Location near National Park
The Great Sand Dunes Lodge is at the entrance of the Great Sand Dunes National Park, not in the town of Mosca. Look for the lodge sign at the 16-mile marker on Highway 150. Turn right and follow the signs uphill to the lodge. Nearby attractions include the Great Sand Dunes National Park, Sangre de Cristo Mountains, Cumbres and Toltec Scenic Railroad, Royal Gorge, and Zapata Falls.
Services and Information
The lodge provides all necessary dishes and utensils, as well as crock pots, for guests. Hummingbirds can be seen on the patio from late April to early September. Minimum 2-night stay for Memorial Day and Labor Day weekend. The lodge is not responsible for loss of money, jewelry, or valuables.
“As the closest lodging to the National Park, it distinguishes itself with a variety of accommodations, from standard motel rooms to RV sites. A key advantage is the on-site rental of sand sleds and boards, unavailable within the park itself. While the motel room prices may be a little high, the property's range of options and proximity make it a practical choice for exploring the dunes.”
