First time to Tower Hill Camp? Or maybe you just want a refresher on how to get here. We have placed our driving instructions here for ease of use.
From the Chicago area, take either the TRI-STATE TOLL ROAD, I-294 or the JFK/”IKE” EXPRESSWAY to the RYAN/SKYWAY/INDIANA TOLL ROAD to I-94 East. Once you are on I-94 EAST, continue into Michigan and EXIT on EXIT 12 (Sawyer, Michigan). There is a TA Travel Center at this exit. Exit 12 is only 12 miles into the state of Michigan. As you leave the I-94 exit ramp, Turn Right. You will pass under I-94. Turn Right at the traffic light onto Red Arrow Highway then within one block Turn Left onto Tower Hill Road. Continue along Tower Hill Road. The camp will be approximately 3/4 mile on your right, BEFORE the road turns right.
Take I-57 to Sauk Trail Exit #339 (approx. 7 miles south of I-80). Go east through Richton Park, Park Forest, South Chicago Heights, and Sauk Village.
At the Illinois-Indiana border, Sauk Trail merges with Route 30. DO NOT get off of I-57 at Route 30 because when Sauk Trail, Route 30 and Route 83 all merge at almost the same point, it is Sauk Trail that moves and Route 30 that gets stuck.
Continue East through Dyer, Schererville, and Merrillville. In Merrillville, go NORTH on I-65. (Drive under I-65 and turn right on the clover leaf - it is a major intersection)
Proceed North on I-65 about 7 miles until you reach I-94. Word of caution: first exit on to I-94 is actually west bound to Chicago, wait another ½ mile and then exit east bound.
Take I-94 towards CHICAGO and EXIT on EXIT 12 (Sawyer, Michigan). There is a TA Travel Center at this exit.
As you leave the I-94 exit ramp, Turn Left. Turn Right at the traffic light onto Red Arrow Highway then within one block Turn Left onto Tower Hill Road. Continue along Tower Hill Road. The camp will be approximately 3/4 mile on your right, BEFORE the road turns right.
Take the 31 Bypass towards Niles, Michigan. Get off the Niles/New Buffalo Exit, you will have to TURN RIGHT then get in the LEFT HAND LANE to head SOUTH on US HWY 12. You will follow HWY 12 until you reach THREE OAKS RD (there will be a Speed Way across from you at the 4-way light). TURN RIGHT onto THREE OAKS RD and follow it until you come to a T Intersection. TURN LEFT onto then TURN RIGHT at the LIGHT onto Red Arrow Highway. Go one block then TURN LEFT onto Tower Hill Road.
Continue along Tower Hill Road. The camp will be approximately 3/4 of a mile on your right, BEFORE the road comes to a sharp bend.
