The views of the sand dunes from this campsite are absolutely amazing… Nancy the camp host was great and full of information. Make sure to do the Zapata Falls hike.… It’s easy and so beautiful. The campsites are well maintained, and the bathrooms are very clean as well… We did it two night stay and could have easily stayed longer… We will definitely be back! oh, and definitely hit the visitor center… We learned so much about why the dunes are even there!

Well maintained, gorgeous area. We had an RV spot because tent spots were booked. Still had ample space to set up our tent. Will be returning.

The campground is easy to navigate, and looks west toward the sand dunes and beautiful sunsets. There is an easy, convenient direct path from camp to the base of the dunes. A handy campstore is just a few steps in the other direction. The bathrooms are heated; important on cold mornings! When I made our reservation, we felt lucky to have a spot because all the other places were reserved. We were saddened, however, to see a quarter of them unoccuppied. It turned out that our site had a slant so steep such that we couldn't correct for it with all our leveling pads. Even so, we were not able to move to a flat empty space next door. (Apparently people reserve spots and don't use them or cancel? I got the idea from the campground host that this goes on a lot at this N.P?)

We've been camping here for the past 20+ years and we just love it. The proximity to the dunes, and how it the campground is tucked away from the day use/picnic area is great. The bathrooms are clean and well maintained too. Some of the sites are smaller and there can be a lack of shade depending on your site, so be prepared...

We visited with children from ages 10-1 and loved the site. We had site 6, it was shaded and yet had a good view of part of the dunes behind the restrooms and direct access to the dunes trail. The bathrooms were warm and exceptionally clean. The only downside is the restrooms and bear-safe trash cans were frequented almost all night by other campers so the slam of the bear trash door was jarring at times. The shade of the trees was nice and it created a barrier between us and other campers and shielded us from the wind.
