Clean, comfortable, good views. The bear lockers worked great. You will definitely want to check individual site pictures before booking a pad as some pads could barely hold an 8x8 tent and others could hold two easily. They also say two car limit but the parking spaces by pads varied just as much for if they could comfortably hold 1-2 cars. The campground store was open but hours were a little weird with the shutdown affecting them. There was still a site host/ranger who checked in to make sure the people at sites had the correct reservations and a ranger who did rounds for trash daily.

This is a very nice campground with clean restrooms and you can walk right out to the dunes. The only reason I docked it a star is because the sites are fairly close together and sadly there were a lot of people playing loud music on Bluetooth speakers late into the night and fairly early in the morning. I was impressed though that the second night park rangers actually drove through the campground multiple times enforcing rules related to trash and dogs being off leash.

Beautiful easy to access campground. Well laid out with space for small trailers or campers. Clearly defined camping spots with table and fire pit. Plenty of bear safe lockers and trash cans. Bathrooms are super well maintained. Rangers we're incredibly helpful. Online reservation system highly recommended and easy to use. Clear directions and an on site small store. Easy access to the dunes and several other nearby sites and cities for necessities.

Loved the beauty and remoteness of this campground! The view of the sand dunes and mountain range from the campsite was spectacular!Although there were no showers, the bathrooms seemed brand new and were immaculate! Hiking trails were very accessible and host/hostess were responsive and helpful. We will definitely return to this beautiful place!

Piñon Flats was a fabulous place to stay on our most recent visit to Sand Dunes. The campground was clean and well-managed and the park rangers were all very helpful. We even had deer stop by, which our dog was thrilled by! Even the bathrooms and trash receptacles were clean. Ten out of ten for viewing stars and proximity to the park. Highly recommend!
