Sand Creek Campground

What a nice campground. The lots are spacious. The area is so large that it spreads the campers around and it feels very quiet. There were lots of tent camps over the fourth but it stayed pretty quiet. Noise and fireworks done by 11.
I really wanted to give this a higher rating but the management is not doing a great job with the property. The grounds crew are campers. They are extremely friendly and are the only ones you can find to get anything done. The owners are supposed to be in the office daily from 1−9pm. But getting a hold of them is a nightmare. Kind of like trying to make reservations. We ended up calling three times and emailing 4 times before we got a hold of someone.
The wood is not well managed. Especially for a Holiday weekend. They were out of wood by Saturday morning. But the grounds crew did help us get some wood for the night.
I would recommend some improvement in management, an answering service and probably some advertising for this place.
They are on the high side of cost for the lots. But again it is a very laid back campground. So it was very relaxing and we really enjoyed the whole weekend.
It is just minutes away from beaches, drive in movies, shopping or grocery stores. This place would be a gold mine with a few more updates and some good management.

Nice campground but not if you are wanting actual camping. We were tent camping and all the tent sites were muddy and definitely over priced. The sites were all very open with NO privacy. They didn’t have a BBQ or a grill cover for the fireplace. The bathrooms were clean and the pool was nice. Much more of and RV park for extended stay. Again it’s nice but we wouldn’t come here again.

Chesterton was not a place that came to kind when I thought if camping. After a few hours here, it’s a place I won’t forget.
Camp sites are well spaced, and most have a working power source. RV’s are welcome, and have a separate area to park in from the campers and tent area. This campground has a pool, laundry room, and playground.
