While kind of on the pricier side for campgrounds I really enjoyed my 2 nights there in early Oct 24. Easy access to get on the road to the cliff dwellings early in the day, flush bathrooms, tons of sites, trails nearby, a little center with a store, cafe, gas, and most importantly showers.
They let you pick your site which is nice so I got a site with a flat spot for my rooftop tent, but some sites are definately more geared to tent camping, but there are tons of site options.
Would stay again.
ScoutTwo nights here. Boondocks go, no water needed, but great location, restrooms nearby. Very peaceful.
Traveler
Very well maintained campground. Stayed in tent. Bathroom and shower new and very clean. Excellent views.

From the time we pulled into the campground, full of grass with huge trees, we felt at home. We had a warm greeting and received a welcome gift with yummy treats and fresh eggs. We were led to our spot that backed up to a creek. There was a fire pit, fire wood, bbq, table and chair swing at the camp spot. Also included are free laundry facilities, movies on a big screen (popcorn included) and we were lucky enough to have a band play one day and a solo guitarist another. Scott goes out of his way to make you comfortable. It was raining when we were watching the band play, he brought us an umbrella to use, very thoughtful. We would recommend this place to everyone, dog friendly, kid friendly, with a play area for both. There are nice tent camping spots as well.

Made a Rez 5 months ago and didn’t see the fine print cancellation policy stating 14 days out no refund. I had to make new plans due to unforeseen circumstances and called to find out that 13 days out is too bad for me. Not any concessions or credits for future stays, nada zilch. So for a slow time of year they just print money hoping no sees their fine print. I’m a business man and I’ve always seen rules as an opportunity to make someone’s day not motivation to make negative reviews. Maybe I’m old school but there was zero expense on their part and 5 months of cash holding for them. I guess their business is doing so well that they send people the other direction when looking for a place to stay

This is not desert Rose campground but Morris campground. An old KOA from the '70s. Very well maintained and clean. Very friendly staff and helpful. Would stay again.
ScoutThis rv is a lovely oasis for humans and dogs. Scott the host’s mission is to make sure everyone has a great stay.
GuideDon’t let the dilapidated mobile home near the entrance scare you away. This place is super well maintained. Every site is well thought out and has great hookups. I thought a plug water and sewer was pretty uniform. Our site had a pedestal with 20/30/50 amp and then another with 30 20 feet further into the site. Lots of shade. The sites along the south edge of the property have amazing views of the Cortez valley and Sleeping Ute Mountain. Really nice communal fire pit, dog park and some trails too. Some sites have a beautiful brick fire ring too.
GuideFine for a night. Didn’t think it was anything special but there are showers. Good price

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.

Lovely little rv park just outside of town. Clean bathrooms, pool, little trail to walk to stretch your legs and well priced. 24 hr laundromat and not overcrowded. With as many empty spaces as they had, you’d think they wouldn’t have needed to put some rvs so close together.
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.
TravelerScott, the Manager is such a nice guy. He goes out of his way to make everyone happy. The park is clean and well maintained. Lots of grassy areas for kids and dogs. Lots of trees and peacefulness. Full electric water and waste hookups. Free Laundry, Shower rooms and bathrooms in the center of the park. A small fenced grass dog park. A nice little store with plenty of necessities. Just 1 hour South of Telluride and 1 hour West of Durango.
ScoutMy family and I have been to so many different campgrounds over the years and this one was the worst one I've ever seen. When we got there the place was filled with signs that basically said children couldn't do anything or only registered guests can do this. They also advertise putt putt but they had a tree that hung over one of the holes 2 feet off the ground making it almost impossible to play. As we got there a thunder storm was coming in making us uncomfortable setting up a tent. When we asked about switching to a cabin she told us it was a 2 night minimum and didn't even ask if we wanted to pay for 2 nights even though the cabins were completely empty. We ended up asking if we could car camp and she was very hesitant to even let us. When we got to our site it was so uneven and unmaintained that we couldn't even set up a tent if we wanted. There was also barely any gravel and with the rain car camping was a no. Even though we couldn't stay there because of the conditions she refused to give us a refund even a partial refund. As we were leaving with no place to stay she started smirking. We had to sleep at the Loves because everything else was booked. I'm am very disappointed, avoid this place at all cost.
ScoutWow!!! There is so much to say about this place. The best rv park I have ever been to. Scott the ower was magnificent. From the welcome basket that had eggs coffee and banana nut bread, to the clean restrooms and showers. WOW. I can't stress this enough. That this place is great. They have 2 little dog parks. A basketball court. Lots of toys for the kids and adults to play with. The onsite Laundry was amazing, and free to use. We will definitely make this a must stay in the future.

