We wasted no time to make sure that we got out somewhere after moving to the Chicago area. We decided to do a night trip at Kohler Andrae State Park, which is just a few miles south of Sheboygan, WI. This park is very family friendly and has things from church services, music nights, the nature center's education program, beautiful beach and a park area with shelters and a playground. There is an awesome dune cord-walk about 2 miles long, which is a literal board by board connected with cord that twists and turns throughout the sand dunes. There are several other hiking trails throughout the state park as well. There is a pet-friendly beach at the northern end near the park office if you so happen to bring your pet companion along. The campsites are a little tight but there are a few secluded ones that you might get lucky to snag up. Unfortunately, we didn't write down the good campsite numbers so you will have tootle around and find them for yourself. It does have a shower house and both flush and vault toilets depending on which loop you are in.
