Awesome Stay!
We had a great time on the property. Beautiful inside as well as the views on the outside. Only a short drive to Great Sand Dunes National Park. Would highly recommend and will try to visit again.

Amazing View
The view from Getaway at the Dunes was breathtakingly beautiful! The Dunes with Mount Herard behind it and a vast field of evening primrose blooming in the foreground was stunning. We thoroughly enjoyed making meals, watching (casting was easy) TV together and we slept very well. Google Maps worked for us and the gate entrance was simple.

Close to Dunes
10 minute drive to the dunes and nice location. The only thing I could think that needs improved is the appliances are rather noisy. At home my family runs the dishwasher / laundry at night but after the first night and how loud they were we changed to running them mid-day when we went out to the dunes.

Wonderful rental property
This is one of the best rental properties we have stayed at. The house was well appointed, good kitchen set up. Comfortable and clean. And the view from the outside of the great dunes and mountains were spectacular. With nice furniture set up for you to sit outside and enjoy the view whether with your morning coffee or watching the sunset.

Quiet & Cozy Getaway
Our family wanted to visit the Great Sand Dunes, and this home was the most perfect place to stay! The home was super clean and well-stocked to cook meals. Clean and comfortable beds, and a fire pit to enjoy the view. The views are unbeatable and so quiet; it’s as close to camping as possible with all the home comforts. We will be back!

Breathtaking and Beautiful
Everything in this home was updated and absolutely beautiful. The home had the most incredible views. We can see the dunes from the the deck. We enjoyed the hiking and hot springs but mostly the peaceful secluded area. What a find!!!
