Family-Friendly

I went to Pentoga many years as a kid, always a good time.  They have a decent playground and camp store, the beach is great for swimming and the lake for fishing.  They have a dock to jump off about 50' out, and another with a diving board about 200' out.  There are trails and a lot of history to discover, it is quite crowded though...

Quiet and family friendly

This summer was our 3rd visit to Pentoga Park. There are a lot of RV's at this campground. We have a tent.

Make your reservations far in advance. Like January 1st for that spring, summer or fall. The campground is within walking distance to beautiful Chicagoan Lake. Onsite laundry and small camp store. Not a lot of privacy in the campground. Most people are in RV's so that's not an issue. Great for camping with other families.

For those who don't camp, but want to be a part of daily activities, there is a hotel nearby.
