Most campsites have a little shade which is nice! Also the cleanest bathroom I have ever experienced in a campground.

One of the finest National Park campgrounds in the history of camping. The architectural design is above and beyond. The staff were friendly and accommodating. They have a camp store with firewood and ice cream. What more could you ask for?

We had an incredible time at Great Sand Dunes National Park! We were expecting to have a great time but left having had more fun than we anticipated. We went in late October so the aspens were gorgeous and the temperatures much cooler than during the summer months. We began by hiking the Mosca Pass Trail, then took our 4WD Jeep on the primitive road a few miles north into the park. Be prepared to get sand everywhere and hiking up the dunes is harder than you'd think but so worth it once you get to the top. The campground itself was immaculate with pristine bathrooms and extremely well-maintained grounds. Grab some sand boards from Oasis a few miles outside the park and have a blast sandboarding the dunes! Can't wait to go back!

We enjoyed our stay. Our site had some shade which was pleasant. Of course, camping in the park was extremely convenient to the Dunes! 😊

Beautifully renovated campground. Flush toilets and dish washing stations were great. Easy walk to the dunes.

Very clean campground. Parking at some sites were tight, so most campers were smaller trailers or tent campers. Dunes were fun to hike, but the Mosca pass was really nice. A longer hike, but a nice trail. Be sure to bring water.

The campfire smoke from so many campsites required us to close all the windows in our camper. We both have respiratory issues and smoke at high elevations is very challenging for us to breathe. Given the high potential for wildfires starting from campfires, I would suggest that the park service ban all campfires.

I’ve been camping 🏕️ at the Dunes for more than 60 years. It’s a special place! The newly paved roads and beautiful remodeled visitor center were pleasant surprises.

Very nice and well taken care of campground. We could only stay one of the two nights that we reserved because it was too cold for the younger kids, but I have told everyone that is the place to go to enjoy the dunes and the area! Will definitely be back!
