Our family of 6 stayed at Old Lime creek in July 2024, based on 5 star reviews on Campendium. We almost went to the wrong spot though, as there is another Lime Creek dispersed area in Creede, several miles down the highway.

Beautiful views, tons of wildflowers, weather was amazing, kind people. Turnoff was 2.5 miles past Purgatory ski resort, right after the hairpin turn. Go through the dirt parking lot, and the meadow opens up on your right. The road continues, with a few spots on the way up and a lovely pond several miles up. The road gets rougher past the cabins, and 4x4 and high clearance would help you out.

Some highway noise, but didn’t bother us. So convenient to Durango, Silverton, and an hour to Ouray.
