### Nelson's Crash Pad, Great Sand Dunes, Camper/RV

Award Classic 27 Camper. Located in a private sparsely populated mountain community that is about 4 miles by car from The Great Sand Dunes National Park and about 2 miles from the Zapata Falls entrance. Beautiful views with amazing sunsets. Fire pit/grill/indoor dining/outdoor dining. Cold AC, heat, kitchen with oven/4 burner stove, microwave, dual sinks. Refrigerator/freezer, hot shower. AC and USB outlets. So much natural light. There is a 32 inch HD TV with Netflix and Amazon Prime- the TV sits across from the sofa so it is wonderfully positioned if you want to watch something. Clean, comfortable, functional. Peaceful and beautiful setting.  
The space  
27 foot camper with one bedroom (full size) and one sofa bed (twin) in a certified dark sky area. The sky can be mesmerizing. The camper is surrounded by mountains and the valley sits below. There are 2 zero gravity chairs which recline 170 degrees so that you can comfortably face the sky for amazing star gazing and relaxation (they include drink holders and adjustable head rests). The camper has a very functional kitchen and a booth style dining area. Well stocked kitchen with a variety of pots and pans, cooking utensils, and much more. Great for preparing meals. Organic freshly ground coffee provided as well as sugar and creamer for a nice cup of coffee in the morning (hot chocolate, mocha, and tea provided as well). Tea kettle and Malita (French press as well). Also, there is pancake mix/syrup/butter and organic oatmeal. Some condiments provided and several spices provided. Hot and cold water in the double kitchen sink, the bathroom sink and the shower. The bathroom utilizes a flushable portable toilet. Dimmable overhead lighting. Wi-Fi with the ability to stream video. The outdoor space has a table with chairs and a shade tent. There is a grill with an adjacent prep/serving table. A propane fire pit livens up the outdoor area. Many windows and 3 skylights provide abundant natural light. Powerful 13,500 BTU air conditioner. Drinking water is provided from a pristine mountain aquifer from our well which it put through reverse osmosis. Water from the tap is also delicious as it comes from a mountain aquifer via our well. Enjoy The Great Sand Dunes, Zapata Falls, hiking trails, mountains and wide open spaces.  
Other things to note  
Dogs are welcome at Nelson's Crash Pad. Our house is on the property and part of it is visible from the camper. The side of the house that is closest to the camper is unoccupied as it is only used for storage. There is a yurt on the property that may be occupied during your stay. The yurt is about 150 feet from the camper and there are trees and other vegetation separating the yurt from the camper. The large parking area is used by occupants of the yurt and by occupants of the camper. Smoking is only allowed outdoors (by the fire pit ect.). Please let me know if you plan on smoking so I can leave a professional grade cigarette disposal unit at the site.
