Review from Heather T.
Champaign, IL
Pretty, pretty, pretty!
Being from Milwaukee, I probably visited this park on elementary school field trips. I vaguely remembered it when I went with the boy in the spring sometime. We went walking along the dunes (which have a wood planked walking trail) that overlook Lake Michigan. It was a delightful mix of sunny inland, and stormy over the lake. The result was that we could see the pouring rain and a rainbow at the same time. Totally gorgeous.
This is a very well maintained state park. As you walk along the plants, there are informative signs about the plants that you'll see. This includes labeling the biggest patch of poison ivy I've ever seen. So, not only do you learn something on your walk, but you save yourself an awful lot of itchiness. ;) -
Review from Dan P.
Naperville, IL
The3 facilities are pretty good, although the bathrooms can use some attention. They use these huge 8 roll TP holders that actually block the ability to "get comfortable". The showers are clean with plenty of hot water. Campsites are kept very clean, and the roads are in great condition and well marked which is important for first timers. The beach is just a short walk from most campsites, and you can hear the lake all night. Getting Ice is... Interesting. I felt kinda awkward climbing between the guy's truck and trailer to knock on his door to rouse him for ice. Kinda odd. The biggest plus is the crowd though. Even on a holiday weekend where the place was packed, the din died down early. Got a great night's sleep..... Well as good as one can get in a tent. Just a couple little things keep Kohler-Andrae from getting that fifth star.
