Near Great Sand Dunes National Park

Within a 60-minute drive from the Great Sand Dunes.

Welcome to the San Luis Valley; the highest Alpine Valley in the world! This campground sits close to the foothills of the Sangre de Cristo mountain range. You can also see the San Juan mountain range to the east in the distance. San Juans are part of the NW rim of the Continental Divide. Great Sand Dunes are visible from every site. With unlimited mountain views, beautiful starry night skies, come see the Milky Way, Eclipse, Meteor showers!!! Previously known as High Desert Ranch Campground, this land was originally part of a large ranch in the 1980s. The main ranch is still up and running but this parcel was used for many purposes over the years. In 2021, we were featured in USA Todays Ten Best for star gazing! My property has 360 degree mountains views with the Sangre de Cristo Mountain Range as our back yard. Nearby you can find many different trail systems for all kinds of outdoor enthusiasts. From hiking to jeeping, ATV or dirt biking and equestrians - you can find it all! You will be surrounded by ranch land and state land with Wildlife Refuge just two miles away. Accommodations for those with livestock, just make sure you chat in advance your initial message. Close to BLM, and National Forest as well as 3 hot springs within 20 miles and the Great Sand Dunes. We are still under construction and making changes often so bear with us while we continue to add and change things for the better!

This was a wonderful place to get away from it all. There are other campsites, but they are very well dispersed and being off-season. There were not many others there. You really got the sense that you were out in nature. You have 360° view of Mountains, changing weather patterns, mountain storms, etc. there’s a Dollar General close by, great Sand dunes Park nearby. But otherwise it was a real pleasure staying there and getting away from it all. Christine was very accommodating.

Campsite was great! Clean, spacious, har WiFi and a spout for drinking water. Site also had a picnic table and fire pit. There were beautiful views as well and less than an hour drive to sand dunes. I would recommend staying here!

Campsites are pretty small and on top of each other. Wifi doesn't reach to most of the campsites - you have to go close to the house/office, which makes sense but isn't really advertised. Site had trash on it when I arrived and the picnic table was half broken. Also unsure why they needed a signed release for my likeness. That's usually for marketing purposes but it seems strange given the only footage they have of me (hopefully) is from the security camera at the little hut where you sign it. Idk what other imagery of me they would have? I hope there wasn't other recording happening elsewhere or that they won't use it for weird internet stuff. Potapotty was adequately serviced. Great views of the mountains and the desert. Not the worst but not worth the price imo. Also believe the reviews about mosquitoes!! I've never encountered so many at one time. That's just nature for you in this area especially but be prepared.
