We’ve camped here 4 times. Twice in tents, once in the cabins and the last time in our RV. The Great Sand Dune Natl park is one of our favorite places to go. The camp ground is clean, quiet and the views are amazing. You can see the milky way at nite and we saw two of the most incredible sunsets imaginable. Bathrooms are kept clean and the camp store has just everything you could need. There is a resturant also. Didn’t eat there so can’t comment on the food. I’ll go again and again and again.

Perfect base camp for the Dunes

We grabbed a tent site for our small teardrop for a night and decided to stay 2. Staff was very freindly. Store had essentials including a gas pump. Only a handful of folks in the tent area and it was nice and quiet. fantastic views of the dunes and plenty of shaded sites. Bathroom in the tent sites were clean

Last minute stay close to Great Sand Dunes NP

We stopped in when we missed out on a spot at Zapata Falls earlier in the day. The road is rough coming up and some of the sites aren’t the most level, but there was plenty of space- we drove in and picked whatever looked good as it wasn’t busy when we visited. Showers very clean, drinking water available. Gorgeous view of the dunes at sunset. There is a general store/restaurant on premises for any odds and ends. Most importantly, only about 2 miles from the entrance to the park!

Great location but campsites are relatively small. Roads are very bumpy and not easy to get around. Bathrooms and showers are available. If you want to rent sandboards make sure you arrive in time as they step renting them out around 3 pm.

Close to the Dunes

Road was horrible getting to spot (huge rocks and potholes). We only stayed one night and it was extremely windy so we did not get a chance to explore the campground. Loved being just a stones throw away from the dunes. Bathrooms were fine.

Great Sand Dunes Oasis

Booked a last minute RV spot at Great Sand Dunes Oasis.

The bad:

The park is not much to look at. The gravel roads and store parking area are in dire need of maintenance; buckle up. There are 20 RV spots all stacked in right on top of each other. The wind was awful and there is nothing to block it. There’s really nothing between the sites but a little strip with a picnic table and small fire ring, and a small tree.

The good:

The bathrooms and showers were incredibly clean. The person I dealt with on the phone was very accommodating and set us up for after-hours check-in. There was a small playground area near the RV sites. Above the RV sites were cabins and a lodge. They rent Sand sleds to use at the park, $20 each + wax for the day. There is a beautiful view of the dunes from the park.

The restaurant had not opened yet so I have no opinion of that. The store had just opened and was not fully stocked.

RV sites were pull-through but it’s pretty tight on your passenger side pulling in.

All said, I would return to this park again. It is a good place to use as a home base while you explore Great Sand Dunes National Park. Trust me: you will need to shower the sand off.

Our First Camping Trip of 2022

We absolutely loved Sand Dunes Oasis! It was still off season so we did not have running water at the site but we were able to fill up on site when we arrived. The code to the bathroom changes so if you check in after dark, be sure to get a new code the next day! We almost could not take showers as a result!

Super Accommodating!

I was planning to car camp on some public land after a day at Great Sand Dunes. As I was driving out, I passed Oasis’s store and decided to stop for some ice and firewood. As I was driving out to my site for the night, I saw super dark skies and lightening. I checked the forecast and realized it took a turn and I could expect thunderstorms all night. I decided to give them a call 30 minutes before they closed to see if they had any cabins available and they did! The cabins are super primitive and you have to be fully equipped for tent camping. They are only $55 a night which is a steal that close to a National Park. They typically don’t allow dogs in the cabins, but given the forecast let me stay with my sweet pup for an extra $20. They had an awesome view of the dunes and it was a really great night to have a roof over my head. Could not be more grateful to the amazing staff here!

Great campground close to dunes

We stayed in the RV lot for 1 night. You can rent sand boards and sleds here if the weather is right. There is also a restaurant with food that was better than we expected it to be and a gas station. Bathrooms were fantastic. Showers were some of the best I’ve seen with a private dressing area and hooks/shelves to put your dry clothes on. There is a dishwashing station also. Lots are close together. Super close to the dunes - you get a great view of them from the campground. There’s also a small playground for kids. Staff was super friendly and helpful!

