Not fancy but worked great for the nights we were there. Super nice folks, level site though fairly small for our RV. Staff took us to the site and helped guide us in and were available when we needed anything. convenient to the lake and the Windy City.

Hosts and staff were very friendly. Great amenities and lots of space to camp. Loved having our tent right next to the bog!! The gift shop was a nice touch.
