Ok, I'll been as honest and fair as I can as I post my review of Lakeshore Camp Resort. The word…read moreresort is a tall order on this place for myself. When we first pulled in with my 31' travel trailer we were really disappointed. At first take as you look around there were many run down junky campers and sites. Something we were not expecting. We got all checked in and found our site and thought about pulling through and leaving. However, we decided to stay as our main focus was to visit the Indiana Dunes and then spend a day in the Windy City to see the Cubbies. Once settled and hooked up we surly noticed many unkempt sites, some filled with old 2x4's, rotted plywood and weeds. (That would be easily cleaned up) Don't know why they don't... We went for a walk around the lake and really took notice of the permanent sites were folks come every weekend. They were well kept, beautiful lawns and sites. The locals were all welcoming and waved a said hi. In the evening they had events (bingo, a band etc) There was a decent little putt putt course only costing $2 per person. My son ended up loving playing every day and getting ice cream at the snack shack. This place really kinda grew on us. There is security that drives around and even on our last night they drove around and warned everyone of severe weather. I believe this place has many retired police and firefighters staying here. As our weekend came to an end I would say the only down side that I would let be known is the interstate that is very close to one side of the resort. I94 was loud and distracting. You have sport bikes buzzing past at 90 mph and big rigs running their "J" brakes all night. So there it is. Not too many campsites near the dunes unless you stay in the State Park without full hook up. I'd come back now knowing what is expected.

Beaches are beautiful and water is cold early in the season. The day I went there was a high wave advisory so they didn't let people in the water. Best views of the lake are from observation tower located west of the pavilion. Waves are loud if the wind is blowing from the north. You can see the City of Chicago skyline from anywhere on the beach when it is clear weather conditions. No pets on the beach and it does tend to get crowded when the weather is nice. Walking/hiking paths are available and some go the the highest points in the park where the views are breathtaking.

But we didn't mind the $12 vehicle fee just for the view. South of the park on SR-49, you'll see a Visitors Center, and if we were staying longer, it's a nice stop for local park info, campground reservations, souvenirs, and refreshments. The drive into the state park to Porter Beach takes you through thick woods, and we saw a buck crossing the road, which was a real treat and a reminder that these parks are wild enough. At the end of SR-49, there's an ornate pavilion, and it was closed due to the upcoming holiday, even the cafe and store were closed. The restrooms outside on the boardwalk were open. And we brought our lunch in from Culver's down by I-80. There were only a couple other cars during the time we were there. We pulled up and braved the blowing sand to get a look at the thrashing waters of Lake Michigan. With gusts up to 40mph from an approaching storm, the eaves were spectacular! But it was difficult to stay upright in that wind, not to mention the light sand-blasting we were getting. And we were on the road heading for a holiday visit, so we didnt stay long, only an hour or so. It's a beautiful park, even in the winter. We want to sled down the 170ft dune-canyon known as Devil's Slide!