Great View of Great Sand Dunes nat'l Park and good location

The campground is very close to the entrance to the Great Sand Dunes National Park and the campground has a great view of the sand dunes as well. I give it high praises for having free showers - a must after visiting the sand dunes. Additionally, it is super dark at night-time...I had to take my dog out at about 1 am to do his business and the view of the stars was phenomenal!

Having said that, the campground is pretty spartan...there isn't much in the way of trees and separation between RV campsites. But you don't go here for the great campground, you go here because it's super close to the entrance to the Sand Dunes.

Not sure what’s worse, the park itself or Holly

Where to start. The place looked like a dump when we pulled in so we asked if we could preview the site before paying. Holly said “no” but if we didn’t like it we could come back for a refund. The site was nothing but dirt and there were maybe 3-4 other RV’s there. Despite the park being almost completely empty all the RV’s were right on top of each other. Even though the site was horrible we decided to check out the park before making a final decision. The park was not for us so we asked Holly for a refund. She refused because we “took too long” to make a decision. We made our decision within 20 minutes of our arrival and didn’t use any amenities, other than the dirt road to check out our site. She said that because so many people request refunds she had to limit our decision making time to 5 minutes or less. Do whatever you can to avoid this dust bowl and in particular Holly. I’m not sure what was worse, the site or Holly herself but I’m pretty sure Holly wins the last place prize by a nose. Not that she’s a horse, that would be an insult to horses

Backpack in and camp

We backpacked into the dunes for about 90 minutes. First we had to cross a small stream about 30 yards across - 12 to 20 inches deep. There’s nothing like camping on a sand dune - no lights visible as far as you can see. During the night the winds whips up and blows the sand very hard. The Park Rangers estimated the wind gusts reached 30-25 MPH during the night. It was crazy loud. In the morning we had sand everywhere - mouth, nose, inside sleeping bag. Be prepared for gusts over 15 MPH in the spring.

Every thing you need to explore the dunes.

As I write this I'm looking out on a spectacular sunset from our spot at Oasis RV campground.

This is our second night here and as RV parks go it's got all the basics covered. You don't come to this RV camp ground for the amenities you come here for the Dunes. Which are STUNNING.

So I recommend coming here if you want a full hookup site that is super close the entrance to the GSDNP. This is no resort but a great place to setup Basecamp for all those awesome adventures in the park.

Our family camping in Great Sand dunes

We enjoyed the camping trip, and the kids love it. My wife bought the burrito in the restaurant, and the great chili is fantastic; you must try it if you like great New Mexico food. Only be careful in dune we got bites on legs, which was very bad after a few days later. I never know about it until with my experience. Here is a link for your information. https://www.fleabites.net/sand-flea-bites-on-humans-pictures-treatment-and-prevention/ My kids get a few bits. I got a lot, I think, because I was lying in the sand for a long time to rest after climbing the dunes. Just beware... Likely I used the recommendation in the article, and it works well. I feel much better now..

Beautiful views

Staff is great, several full hook up RV pull through sites, cleans bathrooms and showers. The view of the Dunes from the RV area is wonderful and only four mile from the entrance to the National Park. Good rates compared to others in the area. Zapata Falls is less than 10 miles away, Alamosa is thirty minutes. The views just driving this area are amazing and Mt Blanca is breathtaking.

Great location, no showers, no bathrooms

Perfect location to visit Great Sand Dunes NP, and nice view of the dunes from some of the sites. However, due to COVID they closed down showers and bathrooms and have portable toilets instead. How is this more hygienic I don´t understand...

The dirt road to get to the sites can be a bit bumpy. We were fine on our 4WD, but it must be rough in a normal car.
