Good
Thanks! Your review is awaiting moderation.
They found some asbestos and seeing if there's more
On "any" site? No. Some are smaller. But plenty of sites will fit that size camper.
The outside air temperature is about 10 degrees cooler by the water. The water temperature is about 60 degrees.
Yes, I have been camping there since I was young and never had any issues. Park rangers do monitor during the night
300 number camp sites we can see the water and hear it.
Sand just washes away, every time, due to erosion. If you want a sandy beach, try the one in Pleasant Prairie, in the 'Carol Beach' subdivision. It's beautiful.
Wonderful park all around. Watching the waves can be mesmerizing. Its very soothing to the soul....,.best with someone at your side....If you camp, the sunrise is included in the cost, if you get up early enough. The park doesn't open till 8 for visitors so you'll have to camp to see the sunrise.
There is a resort hotel with bar, restaurant, and hotel that costs.
No

Campgrounds require reservations these days. There is no first come first serve option.
Beach still closed cuz of damaged from big wave that time stront wind . It take time to repair also I see people bring pet. I dont see any horse riding that place
No it's not free, there's a fee for day use and if you camp in a space there is also a fee. Nothing is free.
Boats can't be docked near the beach. There are large boulders underwater that can do significant damage. There is a marina between the north and south state parks.
You can get out anytime, entry gate closed after 10PM officially
I only know of the one right by the campground. I've never seen any children playing there. My guess is like all Illinois campgrounds it's run down and in need of repairs
No, but as someone mentioned the hotel marina is basically on the beach.
If you can swim, you have a marked area to avoid anything in the deep zone.
Check-out is 3pm, so official check-in is likely around then as well. You can call ahead to find out if the site is already empty. If so, they'll normally allow you to check-in before 3pm. But that's unofficial, so up to the attendant on duty.
There is a full service laundromat right on Sheridan Road, just south of Wadsworth Ave. a few blocks.
No
I was visiting area from PA. Contact Illinois State beach waukegan il.
Bring ur own tent Drive around till u find a site u site Between $25 to $35
Check their website, they have water and electricity, but I think you have to use a dump site ( on premises) we were tent camping so I'm not sure. There are wetlands all around, so no escape from the mosquitoes. Have deet spray and citronella candles. The camp site is not on the beach, but is a short walk away. They let us drive around to pick a site. All seem to be nice, but I recommend being a distance from the shower house to avoid noise and traffic. Have a safe trip
The third dump out of the camp on road to hotel stays open untill final close.
Sure...but safety should be at the highest level. The lake has lots of Undertow. Which on some day make it dangerous to kayak or swim. Have fun but be mindful of how far out you get.
The picnic sites have a grill and tables- there is not a shelter besides trees
The spots are large and the distance between campers is good. Privacy is a personal matter.
I'm sorry. I don't know about that. I wouldn't think that you would have to. Public Beach. Lake Michigan as long as the weather is hot the water is perfect to cool off. I would call & ask , however I can't imagine why not? Should you choose to go, then, Have a Great Time!! I misread the question. I reread it & you asked about booking a Volleyball Net. I'm not sure. Always best to call ahead the phone number on the Google Maps & ask. My apologies for my mistake!
Yes they have tables at every site
Of course, it's a beach! The water never really warms up but on a hot day its a nice way to cool off.
Yeah i seen alot of that stuff out there ! Just beware of the wind ... It will push you way out if your not careful !
Yes and yes.
They close I believe at 9 for check ins.
Checkout time is 3pm. If the site you reserved is not occupied, then you can check-in as soon as the office is open - just give them a call to get the okay in advance. Not sure of the exact time in the morning.
25 bucks a night holidays are 35
You would have to pay for the campground spot
Thank you... Would anyone have any recommendations for a campground nearby that's more secluded? Or cabins? Thank you
No you don't but they kick everybody out at 9:00 p.m.
Individual sites vary little. All have electric, fireplace, and picnic table. Sites can be viewed 360 degrees online by number selecting the box above the reserve box.
