Probably one of the best and cleanest campgrounds I have visited in a while. The camp hosts were very friendly and made sure our site was presentable. There was an overbooking of my initial slot so they upgraded us and gave us free firewood. It was very quiet and beautiful. We tented camped but there was a lot of room for trailers if needed. Will definitely be planning another trip soon!

Gorgeous well spread out sites, especially in the upper loop. Upper loop also has Verizon service, anything below that is a dead zone. Last few miles of road is a bit washboardy and rough. About a 30 minute drive into Durango.
