I stayed one night at the Piñon Flats Campground, and it’ll be one that I’ll remember fondly. After visiting the dunes and making a quick trip to the Point of No Return, I went to the campgrounds and stopped by the campground store. I had a nice time talking with the owner about the area and stuff then went to my camp site and set up my tent, which was pretty easy after I figured that I could use one of the rocks as a hammer for driving in stakes. The bathrooms were surprisingly clean and accessible. Overnight there was a light blanket snow and seeing the dunes glow in the moonlight was charming. And in the morning, packing up was quick and the roads were clear. Just remember to check the weather and pack warm clothes.

Enjoyed camping in the park - able to purchase firewood when we got there as we didn't have time to stop on the way in. Sites are close but have trees in between so you don't feel too on-top of your neighbors. Bathrooms were clean! And beautiful views whether you can see the dunes or not.

I tent camped one night at Pinon Flats Campground, and it was an excellent experience. I was able to get the reservation online. about 3 days before the night (early in the season). The site was available early and was neat and clean. The site had a great mix of shade and sun with a large flat area in the shade to pitch the tent. Bathrooms were very clean and well supplied. It was very quiet. I never met the campground host, but with the online reservations, you do not need to check in. The campground is very close to the base of the dunes, and the trailhead for one of the hikes is right in the campground.

Campground was great! It was extremely convenient for our short trip to the Great Sand Dunes. Grounds and restrooms were both clean. I would definitely stay here again.

This was a great campsite. The bathrooms were clean. The campsites had plenty of room between sites and trees for shade and a wind break.

The only campsite I’ve ever stayed at where I’m on top my neighbor, but the view is so good that I didnt even notice they were there.

The campground comprises terraced lanes of campsites on a slope, so the name is funny. Totally within hiking distance of the resource and the visitor center. The winds aren’t diabolical, but be ready to close your tent if sand gets blown around the campground.

Great campsite! Some views of the mountains and dunes. We fit in our 26’ travel trailer which was great because most sites are pretty small. It was near the bathrooms and the views were great. Amazing time!
