Summary

Junction Creek Campground is praised for its quiet, beautiful setting, well-spaced sites, and exceptionally clean bathrooms. Campers appreciate the campground's proximity to Durango and nearby hiking trails, along with friendly and helpful camp hosts. While some noted issues with privacy and site leveling, the overall experience is highly positive, making it a recommended destination for camping enthusiasts.
Spot was pretty easy to find, even after sunset. It was quiet and we didn’t even realize how many others were camped around us until the morning! Bathroom was clean for it being a permanent port-a-potty
One of our favorite spots in the state. Easy access to Durango but just remote enough to feel like you’re away from it all. Hosts are terrific and work hard to keep things clean and orderly. Great hiking and biking trail access for the more experienced. There was a large youth group some of the nights in a double site but they weren’t out of control.
Nice and clean grounds and facilities with an excellent host. Dear walked through the camp one day and very quiet and peaceful. Verizon just barely worked on Loop E while AT&T was intermittently working for simple texts.

Campsite is at end of road which offers additional privacy. Bathrooms and water spigot are within the camp. Dumpster in walking distance. The camp host even provided some fire wood when we arrived. Outstanding place to camp. 15 mins from Durango.
