This rv is a lovely oasis for humans and dogs. Scott the host’s mission is to make sure everyone has a great stay.
$42 - $54 / night
We camped here in the middle of may in a motorhome.
From out east, rented an RV for a month, and have landed at The Views. This place is worth every star. It’s quiet.
After a couple days of Colorado BLM pit toilets, I felt like I was glamping.
$43 / night
It's the perfect place to pull your RV, especially if teetering it along the edge of a really gnarly cliff isn't your cup of tea.
They have full hookups, a country store, a short hiking trail, games center, and a group pavilion.
$50 - $99 / night
They have a large facility with RV sites, look liked some small cabins to rent, restaurant, laundry mat and probably some other things we didn
Gravel, level. Likely the cleanest bath house I've ever stayed in.
$28 - $50 / night
We always stop in whenever we are in Colorado.
GuideWe are traveling with a young, very timid dog so asked for a large space. She gave us an end space with no shade and no grass; however, we have a nice view of the trees along the Animas River and are a short distance from the river. Lots of long term RVs, but their spaces are well maintained. Good gravel throughout the RV Park, nice level spaces. They take cash or check only. No tables, fire rings, restrooms/showers, but full hookups. Easy access, and we had no issues with road noise.
LegendAncient Cedars RV park is a great place to stay when visiting Mesa Verde National Park. It's located directly across from the visitor center on the other side of the freeway. The RV park has a combination of full hook-ups to campsites.
The park has a playground with a miniature golf course. There's a recreation room with a pool table, TV, and games. It's a great place for the kids to hang out in.
The cell service is good
GuidePriest Gulch Campground is a privately owned campground/RV park. They have 98 RV sites with full hookups along with tent spaces and 8 cabins available for rent. They also offer free firewood, shower facilities, and laundry along with a camp store. The property is immaculately maintained and all the hosts are kind, warm, and helpful. The RV spaces are quite close together, but there are no generators and the camp strictly enforced quiet hours. We found it to be extremely calm and relaxing with our spot right on the Animas River.
GuideThis is both my first review, but also my first ever RV trip. This is a simple campground, no bathrooms or showers, but they do have full laundry facilities. Westerly is a small 24 spot full hook up RV park on the north end of Durango Colorado. Why did I give it 5 stars? The hosts are wonderful people who are friendly, welcoming and helpful. They maintain the property and it’s impeccable. Each site has a picnic table and fire pit, there is a dog run and across the street is the newly remodeled Durango Hot Springs. Worth a night or a full week visit.
GuideWould stat inside the national park if available- this was a great RV resort with a playground, pool, pond, dog walk area.
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.
ScoutCozy, clean gorgeous! They make you feel like family. Staff is friendly and fun loving! Not your ordinary camp ground, very much a resort!! Stoner RV Resort makes you feel as if you don’t have a care in the world!
GuideThis RV resort is fine. The spots are wildly close together and small, but the bathroom/shower and laundry is very nice. We are here in late October and it is very quiet. Try to ask for a spot on the outer edge, much nicer.
LegendWe stayed here using Passport America discount on our way to Albuquerque.
The park is a very basic RV park in the town of Cortez. There is quite a bit of road noise as to be expected in a town. It seemed a bit rundown but not awful. There were some long time residents living there.
The guy (owner? manager?) who came out to meet us when we pulled in was very nice and gave us a lot of tips on things to do in the area. It is only 8 miles to Mesa Verde National Park so a great place to stay if you want to check that out. He gave us a list of other things in the area as well. Very knowledgable and friendly.
There was one washer and dryer for a laundry room that shuts down at night. There are dumpsters for garbage but no recycling. The sites are full hook ups with pull through and back in available and they can accommodate big rigs. Each site had a picnic table as well. Overall a convenient place to stay if you want to check out Mesa Verde or are just traveling through.
Good cell reception ATT and Verizon and the park offers Wifi.
