Super helpful camp hosts! Site was a little difficult to back into and he really helped us so it wasn't stressful. Bathrooms are the cleanest pit toilets I have ever seen. So much to do without driving forever. We loved the shopping in Durango and Silverton.

This is a sweet forest campground! Very close to Durango with huge sites. It wasn't as close to Mesa Verde as I thought but cooler than it would have been by the park

Nice campground, well-maintained and immaculate restrooms! The camp hosts were very helpful and keep a good eye on the grounds. Each site is unique and all that I could see were in the trees. Very quiet campground. We enjoyed our two-night stay.

This campground is a beautiful and well run location. The bathrooms were very nice and had almost no bugs (rare for any campground in July). The hosts are nice and easy to deal with. The night we stayed, it was quiet and peaceful.

Hosts were fantastic. Dirt was washboard but very doable. No dump station Vault toilets were kept clean

Great location within 15-20 minutes of downtown Durango. Stayed in the E loop of the campground which has power. Campground was well maintained and in a very beautiful setting. Lots of hiking trails close.
