I'll start by saying my three stars has nothing to do with the quality of the campsite. Camping was really nice and the staff was helpful. The park as a whole is pretty and bathrooms are well maintained. However, I paid $49 for a tent site arriving on my bicycle (as a non-county resident). Midwest parks need to do better to cater to tenters arriving under their own power... nearly $50 for a tent site with no vehicle is borderline ridiculous.

Excellent camping ground not far from the city and in close proximity to coffee shops or fast food places whilst giving the feel of camping in the woods and nature preserve. Good for folks getting introduced to camping. Very helpful staff, the only issue we faced was that the lack of water in the rest rooms and some frantic calls were made by the staff to get the water going again. Please call ahead and ensure that the water issues have been taken care of before you camp. Sand Ridge nature preserve has hiking trails that can be accessed between 8 AM to 4 PM from the camp grounds. You can also sign up for activities and nature preserve tours like the Frog Watch tour etc led by naturalists. Dogs are allowed on the camp sites but must be kept on a leash at all times. Overall, we enjoyed the camping but for the water issues in the rest rooms. I hope FPDCC and the camp site management take care of resolving this immediately.

Cabin camping and tent camping. The cabins have 4 bunk beds so 8 people can sleep but you have to bring your own bedding and pillows. The bathroom is across the lot and make sure your bring a shower caddy. Awsome camping just 3 minutes from Riveroaks mall.

This a great spot tucked away off Torrance. Lived here for the majority of my life and never noticed it. I definitely recommend for a corporate or school retreat.
