I found out about this campground on the Internet, and I tent camped there in July 2007.

Describe your camping trip:

What a great campground. Friendly staff and very clean throughout. We had a great trip camping with kids along the creek. Tent area and camper area is separated, and the overall campground is outside of town and the surroundings are wonderful. The pool was great, and it is a great campground for kids to be able to ride bikes.
Pros: Cleanliness from the bathrooms to the outside. The staff is friendly, and the location couldn't be better. Highly recommend. Oh, don't forget the swimming pool (inground, large and heated).

Cons: none
Nearby attractions: Mesa Verde, Durango/Silverton Narrow Gauge Railroad, nightlife in downtown Durango, and ATV trail riding.

Further comments:

You want to check this campground out. We highly recommend. We will return on our next trip to Durango. Joe and Cheryl are great along with the staff.
