Hi!
We are looking to go camping in Michigan not too far(maybe 2 hours or so) from Chicago. Any good campgrounds that are close to a beach?? We are looking for a place with flush toilets and showers! We were just at the Indiana Dunes and stayed at the state park and it was wonderful. We looked into the Warren Dunes but they are booked every weekend already! We don't mind staying at a campground and driving to the beach either. Any suggestions??

Thanks!
L.

What can I do next?

LOL...Michigan does have mosquito's, but I've never been to a campground swarmed with mosquito's and I've camped a lot in my life!

I'm not really familiar with many campgrounds south of me because we mostly go north. But my advice would be to check out the state campgrounds. In my opinion most are kept very clean, have great restrooms and are nice.

At this website you can search the map then look for what they have to offer. For the best beach type campgrounds, your better off looking at the ones near the edge of the state near our great lakes.

Here's a good website.

use the interactive map on the left side of the page.

The remark about mosquitos is silly. We don't have anymore than anyone else does.

Michigan has more mosquitos than any other state I've ever been in.

Ludington State Park is a great campground. They have a beach right on Lake Michigan, a river that you can tube/canoe down, great trails, dunes, a small nature center, waterfall, fishing, boating, etc. The only problem is that it is very hard to get reservations.
