Dumont Camping Grounds

Dune buggies running the sand at Dumont Dunes set the tone here. This BLM-managed OHV area sits a couple miles off the main road on gravel, with pit toilets on-site but no water or hookups. Fees run $30 per night, paid at a kiosk. Weekdays tend to be quiet; weekends draw larger crowds. Campers exploring the region can also find campgrounds around Tecopa or check out Ibex Dunes to the west.

Incredible Find! Sand Dunes

We left Death Valley and needed a place to crash with two small kids and an RV, we saw some dunes with a couple campers on a ridge and decided to check it out. It’s actually BLM land for OHV vehicles which meant loads of fun watching dune buggies on the dunes, tons of space and incredible night skies! $30 a night paid via a kiosk. A couple miles on gravel road take you up to the dunes. Pit toilets sprinkled about. No water or hookups. Big trash bins, I think this place must be hopping on the weekends. We were there on Wednesday and there was no one around.
