GuidePark has great clean facilities. Lots of shade trees, pickle ball court. Huge dog run area out front. And only a mile from Durango hot springs and just down the road from the Colorado Honey Distillery.
GuideWe had to overnight in Durango area for one night, on our way from Colorado to Arizona. The campground is clean, quiet, gorgeous, it is close to the highway though, we had a gorgeous spot with a view (so worth it). It has a pool, laundry, even a breakfast spot that is open on certain hours, times of the day. We did not get to experience it. You’re only 7 miles away (east) from Durango, which is a very amazing, cute small (walkable) city!
TravelerThe campground has a train that comes in from Durango once a day. It’s fun to watch and the mountain with the bridle vail waterfall. There’s a walking area behind the park as well. Just make sure you get a confirmation and it’s what you sign up for or you will be charged. In their mind they don’t make mistakes.
ScoutGoing east from Durango, you make a right turn on silver hills road. You will see the blm sign. Gravel road, fire pits. We stayed in a camper van at one of the first spots and had 5g internet with AT&T. Can hear highway noise
ScoutThe host is very friendly. It's a smaller campsite. It was not very busy when we were there...I liked that. There was plenty of firewood to collect in the area. It was $18 a night. My phone had some service. I liked that it was pretty quick to get to from Durango (about 30min).
GuideWe spent several nights here as we hiked the multiple 14ers. We took the train from Durango, which was an easy enough process getting in and out. The hike up was not bad at all. Multiple established camping areas with great shade. Plentiful water. Zero mobile coverage. No issues with bears, but the goats were very persistent.
ScoutWe reserved 6 nites here. Host B is in his 2 nd yr here and is a peach of a guy. All campsites are carefully raked and put in good shape - no ashes left in rings. Host sells .75 sq ft of firewood for $7 / bundle or 3 for $20. Good water hauled in from Durango and available at numerous spigots thruout camp. 2 very clean pit toilet bathroom facilities w/ 2 heads at each.
TravelerThis site is amazing, great staff willing to help and friendly. The bathrooms are very well kept and the upkeep of the park is great. They have wifi hotspots throughout the park so it works on all corners. The sites are well spaced out with grass on each side and big enough for a 38' fifthwheen with plenty of space to park full hookups and shade trees in some sites. The lake view spots are amazing backed right up to their private lake. Plenty of walking trails and areas to run with the pups. This place is 20 from durango but bayfield has plenty to do in town. Even though they state they are open year round on goodsam and other rv apps they ARE NOT.
