This was a unique place with a wonderful view of the Great Sand Dunes. Our room was clean and comfortable. The closest restaurants were 30 minutes away, so plan accordingly.

The room was simple but spacious and had everything we needed. The complementary to-go breakfast offered way more foods than expected which was great! The close location to the Sand Dunes made visiting the park easy!
Room was clean, the staff was very friendly and helpful. I liked that a grab and go breakfast was offered. The only restaurant near the lodge was closed for the season.
Staff were friendly and check in/out was quick. We stayed in the dome. Nights were cool so there was a heater (air conditioner for summer). Bath houses were clean and they provided towels and mat in the dome. The lobby had pizza for dinner (Papa Murphy's and an oven to cook it in). Must be cooked by 7pm when office closes. Breakfast was provided with waffles, coffee, tea, single serve pastries, and juice. They also rent sand boards/sleds
Can't beat the view! Grounds were pet friendly so my puppers got to walk up through the tent camping area which offered some great views of the dunes.
We stayed in a dome with magnificent views of the Sand Dunes. The space was clean, bed comfortable and heating/cooling worked well. The bathrooms were clean and private. Our only suggestion is to maybe add a small table. Since we were almost 40 minutes from town, we brought our own food in. A table would have been helpful.
As close as you can get to Great Dunes. Surprising breakfast bar for a motel has a waffle machine.
Motel rents sand sleds and store at the bottom of the drive rents sand boards.
I booked a GS Dome, thinking there was a bathroom inside the dome to use which there was not, and apparently there were no other rooms available, even though there were empty spaces in the middle of the night in front of several rooms, they put me in a travel trailer that they charge
