Summary

AI generated

Hauser Sand Camping is a well-loved spot known for its cleanliness and friendly forest service staff. Many campers enjoy the location and plan to return, although some have experienced disturbances from nearby dune riders and challenging access for larger vehicles. While it may be ideal for those who enjoy off-roading, traditional campers might find it less suitable due to noise and accessibility issues.

Love the spot have camped there before but this time a bunch of kids kept riding their 4 wheelers through camp site and inches away from my camper. It would be great if i could and maybe next time shut down the trail that leads into the back of the camp site.

There was zero way a 4x4 pickup with 15 lb of air in tires would get down and back up V8 hill to get to this camp spot. We did get to that point just fine but we're not going to chance that hill to camp. Also, we were told that the main trail goes right past the spot so the dune riders would be blasting past at all hours.
We elected to find a spot down the road at a horse camp. Luckily, we were able to find one last minute on 4th of July weekend.
If you plan to park your truck and ride into camp than this is the spot for you. If dune riding is life, this is the spot for you. If camping is what you are after--- THIS IS NOT THE SPOT FOR YOU.
