this site has a terrible approach to the picnic area. it would be untenable for older folks or for small children. there are no steps, only a large uneven rock to drop down approximately 2.5 feet. the other two entry ways are not accessible because they are the locations of the camper. one side has a rock wall that may be intended to approach the picnic area, but that is also unsafe and resulted in one of our children slipping and falling, resulting in a gnarly scratch on his knee and bruise on his chest. this entry makes it very hard to efficiently or safely bring things down to the picnic area/bear box as heavy things need to be given to someone already down by the person above. we found it frustrating and nerve wracking. i would not recommend this site to folks with mobility struggles or small children. otherwise it is GREAT! so much shade and a beautiful view.

We absolutely LOVE pion flats campground. They take great care of the sites, bathrooms and surrounding areas. The only complaint I have is that Everytime we have been able to get a reservation 6 months out, there is pretty much only one site available. When we arrive there are many sites (we saw at least 5 sites in just one loop) that were not being used but had been reserved. This is extremely frustrating and I wish they would go back to offering first come first serve sites so that we would be able to visit our favorite campground on a more consistent basis.

Quiet and clean campground. Site had a nice view of the dunes, and some shade, which seemed rare. Tight fit between the trees. Bug spray is a must!

The camp sites are too close, my site didn’t really have a spot for a tent. It felt really cramped.

Despite how busy it was for October during the week, I was impressed how clean the overall campground and restrooms were. Everyone there camping is was respectful of keeping safe distances and of the quiet times.

Great views of the dunes from our site. If you take dogs make sure you plan to be off the sand around 10am it gets a little hot for their paws.

Check out Gator World if you have time.

We had a great campsite with shade and a view. Sites weren't too close together. Bathrooms were clean with flush toilets. There was a sink for washing dishes near the bathrooms. Great hikes, one day on the dunes and the next on Mosca Pass.
My only criticism was the visitor center was crowded with people and no one wearing masks or physically distancing. Pretty sure 100% of those visitors weren't all vaccinated judging from the license plates in the parking lot.

Great campground! There was a bear in the area so they rangers were very adamant about leaving coolers and food in the bear boxes. The camp host was very friendly and the women’s restroom was clean. You did have to drive to the parking lot of the sand dunes if you wanted to bring shade and coolers out to the dunes. About a 3 minute drive. The mosquitos were brutal so bring all the deet.

Awesome park. Had a beautiful view of the sand dunes from campsite. Very comfortable.
Just wish hot showers were available for those of us camping and not using RVs.
