          Great Dunes and Perfect Pit Stop

          I always stop here on my to North TX from Southern New Mexico. Gorgeous dunes and sunrises and sunsets from anywhere at this camp. The bathrooms are always super clean and there are even showers!

          Unique Spot Among the Dunes

          A wonderfully unique campground amongst the dunes. Besides boondocking in the desert I'm not sure of very many other places where you can do that. Facilities are acceptable, nothing really to complain about. Had a sandstorm whip through our last couple days and that was rough, not only was it hard to be outside, but the dunes encroached on certain sites, including ours. But we survived just fine and it was cool experience!

          Super cool place to

          Well, I normally mark down campsite for having the spaces too close together. This park does not really have the options for white separation between sites. The scenery is stunning and beautiful pull through and back in sit, as well as electricity and water facilities are excellent. Well maintained in the showers are nice.

          Great!

          Stayed 3 nights for free. Donations accepted. 5 sites available on a first come, first serve basis. Used 30 amp and water hook ups. 50 amp also available. Trash and waste disposal on site too. City park a block away. Clean and safe. Chamber personnel are welcoming and kind.

          Outstanding State Park

          This park is very cool. It’s not as interesting as White Sands or Great Sand Dunes, but what it does have that those National Parks don’t is the ability to camp right on the dunes. Spectacular sunsets and night skies.

          Sandy Oasis

          Great spot in what seems to be an area without a lot of camping. Stayed one night passing through. A bit windy. Super close to interstate and train, but noise wasn't an issue. Super clean facilities. Gorgeous dunes. The sunrise and sunsets are special!

          Interesting place

          Stayed one night at this campground located just off I20. In a nutshell, It is like camping at the beach without the ocean. Strong winds and sand dunes everywhere! Fun for kids to slide down the dunes. No shade. Was an interesting stopover.

          Nice staff however lots are small and cramped

          Not bad for just an overnight stay, however the lots are small. Had a back-in site. Staff escorted me to the site and helped me back in (which was very nice), however was right by the road. The main part of the park looked very nice, but this was like the overflows area.

          Sweet Little Campground

          Lovely lake with FREE three day parking, mini water play area, vault potties, playground and bike paths galore. There is some medium road noise that we found to be of no consequence

          Quite campground

          Nice and quite campground. Sand dunes are cool and o see but hard to walk in with the sand so soft. Sites are spacious and have a picnic table. Good for a day or 2 stay. Only downside is no sewer hookup at site but does have a dump station close by.

          Great!

          Very friendly and welcoming staff, very level spots, bathroom was clean and upscale, and it was an overall quiet environment. As they have mailboxes and it’s close to a grocery store, it’s somewhere I would stay for a longer period as well to check out more of Woody Harrelson’s hometown ☺️✌️

          This is Texas!?

          Reserved at spot at Monahan's Sandhills just because it was a good stopping place on our way from Dallas to Big Bend. I didn't do much research and didn't know what to expect (honestly, my expectations were low, with all of the drilling activity going on in the Permian Basin). When we pulled in to the campground from I-20 I was shocked by the beauty of it. 

          In October 2022, the visitor center was closed for renovations but I think it will be really nice once it's finished. The campsites were pretty well spread out and the facilities were good. But I couldn't get over how unique the landscape was. Definitely a hidden gem. Perfect pit-stop on the way to Big Bend but would also be a great place to stay for a few days.

          Monahans Sandhills State Park Campground

          Sand dunes in Texas?!

          General: Small (25-site) campground in one loop. Temporary park headquarters as the huge visitor center at the entrance was under construction when we were there. 

          Site Quality: Sites have paved driveways, covered picnic shelters, bbq, electric hookup, and water a spigot. Some sites are back-in and some pull-through. We watched some larger rigs try and fit into the back-in sites, which are smaller than the pull-throughs. Our site (25) seemed to have two picnic tables and two BBQs (there were some on the other side for the site next to us so not sure why there were two in our site unless two campers would come together?) 

          Bathhouse: There is one all-in-one and one regular restroom with two additional showers (and a connecting door between them. Hot water and soap dispensers but no paper towels. The showers were incredible – hot water, great water pressure, and clean. One of the best campground showers I have ever had! 

          Activities: Explore the dunes! There are no designated paths; you are free to climb the dunes and explore. Saucers are available to rent for $6 and wax for $1. The sunsets are beautiful. The constantly shifting sand makes beautiful patterns and great photographs. If the moon is not full, night sky photography. 

          We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here exploring the dunes (and the incredible shower!).

          No shaded area, a bit pricey for what you get

          $50 a night with full hookup, but a little pricey in my opinion for what you get. No shaded area. Does have a pool and laundry area. Roses BBQ within 6 minutes away was good. Site was pull through. There are long term campers.

          Unique stay

          This is kinda out there with not a lot around, but we went for the experience of the sand so it didn’t bother us. the sandhills were a lot of fun and you can rent sleds to slide down the hills. Get ready to have sand everywhere though!

          Clean showers, laundry too. Campsite is cramped though.

          We came here as it was late I’m the day and we had nowhere to stay for the night. This KOA had plenty of spots and some laundry machines and shower which was awesome.

          It’s like a typical RV park, very close quarters. The facilities are clean, and it has a dog park too.

          The site is right off of the highway and has plenty of traffic, so be prepared for lots of noise around. $40/night is what we paid.

          Small but fun!

          This park was very interesting. The sand dunes are massive, the sunsets were gorgeous, and the sites decent sized. It was well managed, clean and very sandy (expected, since its in the sand dunes),
