Indiana Dunes National Park, IN

The Indiana Dunes National Park is located on the southern shore of Lake Michigan. The park has a large campsite with dispersed spots, which makes camping here very comfortable. During our stay in October, the campsite was quiet with few visitors. Everything is very clean and the staff was super friendly!

From the campsite, a short walk on a well-kept hiking trail takes you straight to the beach. On clear days, you can even see the skyline of Chicago from here! There are several different nature hikes to go on as well as designated trails for bikes and horses. This is a place to visit for more than one night since there are so many different things to discover.

The dunes along the beach are quite steep! There are multiple spots to sit in the shady sand while enjoying the view of Lake Michigan. Pets are allowed at the beach and in the campsite as well!
