Piñon Flats Campground is the only developed campground within Great Sand Dunes National Park, offering 88 sites at 8,175 feet elevation with direct access to Medano Creek and hiking trails into the dunes.

The campground features flush toilets, potable water, fire rings, and picnic tables at each site, though no hookups or showers are available.

Reservations are required and fill quickly, especially May-September; note that an entrance fee ($25 for 1-7 days) is separate from camping fees ($20-$80/night).
