We stayed in a dome. No frill but met our needs. Very clean and staff was friendly and helpful. There were only two power outlets in the dome and both were used for the light and AC. Consider bringing a power strip. Bathroom was clean and had shampoo etc in them. You bring towels from the dome. There were 6-7 domes/tents, maybe 4-5 occupied, sharing 3 bathrooms and we never had to wait. Breakfast was pretty good with waffles, muffins, toasts, bagels, cereal, oatmeal, yogurt, fruit cups, etc. You can also rent a sand board at the office. Overall a nice experience.

Very incovenient situation by a female staff

The female check-in staff who took care of us at around 15:00 upon our arrival was terrible. She was not professional or courtious but rude not answering our questions abbreviating sharing information assuming we had heard what she had said to a guest in front of us. They should've had placed such a human to welcome their guests. The camping car was not funcy but OK.

The girl who started checking us in stopped to have a long conversation with another guest. I have had some health problems and was very tired from a long drive. We finally left with the key without the WiFi password which wasn’t posted in the room. She was very inconsiderate and used poor judgment. She could have completed our business in a few moments then attended to the other guest.

Surrounding Great Sand Dunes was very convenient. The hummingbird feeders near our room, was one of the highlights as there were many birds so close to us, as we looked over the sand dune backdrop. Hostess at front desk filled the feeders up as soon as we told her they are running out of feeder food. The restaurant just down the hill was excellent, with great staff and great food. We had a great time staying at the Great Sand Dune Lodge.

In the photos, it made it seem like the dome was uncovered and you could see the stars, but you cannot. Also, the address listed in expedia is for the wrong place to go (the visitors center)
