Lovely campground. The host, Nancy, was amazing - we had a hiccup with our campsite (someone else thought it was theirs), and she was so kind to us, offering to share her small trailer with the 3 of us while we waited for things to sort themselves out, then checking in with us all evening and the next day. We were so grateful she was so thoughtful, responsive, kind, and helpful.

Quiet, and spacious campground with a view of the dunes. I was glad to have picked a site with trees for shade.

Amazing camping, star gazing, and sites are well kept. But the place is in desperate need of a shower facility. 2 nights without a bath is rough, especially after being in the sand.

This is a great campground if you are planing on staying at the great sand dunes. It gets a little windy but not too bad. We recommend stargazing!

Beautiful park and definitely worth the visit. For the campground, some of the spots are very hard to back into if you need to be able to. The bugs were awful until the sun went down. I'm glad we didn't arrive until about 1 hour before the sun went down. The large bear bins are very nice and restrooms were very close to our site, but do not have good lighting and no mirrors.

This campground is tidy and well-maintained. Sites are clearly marked and rules are posted. The bathroom facilities are clean.

Check in was beyond easy, the view from this campsite is STUNNING, and the bathrooms are within a decent distance! We saw a couple of deer pass through directly in front of our campsite at sunrise, which was also a fun surprise! The only negative that I can come up with is that the campsite was completely covered with red harvester ants and there happened to be a nest right by the walkway. We came from Missouri, so harvester ants were completely new to us. While putting up our tent, I got stung by one and dealt with swelling, hives, and immense pain due to the venom. Harvester ant venom often causes anaphylaxis, so be very cautious and diligent. Overall, the dunes and the beautiful campsite were great! Just be cautious!

A large dog was roaming around the campsites. It seemed like they were undeterred by the host and Rangers after reporting it.
3 different people came to setup camp on my pad throughout the night and I had to chase them off.
A large group of cars came to park at our site to use the bathrooms. My young son needed to use the bathroom but all the stalls were taken by these people washing themselves up. I asked them to leave and they got hostile with me.
Will never stay here again. This seems like a regular occurrence at this site.
