Reasonable prices & open during the winter.
The lake is beautiful and a great trail network around the camp, good for trail running.
Traveler
Clean, hot showers and large laundry room.
One of the more beautiful RV sites, sitting along the silverton & Durango tourist train.
However given we don’t even plug in, $78 including tax is too expensive for us.
Traveler
Easy drive up 160 from Pagosa. Pitched the tent in the afternoon and headed to town for a soak.
Room for a couple cars and several tents. Not PERFECTLY flat for the tent-folk.
View is killer - we hit it at about peak color.
ScoutThis is a National Forests campground, and many of the sites have electricity, but nothing else. The sites are reasonably graded gravel sites. Some are pull-thru while others are back-in.
Ranger
We spent two nights here. I think I would’ve chosen the loop with campsites 1 through 19 instead of the other loop that we stayed at. We were in campsite 26 and it was a little difficult to get our trailer into it because we had to back uphill. Also, the other loop most likely would have a view overlooking the lake more. The showers were very nice and they do have a dump station. My only complaint I guess would be the road in from the main highway was pretty rough and had lots of potholes. That road is about 17 miles long.

I value space, privacy, value and and quality of the area. This is a old campground purchased by a multi park company. It is on a twisty, multi curved 2 lane about 7 miles from downtown Durango. It is in what is/was a beautiful small canyon with numerous aspen and other trees. It has a creek which flows part of the year. That said, it is crowded, with your neighbors sewer connection next to your picnic table. The spaces are short. If your RV/toad or travel trailer plus pickup is much over 48 feet, you'll be out in the road. They WILL put you in too small a space. My pickup, parked overnight was damaged by someone trying to make the too tight turn at the end of the campground. The beauty of the place is totally compromised by not just the rv spaces but multiple cabins dotting the hills around and tent sites, etc. etc. If you value quality of experience , this is not the place for you.
ScoutWe did 4 campgrounds during our trip in Colorado this summer. This one was the best: very clean, warm welcome, not that expensive… The Durango & Silverton train passes through the camp, it’s so fun. And you can the free trolley to go downtown Durango, very convenient. Thank you !
ScoutThe tent space#2 that we stayed in was barely a site. Carved out of the slope, the quite small site was not flat, limiting the way we could sleep.
The ground was covered with coarse wood chips– hardly an ideal surface to place a tent on. Both#1 and#3 sites seemed to be in the middle of the drive, making you feel like you were intruding just to leave the site.
#1 was also small and delineated with the same wood chips on the ground. Glad we didn’t get stuck there.
The larger RV/camper sites appeared to be quite nice. The pool was a welcome benefit.
Traveler
A very nice campground with first-come, first-served sites for $20 a night. The internet reception ranges from okay to excellent, depending on the site. The pit toilets are impeccable – they really couldn't be cleaner. Unfortunately, there is no water or trash station. However, you can refill portable water affordably at the Hydration Station in Durango or for free at the Durango Montessori School. I think $20 is a bit too expensive for the campground, but it is still appealing due to its clean pit toilets and very nice sites.
GuideStayed for 2 nights. Right next to Hermosa Creek trail. Such a beautiful place. The bathrooms are clean, the camp host is an awesome guy. Would definitely stay again.
GuideNice area, seems like 3+ camping areas, I stayed here for about 4 days. Some fire pits and good views on the drive up. Road was not busy. Verizon signal was spotty. Most of the time I did not have any signal.
Scout
Great place lots of ruins and s nights to see.
Scout
I've stayed here for decades now. It's changed. The road is better and so more big RVs and trailers come up, run the generators for hours if not all day long. The peacefulness has gone. I don't recommend it on the weekends or holidays but otherwise, lovely location. Best for 25 ft max rigs if you do come up, the spaces aren't big but the views are!
Guide
Right off of the highway, and that means you can hear said highway. Friendly host.
Scout
This place has everything you need to recharge and resupply before getting back out Overland.
GuideWe stayed on the river. Large camp sites. Beautiful sights to see. Very close to atv trails at east fork if it is full. But will have drive there. 10min drive
RangerWe stopped to get out of the heat wave and visit durango. Full Hookups, emptied and reloaded water tanks, did laundry, swimming pool, great showers, 1/4 mi to the park for river accees for tubing. Super friendly staff
ScoutA small but mighty campground… pull thru, back in and tent camping. Site 16 is the best…it doesn’t have sewer but you basically have a double site to your self. They offer 10% military discount…excellent WiFi, a small pool, bath house and laundromat… it’s about average price for area…($150ish) for mid week stay….very quiet…no playground for kids. Oh there is also a small stream that runs thru .
TravelerWe had a great view, plenty of space and privacy. Close enough to head to Pagosa for a soak.
ScoutI'm glad you found the information about Teal Campground helpful! It indeed sounds like a wonderful place to enjoy nature and take in some beautiful views. The combination of the scenic setting by Williams Creek Reservoir and the amenities provided makes it an attractive option for campers. The shade from ponderosa trees and the availability of drinkable water, garbage collection, and vault toilets certainly add to the convenience and comfort of the camping experience.
Regards,
Akshay
ScoutHello
It sounds like a great place to go camping. Teal Campground! The setting, which looks out over Williams Creek Reservoir, needs to provide breathtaking vistas. It appears to be a pleasant and attractive location with 16 first-come, first-served spots with some shade provided by ponderosa trees. It makes camping more convenient to know that amenities like drinkable water, garbage collection, and vault toilets are available. I appreciate you sharing this evaluation.
Regards

TravelerStayed at site 41 where the trees block most of the sun and the site itself is pretty level. Also the site had electricity hook up but it seems turned off. Payed 13 dollars(September 9 is winter camping)for one night, but if you have a Military, Senior. Service Pass (they won’t take American the Beautiful Annual Pass) you can get half off the prices. AT&T service here is in and out, but near the pay station and east side of the lake near site 42 you can get good service. Enough to watch YouTube videos. Fishing is decent here
ScoutThe campground rates drop to $13/night starting in mid September for the winter. Most bathrooms are closed and water spigots are off. The sites are level and well maintained in a beautiful tree covered area. Road is fine for low clearance vehicles.
