Campground was very well laid out and clean. However, we did not use the toilet facilities, therefore I cannot vouch for that. We love the nature experience.

Nice, forested setting. Very clean pit toilets. Large campsites with lots of space in between them. We were in a tent but there would have been plenty of room for a trailer along with our truck.

What a great campground in the hills west of Durango. Pleasantly surprised as to how quiet the area was, cleanliness of facilities and site. Our site was level, picnic table set down the hill a little. Zero cell reception for ATT

Campsite, bathrooms were super clean. Great shade in most spots. Would definitely recommend. Absolute beautiful area right next to the Colorado trail. We were in a van and had no problem leveling.