Blue Spruce is a cute RV park in southern Colorado that was a bang for buck it's clean and very well maintained.

We stay at EB every year. It is our favorite campground. There are lots of things to do and the sites are good sized with plenty of shade. The restraunt/bar has a great atmosphere!
ScoutThis place is the best, we had a blast and there are plenty of things to do for adults and children.
TravelerWent there for the great reviews and outstanding local nature attractions. Sadly, this RV resort was in the middle of some sort of family reunion across from our site: At least 40 or more folks hooting and hollering and playing loud music that could be heard across the valley, going on for hours without any type of drop-in from the resort management. Despite a previous reservation, I was stuck in a site with no shade from the sun or the reunion’s party. It didn’t help that the site’s pump water was mostly dirt and plugged my filter…
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 .
ScoutI can't say enough good things about this place. The mayor of Stoner, Colorado, Scott is a great host and very generous. The place is very well maintained and clean and looked after. They have RV spots right on the river, Stoner Creek! My Jeep camper was quite happy over in the tent sites. With free shore power, even at the tent sites. Free barbecue with utensils and propane, fire pits with free wood! Yes, free wood! A different welcome gift each time but usually with a dozen farm Fresh eggs here from his chickens. Plus coffee, usually banana bread , tin foil even lighter fluid to light the free wood for your campfire! At 30 bucks a night for a tent site with shore power and all of that it just almost seems too cheap.
With lots of really gorgeous, mature Noble fur trees, this spot is not only gorgeous but really well located above Dolores but below Rico to access so much of the natural Colorado landscape. I love it here! Tell your friends!
TravelerCan't get a better location if you're visiting Mesa Verde. It's a stones throw from the park entrance. The campground is very professionally run& kept very clean. We didn't get a chance to use the amenities but they looked great and I was kind of regretting I didn't book an extra day just to relax and hang out by the pool

Cold night in CO! This was a weird spot. We booked online and when we showed up no owners or camp host on site. There were 5-10 campers on the ground. It's cold in CO and right before Thanksgiving, so probably why.
We went to office, it was locked. It saw to call a number for new arrivals. We did, no answer, left a message and no call back. We booked site #7 and the electric didn't work, so we moved to site #6. Couldn't access laundry or bathrooms.
They had a cute dog park. Trash can was full as if no one was doing maintenance, but at same time it looked like a open campground. Nice Mtn view! We are easy going and would book again, but if website lets you book online, it would be nice to have someone there to greet you.
Level spot, no wifi but had cell reception and Starlink. Great Mexican restaurants to eat at!!!
ScoutSpent an amazing week here in middle October. Beautiful centrally located place. Thanks for the great stay
ScoutCalled Scott (the manager/owner) for a buddy of mine who is on the road for business but he is camping along the way. We knew he wouldn’t get to Durango before dark so my bud asked if I could get him into a campsite somewhere cause I have the Dyrt app. I saw this camp/RV spot and it looked cute, clean, and had good reviews. I took a chance and called, no one answered but the message provided an alternative number to call. I left a message and then called the alternate number. Still no answer so I left a message. Scott called back in a matter of minutes and said the office would be closed by the time my friend arrived but that he would look out for him. When my friend arrived Scott had set up a fire ring with wood for him, got it lit while my friend set up camp, Scott grabbed a bag of utensils and other necessities he thought might be needed as well. He also included a welcome bag with cookies, chips and other goodies. OI camp all the time and have never had this experience. It is so wonderful to know folks like this exist especially during the trying times our world is going through. If you ever read this Scott, thank you so much and I can’t wait to visit Durango bcs I will be camping at your spot for sure!
