Literally just outside Great Sand Dunes NP
We arrived after dark and there were no lights leading to our room so it made it difficult to find. However, the bed was comfortable and the views of the sand dunes were amazing. We saw lots of hummingbirds and deer just outside our room. The breakfast was just okay, and I felt it was over priced but the location can't be beat if your visiting the Great Sand Dunes NP.

Best thing about this lodge is that it’s close to the national park. If it was as far away as other lodging choices I would rate this one very low

Not fancy, but clean and very convenient to the Great Sand Dunes National Park. It has an awesome view of the dunes and we ate our breakfast on our patio looking at that beautiful view. They had a nice grab and go breakfast. Friendly staff.

Booking
The room was fine and the location was superb. We had a glitch with the booking that was due to "third party booking", so not their fault.

The lodge is very close to Great Sand Dunes national park. The bed was comfortable and the shower was hot. The fridge had food from previous guests and the floor needed to be swept.

It's a clean and simple motel with a great view of the Great Sand Dunes National Park. Just 5 minutes from the Visitor's Center, and just outside the park entrance. The staff was very courteous, and the continental breakfast was ample.

Very nice. Staff was very nice. Close to the park. Beautiful views. The view was one of my favorite on my vacation we visited the Rockies, The Great Sand Dunes and Mesa Verda. If I’d be in the area again, I would definitely stay here again.

Good glamping stay close to Great Sand Dunes. The dome was clean and comfortable and the showers were nice enough. Wish there had been mirrors and somewhere to set things down in the bathroom. Having towels available was really nice. We also liked the grab and go breakfast. The dinner at the Oasis store nearby was also good after a hot day sandboarding.
