite a few nice trails of varying difficutly and an interesting Nature Center. There is also an informative Visitor Center for the National Lakeshore Park (which is adjacent to the State Park). A lot of families camp here on the weekend and the park was pretty much full. Rangers were very friendly and helpful. Nicely stocked camp store open until 8 pm We camped at Indiana Dunes State Park in a Motorhome.

This is a very nice park surrounded by the National Park. It's clean and well maintained. There's nice bike trails, a very nice nature center, and hiking trails. We loved being here in the Fall when it wasn't too crowded. We camped at Indiana Dunes State Park in a Motorhome.

The campground is kid and pet friendly, but it is surprising quite. There are many hiking trails but they are difficult to find due to a lack of markings.. A trip to the nature center is worthwhile. Although the sites are spacious, they offer very little privacy. The camping area is jammed during the summer, making reservations a must. We camped at Indiana Dunes State Park in a Fifth Wheel.

Our site #93 was spacious because there was not a site behind us or to the right side. Easy walk to the beach. Two young children with us could ride their bikes in our loop. We were there during the week arriving on a Monday with reservations made months in advance. The paved bike trail is along the entrance road. It ended for us when we reached the area outside the park where the train tracks were and then it was packed with loose deep gravel. We camped at Indiana Dunes State Park in a Motorhome.

This is a great state park. We have stayed here many times. Only thing you need to be aware of on Saturdays and Sundays in the summer, a very long line forms into the park with beachgoers. It can take an hour and half to get back to the campground if you go out. We camped at Indiana Dunes State Park in a Motorhome.

Nightly rate is for the site, there is a $5 transaction fee (online) and sales tax added to that. You will also pay $12 for your entrance pass, good for the whole stay. Still an excellent price compared to other state parks. We reserved an extra night at the campground office and it was only $24.61 total. This park is clean and tidy, paved sites with an extra bump-out section at the road edge for a vehicle. Lots of grass and trees, with reasonable spacing. Electric only, water spigots scattered around, water fill station (2 of them) for your rig is separate from the dump station. Makes that pretty convenient, so folks leaving and dumping don't have to wait for folks coming in and filling. Bathrooms and showers were as clean as they can be with messy people tracking sand in. The park was pretty full the whole time we were there. Verizon 1-2 bars, AT&T similar, both slowed to virtually nothing during the day. Got OTA stations fine. Close access to the beach by trail, several other trails for walking. We camped at Indiana Dunes State Park in a Fifth Wheel.

This is a nice state park campground with electric hookups only. There is an easy to access water fill station as you come in to the campground and a dump station as you leave. All the sites have a paved pad (though not necessarily level) with plenty of grass surrounding. There is clearly defined parking at each site as well. The campground itself is very clean and tidy. The bathrooms were OK, but we didn't use them much. They certainly were nothing to get excited about. Verizon cell signal was decent. I was able to get ABC clearly and a couple of other stations, though we really don't watch TV much. We camped at Indiana Dunes State Park in a Travel Trailer.

Good location to the dunes/lake shore. No water no sewer at sites; concrete pad but terribly out of level; grass way over due for mowing, kept the mosquitoes near. I mistakenly reserved the wrong dates as we are traveling cross country. The office manager would not even speak to me about simply switching dates. She told me to cancel and rebook, to which I fell prey to Indiana's punishing cancellation policy. The so-called Park Rangers do not work for the customers/tax payers in Indiana, they work for the state. Beware. We camped at Indiana Dunes State Park in a Motorhome.

Loved this park. The restrooms/showers were a bit dingy due to continual use throughout the summer; but they are clean. The camp store had ice cream which is always a bonus. Don't think any sites had sewer or water; but there is a dump station and several potable water spigots throughout the camp. We camped at Indiana Dunes State Park in a Motorhome.

Large campground that was completely filled. Best to make reservations several weeks in advance. Sites are concrete pads and are level. Many sites are close together. Our site (#69) offered more space and a little more privacy. Many good walking trails. Bathhouses were clean and the park is well maintained. We camped at Indiana Dunes State Park in a Fifth Wheel.
