Durango North Riverside

Tara Crosby

We met up with some family members who were on a cross country trip over the summer and we decided to stay here. It's a really great location on the river. We had a riverfront spot and sitting listening to the river was peaceful. The bathrooms/showers were clean and in good working order, the pool was a nice amenity and it was great having a café on site so we didn't have to cook dinner the night we arrived. The staff is friendly and accommodating. It's a quick drive to Durango and the surrounding area. It is an RV park so sites are close and it was a popular place to be in July. However we knew and expected that to be the case but its location and amenities far outweighed being a little close to our neighbors. Would definitely stay again.

Excellent RV park !! Gorgeous riverside lots. Tho all the other lots are still nice, shaded and close to river. Multiple bathhouses not only makes it convenient but the facilities themselves are super nice. Close to downtown Durango but far enough to just hear the sound of the river at night. Very nice retreat! Paula was lovely and returned my call within 15/20 minutes as we were searching for a place for the night.

JW is fantastic, greatly exceeded our expectations! We did a tent camping trip, our site (108) had running water and electric, which was amazing. Just a short walk to the showers and restrooms, which were also amazing. There is a dishwashing station attached to the restrooms, which was fantastic, especially since we were in a tent. Staff was wonderful and picked up our trash withing minutes every time we put it on the street. We were visited by and woken up several nights by raccoons rooting through our pots and pans on the picnic table, so don't leave any food out, especially at night. We are planning to stay here again!! This place is awesome.

We hosted a family reunion here in July 2024. The resort staff were fantastic to work with and all were very friendly. We were able to use the patio area for a family potluck dinner, and the resort staff even loaned us a laptop projector for a slide show! All at the last minute no less. The only complaint I heard about the place from our group was of a need for more towels and wash cloths for the cabin dwellers. Otherwise, a fantastic place and the location was ideal!

The main lady who runs the front desk is not kind at all. We got a cabin and a tent spot on the back of the property. When we got to our cabin the towels were dirty and so was the kitchen. The kitchen didn't bother us too badly we wiped it down quickly with Clorox wipes but still frustrating. We went up to the office to get new towels and she was not very keen on giving us towels. I explained that our towels were covered in dirt and she told me that they had a laundry area where we could wash them. This obviously was not very kind for multiple reason. The laundry mat was expensive as well and I went back and forth with her for like 10 minute before she would give us new towels. She did not treat me and my fiance very nice at all and everytime we went up there whether it was to buy ice, ask a question, or get change for the game room she was very condescending to us. The electricity went out in our cabin and it was really frustrating. We were with our family for a reunion and our cabin was right on the property line and they kept yelling at everyone for taking a single step over the property line. Half of our family wasn't informed about the property line (as there are no signs whatsoever marking it) and they made my young cousin cry because he was playing on the log that separated the property. Totally unnecessary to yell at a 3 year old and make him cry when he wasn't even on the private property. They also refused to give any of us more toilet paper or towels after 5 days. I understand the towels because they don’t have a lot of staff or resources (at least that is what we were told) but toilet paper??? I had fun because I was with my family and we weren't at the campground much but I will not be back.

So, due to our vacation being a family vacation, and trying to get everyone on the same page, my attempt at reserving a campground were relatively "last minute". Plus, I was seeking two campsites next to each other. Due to the low ratings, this was the last place I checked. This review is delayed because selfishly, didn't want to share my little secret. But realistically, there's a good chance I may never get back to Colorado, so..... here's the truth: Upon arrival, as in pulling into the place for the first time, I thought surely I was at the wrong place. No way such a beautiful, upscale appearing establishment had such a low rating. It was in fact, correct. Upon setting up, the owner Scott and his wife were incredibly helpful and kind. The campground itself beautiful, well kept and clean. As surreal as being in the state of Colorado itself. The location is excellent, set along the river, near the hot spring. And centrally located for travel to both durango and silverton/ouray. So if you've read this far, absolutely make that reservation. Take advantage of what I found to be a great kept secret.

This RV park should have more stars. The staff was friendly and very helpful in choosing a site. The views were magnificent. This is a quiet and relaxing place.

Nice place, friendly staff. Elk bugles all night and fast internet.

First timers at an RV park so we didn't know what to expect- When we pulled in the first thing I saw was the swimming pool so I was super excited! Everything looked so pretty, from the flowers to the fresh cut grass. The lady at the check in desk was helpful & friendly. THE BATHROOMS WERE CLEAN!! We enjoyed our stay and will definitely come back the next time we're in Durango.

Let me start by saying I almost always read reviews and consider them before staying anywhere.. we booked a last minute trip and I did not do that this time. And I’m so glad I didn’t! I have no idea how Durango Riverside only has three stars!!! From the moment we pulled in our stay was lovely. The hosts were super friendly and personable. The grounds are really clean and well kept! The pool sparkled! There is a small game room, bath houses, small convenience store… everything was perfect! We liked being out of town but it is definitely convenient to downtown and served us well in our hiking and boating adventures! We WILL return here!
