Been coming here 20 years. Although more crowded than ever, it’s still an amazing place to come.

We loved our stay here! The campsite was well maintained and beautiful. There were some loud visitors nearby, and not everyone understands proper bear/food protocol.

Enjoyed the sand dunes against the backdrop of the mountains. Visitors Center was worthwhile, and the film gave an excellent presentation of the area's history. Campground was set among the pinon pines, with adequate space between sites. A mix of 80% tents and 20% RVs. Only complaint was on our exit. Stopped at the dump station, intending fill our fresh tank. However, instead of a threaded hose connection which is required for such a fill via a hose, the water source hose was a smoothly welded connection that would work just fine filling a 5 gallon water container, but was useless for an RV. C'mon Sand Dunes, fix that!!

The site that we reserved was not made for a trailer and a truck. It required jackknifing of our trailer, which was a no go. The campsite was was noisy up till midnight. Whoever designed the campsite flip-flopped a lot of the campsite so that you couldn’t back into the site you had to turn into the site on a one way road. It was crazy. It was very upsetting. Our campsite also was tilted and was sloped d and we almost lost our trailer. This site was A12 and we won’t be returning again.
