My husband and I stayed here 3 nights with our small camper. Easy pull-through sites with full hookups. This campsite is located in a canyon with plenty of shade trees. It was very quiet and nice here. Staff were friendly. Bathrooms VERY clean! We liked that it was only a few minutes from Durango. Great motorcycle riding out here. They have laundry facilities, a dog run, playground, yard games, and a pool. We would definitely stay here again if we're ever back in the area again! The only tiny complaint I have is the wifi didn't work. It had strong signal, just wouldn't connect. We couldn't figure it out but it wasn't a big deal not to have it because we still got 4g.

This is my second year visiting this campground and both times have been fantastic! The campground is nestled in a beautiful mountain canyon with great shade trees at all campsites. The owners and staff are amazing and very helpful and the grounds and bathhouse are well kept and very clean. There is a great pool and playground for the kids and a grassy dog park. The staff can point you to some stellar mountain biking, hiking, fishing and boating all within just a few miles of the campground. Located only 5 miles west of Durango I can't say enough about this place. I'll be back next year!

Great outdoor experience at this campground. The access to the area attractions were convenient. Park was well maintained with grassy areas, blacktop roads. Aspen and Pine growing up the mountain side with views!! Our site was large with privacy, big rig sites were closer to each other but still had privacy on patio side.. Beautiful pool! Staff very genuine and helpful, on the premises working. Hot spots for wifi near office and laundry, need a booster at site. Highly recommend park.

Juniper and camp hosts work hard to give you a great experience. She is friendly, helpful and makes you feel like a special guest. When you pull in she will furnish you with whatever you need and wants to make sure you are satisfied with your stay. We stayed there 6 weeks this summer and hope to go back soon...

This is a great place to waste your money if you like loud, crowded spaces and no help, service or assistance. Management is nearly impossible to get a hold of and are absolutely willing to take your money and provide no assistance. My arrival was extremely confusing and no employees were around to assist. I was even insulted by the management in an email for not seeing the designated area for picking up my key. The campground was loud until 12pm and had children walking up into camp at 2am. I contacted the management to let them know of my disappointment and to request a refund for my last two nights as they claimed the campground to be quiet and comfortable. I was perfectly fine with paying a cleaning deposit and the night I stayed and was directly told that I would receive no refund, apology or assistance. Do not trust the management at this location. They purposefully have office hours of 3pm-7pm to avoid people and are virtually impossible to get a hold of when needed. They are absolutely okay with ripping off completely dissatisfied customers. Buyer beware. UPDATE: The campground owner has given me a no trespassing notice on top of not refunding my last two nights after leaving this review. Not only will they take your money, they will leave you with no place to stay.
