Ramble welcomes you to our private campground - Ramble at Great Sand Dunes National Park! The location is strikingly beautiful and vast: 640 acres of rolling sand dunes nestled up against the Sangre de Cristo Mountains at 7,550 feet. This campground is just a 30 minute drive to the entrance of the Great Sand Dunes National Park and Preserve, where you can hike dunes up to 750 feet tall. It's also at the base of Colorado's fourth tallest mountain, 14,345-foot Blanca Peak. Ramble is a dog friendly campground so bring your furry friends. There is a pet leash hook for you to link up your dog at each site. The Welcome Center will be the first place you'll stop, which includes an interactive photo opportunity, our park map, and informative and interesting information about the local community and surrounding region. Just a short distance from every campsite is our bathhouse -- thoughtfully designed with private bathrooms, showers, and a pet rinse area. It also includes a QR-code-accessible mini store for easy purchases of firewood, toiletries and Ramble merchandise. Inside the bathrooms you’ll find flushing toilets, toilet paper, seat protectors, fold down changing tables, sinks, hand soap, hooks, mirrors, soft lighting, and locking doors. On the side of the bathhouse are our open air concept shower stalls complete with hot water, benches, towel hooks and complimentary body wash and shampoo. The dump station is located just past the bathhouse and can accommodate disposal of sewage, waste water and includes a spigot for easy clean up. This station is complementary to Ramble guests. All of our campsites are purposefully spread apart to give every group maximum privacy and spaciousness. Please refer to the campground map when making multi-site reservations and expect 100 to 250 feet walking distance between adjacent sites. As far as activities go, there’s plenty to do. Rent a bike or bring your own -- we’ve got our very own three mile gravel path for you to shred that provides direct access points to local bike and Bureau of Land Management trails. There is also a 40 acre, 9-hole disc golf course perfect for all levels onsite. Horseshoe pits, corn hole tables, board games, and other activities are also available. And if that’s not enough, attractions in San Luis Valley, Great Sand Dunes National Park, Medano Creek, Zapata Falls, and Hooper Pool are all just a short drive away. Ramble at Great Sand Dunes falls within the IDA International Dark Sky Park region, so be prepared to enjoy some ridiculously starry nights. If it gets too dark, our entire campground utilizes thoughtfully designed lighting that won’t detract from nature’s light show. So bring the dog, kids, family and friends -- or enjoy the awesomeness solo. Welcome to camping the way you've always wanted it to be.

Adventure #25

Awesome camping spot. It felt rustic but had plenty of amenities to give a "glamping" vibe as well. The couple that was there when we stayed was Jeff and his wife, they were amazing. It was extremely windy when we got there and they helped us put up our tent and even gave us some extra tent suspensions to stabilize the tent in the wind. I would definitely camp here again!

Ramble #12

Stayed in #12 instead of #3 which I would highly recommend because of location-close to bathroom! Amenities were well thought out and plentiful.

Great campsite!

Ramble is a really nice off grid campground close to great sand dunes national park. The hosts were super kind and made it a point to welcome us. We arrived late and really appreciated the lit walkways to the bathroom. The shared facilities (bathrooms, showers) were clean as well!

Fun adventure

. Ramble is an innovative way to camp, in 360 degrees of astonishing natural beauty combined with thoughtful and quirky features: from sturdy wagons to transport your stuff to your well-designed site along a path marked out with solar lights, to a fun light show in the outhouse that actually has running water. . The camp host was super personable and helpful. The extra features at camp like the multi-use path and quality bath supplies in the outdoor showers were delightful surprises. The awesome Great Sand Dunes National park is about a half hour drive from Ramble. I definitely would stay at Rambles again
