The views at this campground cannot be beat! Mountains in all directions, lake front, and incredible sunsets over the Great Sand Dunes. There's electric and a dump station but no water. We filled up at the Mosca pit stop about 20 minutes outside of the campground (for a donation). It's about a 25 minute drive to the entrance of the NP. But honestly for the peace and quiet and views at this campground it's worth it. You have to buy a CO fishing and wildlife permit to camp here. We purchased ours online then picked it up at an approved gas station. You can go into specified stores on the CO wildlife site and buy one in person if preferred. There is a host who checks permits. Came out to about $42 for 5 nights or $8.40 a night! If you want to see more of the campground we have a video on YouTube.
