ScoutQuiet, on the Florida River, at the end of the road
I’ve camped here several times, spring, summer & fall. Never a bad time. Great for rope cliff climbing and extensive hiking.
TravelerSerene and beautiful
The campground was relatively quiet and offered lots of shade from the hot summer sun.

Transfer park campground is a nice place to camp just outside Durango. We mostly planned to spend the days down in Durango and use the camp spot for the evening. It is a bit of a trek from town, maybe 45-50min, but the drive is beautiful. The campground itself is clean and heavily forested. A small meadow separates the two loops, with a path down the middle to the beautiful river area you see in the pictures (3ish min walk from you site). We stayed in the lower loop on the “inside” part of the loop. The outside spots are closer to the river, but you have to scramble down the side of the mini cliff to get to the water, walking through the meadow let’s you access the river at “ground level”, so to speak.
