    Ancient Cedars Mesa Verde RV Park

    Rustic resort on the doorstep of Mesa Verde National Park

    My family and I stayed here for 3 nights in late July in a 34-foot travel trailer. We made reservations over the phone and found the customer service to be exemplary (I called at the last minute to both cancel and then later to re-instate my reservation when we had car trouble on the way). When we arrived the check-in process was straight forward and easy. The roads are gravel but well-graded and the majority of the sites are pull-thru. We had no trouble getting into ours, however, we found rather quickly that sites are extremely close together. Our back-side neighbors had to move their picnic table back in order to accommodate our driver-side slide (the distance between our extended slide and their trailer is about 8 feet. But... we all made it work. There is a 10 pm lights-out policy to cut down on light pollution and see the stars. And the people who camped next to us were considerate. 

    The campground has lots of amenities. A log cabin (rec center) with pool, video games, TV with DVD library, books, and board games. Laundry with decent pricing. Mini-golf ($3 per person). A nice pool and hot tub. A dog park with agility obstacles. Nice playground. Wifi signal is strong with decent bandwidth (they discourage streaming). Next door is a horseriding stables ($40 an hour, $25 for a half hour); the horses come up to the fence and love to be petted. The store in the office is small but has the basic amenities. Groceries can be purchased in Cortez, a 15-minute drive away. And, of course, Mesa Verde National Park is right across the road, less than 5 minutes to the visitor center.  The only downside (besides the tightness of the spaces) is that dumpster was very full and near to overflowing. 

    Overall we enjoyed our stay here, and thought the location to the park and local area was perfect. Would recommend and definitely stay here again.

    THIS IS THE PLACE!

    DEFINITELY recommend this resort! 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. There's a pool, and hot tub, mini golf, a little store, and PONIES next door! Definitely recommend trail rides.

    Mesa Verde RV Resort

    Sweet, Well Maintained, Campground!

    This is a beautiful, maintained campground right outside of Mesa Verde National Park. The staff are very welcoming and friendly. The gentleman even escorted us to our site. The sites are nicely spaced out on gravel, and are clean and well kept. Many places to sit and relax such as an outdoor patio, two hot tubs, a pool, ponds, etc. We had full hook up which was exactly what we wanted. The campground did fill up by evening. There is a bit of a sewer smell when the wind blows due to their sewer treatment site being in close proximity to the campground, however, it was manageable and didn’t notice the smell much. The wifi became slower as more people were on it in the evening. There is not much cell service for AT&T. This is a sweet little campground definitely worth checking out.

    As close as you can get outside the park.

    This campground is full service- tent and rv sites, motel, cabins, restaurant, store, and sand board rentals all with views of Great Sand Dunes National Park. If you are in a tent or small rig, head towards the top and back rows for great views with hammock trees. Or, stay low and just have great views. This is the only place close to rent sand sleds, and it is just outside the park. The campground restrooms are in a retrofitted cargo container, which is pretty cool even if it only has running cold water. The super clean shower house is closer to the motel. Not too far away are some great hikes including Zapata Falls.

    Nice spot. Very quiet.

    New owners have really polished the place up. They also have "cabin" rooms in a refurbished vintage motel on site. It was a nice change to park the camper snd indulge in a room with queen beds and an unlimited hot showet after 11 days camping. Reasonable rates and free continental breakfast.

    Clean, but it's on the industrial edge of Cortez. Thankfully it had a nice view of the Mesa Verde mountain range from many sites. We happened to be in a site directly behind one of the cute cabins that have a premium view. Gravel drive and pads. Utilities back to back. Laundry and restroom were clean.

    The bathrooms are very nice and have two shower houses located on the campground. The breakfast is awesome and it's fun to relax in the pool they have on site. The cabins are very nice as well as the tent sites. All of the staff are great and very helpful when asking about what to do in Durango. We did the drive to Silverton that is absolutely beautiful and checked out Mesa Verde.

    Not recommended!

    Stayed at site 78. Probably the only campground that we stayed at during 2 week trip to CO / west that we did NOT like. Not a flat thing in the entire campground, and no privacy! Very nice owners, but didn’t make up for the shortcomings. Probably a much nicer place to stay if you’re using one of their many cabins, and that’s clearly what this campground is oriented for. 2 stars, however, for tent camping experience.

    Great for kids

    Stayed in a "cabin," in the summer, basically a bunk house with two bunk beds and a little foyer.  Still, a nice break from the tent for the kids and I.  On the highway but not much noise, and a very nice pool.  Sites are small, but the amenities make up for it.

    Best part about it was convenience.  Easy to downtown Durango, Mesa Verde and easy to find driving back late from a day exploring.

    Other reviews were not kidding about it being so peaceful here having plenty of amenities AND a cool vibe. They even have a fun house with ping pong, fooseball and other games. We woke up to a rainbow with a beautiful view of the Ute Mountains in the distance. Hosts are friendly and helpful, and location is just a few mile outside Cortez and has a couple great Mexican restaurants! This campsite even offers Teepees and cabins to stay in, a really unique opportunity for a nice experience.

    Ancient Cedars Mesa Verde RV Park

    Don't stay here

    My 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.

    Overall setup was nice!

    It had been a while since I put up a tent, but EB had a few level areas specific to tenting, although the provided bath house was not centrally located. There were 2 toilet stalls and 2 shower stalls - relative to the majority of campers and cabin-users. There is a pool! EB provides a great eating area and bar to replenish your “spirits”. A great place to camp for reunions or gatherings. Removed from town, but close enough to spend the day exploring the region. Plenty of trees to hang a hammock, too!

