Definitely recommend this resort as at least a two (2) night base camp for your ultimate planned NP excursion. Arrive/check-in then rent your Sand Boards for your next day use at the NP (and arrive early at the NP before the sand gets too hot!). After your Sand Dunes park play, return to this resort to unwind and relax in a natural, therapeutic spa fashion. Be aware: There is good, tasty food on-site (breakast, lunch and dinner) and the selection is varied but not elegant! And, there is no other food locations in the area. BYOB and mixers - you can buy ice upon arrival. Finally, get to the Adult Greenhouse before 11am to secure a lounge chair as there is not many. Kudos to all the facility and concession personnel, most of whom live nearby, that do their utmost to ensure that your stay is memorable.

Spindrift is a cute, colorful shop right on the main street through Blanca. We ordered them online a few days before, but there were plenty of boards when we arrived. The large group in front of us seemed to be walk ins and received boards with no issue. Amy greeted us and got us set up with our boards and sled. We had three different style of boards for different riding experiences. She gave us all fun "jobs" on the dunes and thorough instructions. We all agreed the world needs more Amys. She is really pleasant, welcoming, and a wonderful individual. The dunes are another 30 minute drive from Blanca, but well worth it to get the quality and variety of boards and sled versus what you can get at the store right by the Dunes. The prices were half of that store and the boards are superior in every way. Useful tip Amy gave us - wear socks with your sandals or crocs. That sand temperature in the summer is no joke and can burn your feet fast. Just rock the socks! I highly recommend Spindrift to anyone looking to do sand boarding or sledding!

What an amazing experience did we have visiting this awesome place…read more My friend is visiting for a few days and we decided to go to the Grand Sand Dunes to explore, and while we were at it we decided to experience sand surfing. To sand surf you require special equipment so we stopped here to get what we needed. Little did we know, we got way more than just the equipment. The beautiful being that greeted us (the owner herself!)at the store was so warm and inviting. She gave us pointers on how to sand surf, she explained the whole process of how to properly use the board, the waxing method, lots of kisses from Bella (the cute doggy that was with her), and just an amazing vibe. The value of the gear rental is very affordable, but the value of the whole experience has no price. Thank you so much for your awesome, we had a fantastic day thanks to your expertise and wonderful vibration!

If you hit a bad shot, with it being so wide open, most people can get back on track pretty easily. The big plus to this course is that you can spank that little white ball and it will fly at this altitude! It can really help boost your ego! Brought my relatives here and they loved this little course. My little nephew really loved how far he could hit his golf balls! That was worth it's weight in gold! Now the course is north west of downtown Monte Vista and is a little tough to find, but much easer to use your GPS off of you smart phone. Fun little course!
