Any suggestions or recommendations regarding a suitable overnight campground off of 94 near the Indiana border? Does the Four Winds Casino allow overnighting?

Want to get an early morning start westbound on 80 past Chicago!

Thanks!

Not that I don't believe you, but when was this?
We were there last year and I had a planned excursion that would have us stopped there next spring.

Thanks

Matt

I just called and checked, it looks like we won't be doing any stopping and shopping there ever again.

If you grin & bare it, people might buy tickets to see that! LOL

Maybe you have a special reason for not traveling west through the UP and south through Wisconsin? If not, that would be my route. I hate big city traffic with a passion.

Looks like the State Park....leaving at 2:00 am!

Not being sarcastic....heard from enough frustrated folks trying to get past Chicago on #80...guess it's another "grin & bare it" or is it 'Bear" it?

Thanks for the feedback everyone!

Your early morning start better be about 3:00 a.m. or you're too late.

Our favorite and we use it most times when we go west, is the Cabela's Off I-80 at Exit 2 in Hammond. The lot has truck parking (we don't usually use) and is patrolled. There is now also a super Wally's in the next lot. We haven't asked about parking there.
