The Junction Creek Campground was quiet, clean, and peaceful. Probably one of the cleanest vault toilet I've ever been to - and I've seen a lot. We stayed in Loop C, site 6 and it worked great for our large tent. The majority of the campsites were very spaced out and beautiful in the pine trees. I would absolutely stay here again.

Junction Creek Campground near Durango was a peaceful retreat nestled among tall pines. The campsites were spacious and well-maintained, offering a sense of privacy. Vault toilets were clean, and potable water was available, though there were no showers or dump stations. The nearby Colorado Trail provided excellent hiking opportunities. The gravel road leading to the campground was a bit rough, but manageable. Overall, it was a serene spot to unwind and enjoy nature.
