About the Campsite
Paul Wolff Campground offers a variety of campsites, including both primitive and more developed ones. While there is electricity available, water spigots are shared and sometimes positioned at a distance, so a longer hose might be necessary. This campground is surrounded by forest preserves, providing beautiful hiking trails and the opportunity to connect with nature.Important Considerations
- Reservations: As of 2024, reservations must be made online; the first-come, first-served policy has been discontinued.
- Site Specifications: Some sites are quite close to each other, lacking privacy, while others are spacious with ample separation.
- Amenities: Power pedestals are available at all sites, but no direct sewer hookup is provided—two dump stations are available instead.
- Cleanliness: The campground is well-maintained, with clean toilet facilities, although some have reported they could benefit from additional odor control solutions.
- Regulations: No attachments (like hammocks) are allowed on trees due to forest preserve regulations.
Campsite Tips
- Preparedness: Bring sufficient water hoses to ensure access to water, as the distance to spigots can vary.
- Pest Awareness: Be mindful of bugs like chiggers and mosquitoes, and consider bringing repellent for comfort.
- Wildlife: Expect encounters with stray cats, adding a unique aspect to the camping experience.
- Proximity: The campground's location is approximately an hour from downtown Chicago, offering convenient access for city excursions.
