Can't beat the view!

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

Location, Location, Location Ssys it All

Location is everything in this case. Sitting right on the edge of the Great Sand Dunes National Park, this place offers the closest view of the dunes and mountains from the room’s patio. Other than camping in the park, this is the only good option. We loved sitting on the patio with a glass of wine watching the sunset as it cast shadows in the dunes. The room was comfortable and clean. Sad to say the only dinner option was a cheese Papa Murphy’s pizza to take back to our room. Oh well, we weren’t going to drive a long way to a restaurant somewhere. Breakfast was included: adequate choices of grab and go items - muffins, toasted bagel, hard boiled eggs, make your own waffles, yogurt, coffee, juice. Again we sat on the patio watching the dunes change as the sun rose. We had a great time here!

If you’re looking to be close to Great sand Dunes NP this is as close as you can get without actually being on the dunes, It’s only a 5min drive. We stayed in a Geo Dome, which was clean and also had a pretty comfortable bed. The Oasis also has really good food as well, I can’t speak to lunch but the breakfast was really great. All in all if you’re visiting the park this is the only place you should consider staying it will make your trip more enjoyable.

Great Location!

Very nice staff. Really clean dome and bathroom. I didnt love going out at 4am to use the restroom, but I did enjoy seeing all the stars I couldn't see earlier due to cloud cover. Tried the geodome since it was the only place i could find right outside the national park that was reasonably priced. Comfy bed. Breakfast layout was wonderful!

You pay for the view and it is worth it. The rooms are clean but outdated. We had tons of live bugs in the room and asked for a flyswatter. They gave us Raid, which worked but was not optimum. Location is great near the park. We loved the hummingbirds and the star views at night.
