195+ Site, 50-Acre Fully Entitled & Approved RV Resort Located Near Indiana Dunes National Park

Marketing description

The Indiana Dunes RV Resort Development presents a fully entitled opportunity to develop a Class A RV resort on approximately 50 acres in Porter, Indiana. The project is approved for 180+ full hook-up RV sites and 15 park model cottages, with completed site planning, utilities, and grading significantly reducing development risk and accelerating timeline to revenue. The property also includes a recently renovated farmhouse currently operating in the rental market, providing in-place income and flexibility for future use as guest accommodations, on-site management housing, or a food & beverage concept. Additional upside exists through the potential development of the northeastern portion of the site for retail or restaurant use, as well as adaptive reuse of the existing farmhouse and barn to further enhance revenue and guest experience.

Located near Indiana Dunes National Park—one of the most visited national parks in the U.S. with nearly 3 million annual visitors—and less than 50 minutes from Chicago, the property benefits from strong drive-to demand and access to over 30 million people within a three-hour radius. The immediate market is characterized by limited RV campground supply, with nearby public campgrounds operating at or near full capacity during peak seasons, underscoring a clear supply-demand imbalance. Offered at $2.9 million, the development provides a rare opportunity to deliver a high-quality, amenity-driven resort in a supply-constrained market, with multiple revenue streams including transient RV stays, cottages, and ancillary income from retail, events, and on-site services.
