Summary: The park was just down the road! The home is lovely & perfect for a family. It is well stocked & very peaceful! We didn't stay long enough to take advantage of the games there or the grill, and it was a little too cold/windy to sit outside at the fire pit, but we did gaze at stars from the deck & they were beautiful! Note: there are 2 sets of instructions, one for "check in" with the keypad number for the actual door, and another set for "driving & parking instructions". Since I had a physical map & my phone, I thought I was set on the driving instructions & did not check these instructions out. However, the keypad number & location for the HOA electric fence is in those directions, so make sure to take a screen shot before you get there. The cell service is limited (as expected). Hope you enjoy it as much as we did!

Summary: It looked like the house was out in the middle of nowhere, and it was. But we were so close to the dunes, we could see it from the house. We had our supplies, so we were in good shape, and didn't need stores. The kitchen was very well supplied. Loved the postcards provided...it was a nice touch.

Summary: Amazing views of the dunes from the large deck. The kitchen is well furnished. A great place to unplug. My kids enjoyed the small dvd library, but consider bringing your own favorites given the lack of wifi and cable/ota tv.my kids really enjoyed the stream out back!

Summary: We have stayed in several homes through Expedia/VRBO and this one was not only the most clean, but also the best equipped. The towels and kitchen equipment were first rate. I always bring my frying pan and a few cooking utensils when we rent a house, but I didn't need any of them here.

Summary: There are lots of places to stay in the San Luis Valley but probably not many with this view! The view was amazing, the cabin was so cozy and quiet. Definitely recommend Dunes Rest! My husband and I were completely comfortable for our six-night stay.

Summary: Beautiful property. The scenery from the deck was outstanding. I love the flowering flora, and the proximity to the national park.The little telescope in the loft was an added plus. Kitchen had everything except a good ice tray.
