Site has no shade, on a slight slope. Short trail from the campground to the dunes. Clean restrooms (no showers).

This was a top-rate facility and very well run. Would definitely stay again.

Very clean bathrooms! Beautiful visitors center.
Bugs are bad while the creek is flowing so bring big spray. Early mornings are the best time to hike the dunes with kids.

This is a very nice campground. Bathrooms were clean and well supplied. Bring your own towel to dry your hands. Views of the dunes are available at some sites. I did notice that access to some sites are difficult as the pads are not angled to the one way road. Lots of pion jays and other birds and we had a herd of deer amble through the campground. There was access to a few hiking trails from the campground.

Very nice campground reasonable cost, sites for RV's are tight,smaller,and can be difficult to back trailer into. Overall enjoyed my time at Pinion Flats. Sand Dunes are incredible, a must see.

So peaceful and quiet! We loved renting sand sleds from Oasis down the road and playing on the dunes. The stars at night were amazing, and we saw a shooting star!

Not close enough to restrooms & no shade. Will not camp at #87 again.

We only spent one night but really enjoyed hiking part way up the dunes on a pleasant afternoon. Because of the pandemic, the Visitor Center was partially closed. That was a bit disappointing but understandable. Thanks for all you do!

I had site #1. It is directly beside the vault toilet. The strong smell from the toilet is most unpleasant. Would not stay there again.