    Nice w/ lots of shade

    Great camp sites for pull thru, back in and tents. Several cabins, bathrooms & showers also available, but closed our week (scary virus). Nice, clean, non-heated pool was a plus. Friendly, helpful campsite hosts. Trash pickup 10:30-11:30AM every day. No bears our week. Campground goes dark by 9:00PM. Very friendly folks our week. Creek contained minimal water, but expect it is nice when it’s “running.” 5 min drive to Durango; lots of hikes, drives & activities in the vicinity. Consider driving (carefully) to Ouray, very beautiful views and overlooks. Will return.

    Large spaces

    This is an RV Park with many RV Spaces, tent sites, and some cabins for rent. The RV sites are easy to get into, relatively level, and have tables and grill/fire pits. There is gravel on the spaces- although they could add more gravel. Nice dog park divided into two areas so your dogs don’t have to co-mingle. There is a clean, reasonably priced laundry room and a swimming pool. The spaces are nice and wide and many have large trees for nice shade, but some don’t and have full sun. There are multiple tent sites, with tables and grills as well; along with a site for large tenting groups.

    Coyote Outfitters

    A gem!

    Coyote Outfitters is located between Mancos and Hesparus, and about a 35 minute drive to/from Durango. Owned and operated by Amy and Donnie Moffat, they offer 3 RV sites at their little campground, located up the road from their cabins location on County Rd 116. The sites are back in, level and have full hook ups, plus a beautiful mountain view in one direction and open fields as far as one can see in the other direction. The peace and quiet here is truly awesome, as are the night skies. 

    A short walk down the quiet country road and there is a first class bathhouse that looks more like a rustic spa! No detail has been forgotten. 

    Amy and Donnie are wonderful hosts and it's clear they take pride in their business. I would stay here again in a heartbeat.

    Fun place to stay

    Pros

    The campground was relatively small so nothing was too far away. Laundry facilities were nice. Lots of showers that were private stalls. Lots of activities to do. The staff was very friendly and professional. Very clean- they even scrub the heck out of the bbq grills even when they have to stand in the heat of the day doing it. Delicious pizza.

    Cons

    It was close to a highway- BUT it was pretty well set back so it didn't feel unsafe by any means, but there was a lot of traffic noise. Sites are packed pretty tightly and many of the tent sites are not private in the least. We got lucky and got one set back with the cabins. The pool is pretty small, but it was clean and the kids had a great time.

    Cortez, Mesa Verde KOA

    This KOA is the Best in the West

    The Cortex/Mesa Verde KOA in Cortez, Colorado, was the best campground we stayed at (out of 10) on our #9parks12days road trip in June 2016. Not only was the site itself updated, it was the FIRST KOA we stayed at that had usable Wi-Fi - as in video streaming capabilities! When traveling with kids, this is such a HUGE amenity.

    This campground has an updated playground, heated (seasonal) swimming pool, a 1-mile walking trail, dog park, and even tepees in addition to cabins for overnight camping. Not to mention, the campground is located a mere 15 minutes from the entrance to Mesa Verde National Park. Other highlights: newer laundry facilities, of which we made use, and awesome mountain and mesa views right from your site.

    Don't expect a ton of privacy - sites are very close together. The family next to ours had an outdoor living room set up that pretty much took the entire space between our RVs. However, the grounds were well-kept, and there was plenty of space to remove yourself from other people throughout the facility.

    Depends on what you value

    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.

    Bright Star Campground

    Exceeded our expectations

    This campground had so much to offer! Our original plan of camping in BLM land was foiled by the "elk and deer winter ranging" blocking off the majority of the dispersed camping areas around Mesa Verde National Park, but we were luckily able to land a spot at this amazing place! It may be lacking some cover, but it makes up for it in the large covered patio area that is packed with entertainment! They have foosball table, cornhole boards and ping pong to name a few! The kitchen was super handy so we didn't have to tap into our water tank for dishes. Owners were working hard on site to get the teepees up for the season and they were so friendly! A peaceful area that is just a quick drive from the park! All the main amenities were connected by concrete pathways that are lit by solar lights at night and you can tell they are continuously working and adding things to better the experience for future campers. They also have bunk cabins, teepees, sites with cover and I think we saw a yurt coming in. All in all, it was probably our favorite last minute campsite booking!

    Cortez RV Resort by Rjourney

    Great except for the confusing “dynamic pricing system” they use

    Cortez RV Park is a very nice park, with clean bathrooms & showers; community room with TV, microwave, & pool table; laundry room; good Internet service; outdoor pool (not open in late May); dog park; graveled sites with hookups & some shade trees; great views of the surrounding mountains & mesas; just 8 miles from Mesa Verde; located far enough from Hwy 160 to not hear much road noise, but close enough to drive or walk to shopping or restaurants; multi-level park with tent camping on lower grassy level next to small creek; & cabins & teepees for rent.

    We didn’t use all the amenities, but enjoyed the ones we did.

    Our only complaint was with the parent company, Rjourney. We called to get rates while 10 minutes east of town on a Friday afternoon, & was quoted ~$30 per night. The invoice showed a $15 lock-in fee to hold a specific site, increasing the rate to $45 + tax. When I called Rjourney, they admitted that was an error & credited my card for the $15.

    We decided to stay an additional night & head into Mesa Verde for the day. The on-site office told us the rate would be $46 for Saturday night. When I questioned the increase, he said they use “dynamic pricing”, which can change anytime. I called Rjourney later that afternoon, & they confirmed that their pricing can change, despite the fact that the park was far from being full, so we didn’t understand the increase.

    Homestead RV Park

    Good overnight spot

    Full hook ups, pull through spots. Didn’t use the facilities, but they looked modern and clean. Basically a gravel parking lot. My only complaint is no grass, but they do have a fenced in area for dogs to play off leash and actually keep waste bags in stock. Overall a good place to overnight. Thank you!
