Fun location with lots of space

Went to the dunes for the first time in January 2023. I wasn't sure how it would go with two dogs. My younger always being full of energy and often a pain when on leash. My older working on her recovery from getting sick. However, I will say this was an excellent place to go. There is so much space for you to go your own way. We lots quite a few people but rarely actually was close to anyone. This allowed us to go at our extremely slow pace without holding anyone up while allowing my younger dog to be chill since no one was nearby. I did see a few dogs off leash, but again the place was so spread out that the dogs never came near. It can truly be tough at parts. We did a fraction of the dune but it was still breathtaking. Take your time and have fun. If you don't have a national park annual pass be aware you will need to pay the $25.00 entrance fee. Would I do it again? Absolutely!
