We stayed for two nights and had a great experience.  Campsites had decent privacy and  even on a Friday night, quiet hours were respected.  We were on a wheelchair accessible site which was the only one available, so there was more pavement than the other sites.

There was a dishwashing sink which is always handy.  The bathrooms and showers were very clean, and the free showers were the best we've experienced in a campground with plenty of hot water, good water pressure, plenty of hooks and a bench. 

Some noise from the highway and the trains, but I like trains so it was fine.  We wouldn't hesitate to stay here again.

Very well maintained sites. Typical National Park standards. Gracious camp host. Beautiful National Park.

Compared to the other popular campground in the state park this is way less crowded. There’s tons of trails to do along the lakeshore and none are really far from one another. I grew up in NWI so I didn’t camp in Indiana often but I did here and loved it! There are a bunch of raccoons that can come steal food so beware of that! Overall nice though!

Very nice wooded campground. Not too crowded. My site was huge! Nice private showers too!

Very pleasant and enjoyed myself camp spaces are plenty of room and lots of stuff to do

Lake Michigan is gorgeous, next to casino an outlet malls, clean place.

We arrived late and were greeted by staff a member at our site. Very helpful and friendly. I’d totally stay here again.

Clean quiet 25 bucks

We spent one night at Indians Dunes National Park and we love this campground. Lots of room for our 15’ Ford F-150 and 19’4” travel trailer. Our campsite was Dunewood Campground, Mather loop, site #1.

A fine campground, but you can hear the highway and commuter trains pass by regularly. Private property abuts the campground. Good in a pinch, but the nearby state park campground might be a better option. Also, reservations are required (we pulled in at 10:45, not knowing and managed to grab a spot).

Site 67 is one of the walk in sites, but it was very private. Only one other site was visible, so we set up our tents between us and felt like the only people there. It was great. The walk in distance wasn't bad at all. The bathroom facilities were very clean. The sky was beautiful, and the beach was only a 12 minute drive away. We had a great time!

Bathroom facilities were good. Reasonably clean and well maintained. The hike to the beach was fun and not far at all. The dogs loved it. Camp sites are decent sized.

Nice spot, basic but clean. The Pin Oak trees were abundant for hammocks but a little worrisome with the wind advisory. Train tracks are quite close so light sleepers may be woken by the sound, Beverly Shores train depot very convenient if coming or going to Chicago. A quick bike ride to the the beach and century of progress houses. Lovely sunset on the beach and close enough to make it back to the campground without it too dark via bike. Very convenient stores within walking distance across the road with just about anything you could need if you forget something. Bathrooms were decent, showers and flushable toilets were close by site 57. ADA accessible spots available. Reservations are required this year not FCFS as previous years.

You will be amazed with the beauty of this park. Whether you are seeking family time or solitude, it won’t disappoint.

Indiana Dunes National Park hugs 15 miles of the southern shore of Lake Michigan and has much to offer. Whether you enjoy scouting for rare species of birds or flying kites on the sandy beach, the national park's 15,000 acres will continually enchant you. Hikers will enjoy 50 miles of trails over rugged dunes, mysterious wetlands, sunny prairies, meandering rivers and peaceful forests.

Beautiful, well spaced campgrounds that are flat and relatively secluded.

Good location, about 1.5 miles from the beach. The walk is not very shaded though so it does get hot.

Campsites we’re very clean and well-maintained.

My only complaint was that we could hear a train pass by a few times throughout the night. It wasn’t very loud but it did take away from the outdoor experience a bit.

Clean ,primitive. Well water, showers

Beutiful

OK, I can deal with minimal privacy, but I’m a hiker and I got seriously lost on the woods trails due to very poor sinage. I was pretty furious when I finally stumbled out of the woods and met up with a couple of maintenance men who heard me lecture loud and clear on the importance of sinage. Be very careful hiking at this place. There’s a great well defined walk to the beach. It included a boardwalk that skirts a wetland restoration project that is impressive.

We stayed here in July 2020. Too bad they have no electricity because it was in the 80s and 90s so it would have been nice to have the AC. We made do with our ceiling exhaust fan. Showers were busy and, unsurprisingly,  not cleaned in between users.

We stayed 3 nights and enjoyed having a site within the park so the beaches and trails were convenient. As it was during the pandemic, we socially distanced, but exchanged pleasantries with masked visitors and staff. Even on hiking trails, people would flip on their masks, as did we, when passing other hikers.

We didn't go to the beach much as people we not making or social distancing. But there are many historical sites and trails so we had plenty to do. Didn't check out everything that sounded interesting . Want to go back some day!

Great water pressure. Hot enough water. Heated bathroom! Clean bathrooms.

Been here several times and still haven't see it all.   National Parks Campground a bike ride away from the beach.  At the intersection of the road to the campground and State Route 12 there is a restaurant, camp store, gas station and a church.  The campground does not have water or electric at sites.  There are water pumps near the dumpsters through out the campgrounds.  The sites are a good space apart.  In summer the leaves on the trees make the sites private.   In the fall the park is less crowded.  The Indiana Dunes are  very large.  There are bike routes in the area and stopping points to look at birds and marsh lands.   In 2019 the rangers had a number of programs and shuttle bus between the campground and the beach and learning center.   None of  these were available in 2020 as a result of COVID.

The campground itself is very well maintained, beautiful, quiet and private. Plenty of space in between each site, and the campground host was the best! He was consistently making rounds and was eager to share tips on where to explore. A bit far from the beach, but a super quick drive to spend the day at the lake. This was actually preferable, as the campground was a nice escape from the crowds at the beach/dunes. Goblin and the Grocer is a must if you don’t feel like cooking after a long day at the dunes, and is only a few minutes walk from the campground!

Location is fantastic for exploring the area. From campground you can walk (very close!)  to the small Village of Beverly Shores which has a cool restaurant (Goblin and the Grocer) with outdoor dining and take out, higher end liquor store, gas station, ice cream, firewood, beach supplies and food trucks. Plus, even the commuter train to Chicago stops here. Close to several beaches, tons of hiking, dunes to climb and cute towns to explore.

The sites are level, large and shaded. Most appeared to have room for a tent. No hookups in the national park but water and a dump station are available. I would certainly stay there again.

This is a great campground. It was clean, the sites are up kept well. The site footprints are also large. We could have easily fit 3, 2-4 person tents.  The hike in campsites aren’t close to each other. There weren’t a lot of rowdy people when we went there. Also, it is a mile walk to the beach from the campground, so you don’t have to hunt for a parking spot. There is also a gas station, restaurant, and liquor store close to the campground in case you need anything. You could walk there as well. When we were there, there was a food truck that was there making pizza! Smelled delicious!

Great campground! Not right at the dunes but a great central location to each beach location. Each site has fire ring and grill grate, picnic tables, and are very spacious. The bath house is adequate with showers and flush toilets. There are a couple of stores/restaurants near the camp ground entrance in case you forgot something or just don’t feel like cooking a meal.

Amazing bathrooms and showers. Great tree cover. Minutes from beach and dunes. Affordable.

This is a great area for those who (like us) have made I-80 a semi-annual migration pattern ;-) All kidding aside, this is a perfect spot either to or from the Chicago area. From Indiana Dunes State Park all the way up the coast to New Buffalo, the area is dotted with great little restaurants, wineries, and breweries. Tourist-y without being tacky.

There are plenty or rentals for those looking for a house-type stay.

Quick Tip: Prepare for cold water! Lake Michigan is usually pretty cold until later in the summer.

A beautiful, relaxing spot that’s just a stones throw away from a gorgeous beach!!