Max people on a campsite? Your question is not clear. If you mean on a campsite, they are not going to look in your car or RV when you sign in and count how many are with you. However if you obviously have lots of people on your site and perhaps neighbors complain you could be made to leave.
Dogs welcome but have to be on leash. No dogs allowed on beach.
In the front entrance connected to the club. There is handicap parking and other amenities beside the boat docks. Hope this helps.
From the parking lot and sidewalk yes
For South Beach Wadsworth Sheridan North Beach a longer walk.
Some sites might just be specific to electric and water.
Just stayed at the resort hotel. Good price nice pool. But be cautious of of the employees. I got charged extra150 for" smoking" I rented 4 rooms. Just in Case I needed an extra room. So I didn't even use the room. Called manager about bogus charge. He refused to acknowledge my point of view. I also explained that the room next door was smoking and that's the main reason I didn't use the room. He said there's no way that smoke could get in my room. Even though the rooms have a shared door??? Yeah right this place is great. But the workers are crooks.
Each camp site has a fire pit.
It might be off season.... Definitely contact the office prior to visiting.
Best bet is to reserve at "reserveamerica" . . . .com(?). 3 spots are saved for arrivals with no reservations, which we attempted on a Thursday. We were told campground full, & "Thursday is the new Friday". Went in to check those 3 sites. (Chose not to stay). It was dusk, so we drove through the campground, & found many vacant sites. Therefore, suggest the reserveamerica site.
Oh yeah you sure can. It's beautiful here right now.
Hello Denise, the best place to see interesting and beautiful birds is at Waterfall Glenn. It is a enormous precious place full of nature located on South Cass Ave.
I don't know much about the camp site, this weekend was posted as full. Beach was very nice. It was crowded over the July 4th weekend.
They have signs specifically indicating no pets so I don't believe there is
Their is a camping location it was used when I was their because of the snow and ice
No absolutely not. You must wear clothing.
The site prohits hanging stuff on the trees, so most likely not, if you want to hook the hammock between the trees.
I would say its about a 30 minute drive from the Navy base. And for a tent it would be $20 a night.
I've heard of people fishing in Kellogg Creek that runs from lake Michigan all the way up past Sheridan, and it also drains and flows into/out of sandpond at the drainage pipe. Don't let sandponds appearance fool you, it's pretty good fishing
Illinois State Park policy is that a campsite may have one family, or up to four unrelated people over 18, so I'd say you're probably out of luck.
It is clearly stated on multiple signs "No Dogs Allowed on Beach". But there are trails and a cement path along Lake Michigan that everyone brings their dogs to. We take our 2 Chihuahuas there regularly.

This resort is booked out for Memorial day weekend. I know because I am getting married there.
North Point Marina in Winthrop Harbor used to rent beach fire pits
Good Morning! I'm going to guess that the others are right & 3 pm. Then again, I don't know from my own experience, but former neighbors would spend the entire summer camping there. Even though the Summer is at the back end right now, THERE'S 1 CATCH....IF you choose to do like they did, every 7th day, they had to pack up & go home, for 24 hours. Enough time to restock food, water & do laundry. They were back down there as soon as they could be! As always, not much help because we only walk the dog down there, unless you call the number on Google Maps, I can tell you this much..... IF you want to camp for 6 days & return, I am told that the people who do that, the Camp Ground is like a community. Meet new people, IF you like, if not, not required. I know I got away from the "Check in Check out" question, so I'm going to resort to my go to answer which is Best to call first. I'm sorry I couldn't help you more!😫 I'll ask my friend & edit Enjoy & Have a Great Weekend!!😁
Dogs are allowed, leased only. The state park is very large and right on lake front. Lots of walking trails. Because of Lake Michigan, as a water source for many communities, it does also serve as waste discharge. On some days the level of the contaminate within the water is too high for swimmers and even dogs.
I know there are not any down by the beach, but i havent looked around 100% of the campground area to know if there is one back there.
