Found this location while searching campgrounds. Stayed on 6/7/2017 that evening and was a back-up location although there are some pull throughs.. It's primitive with potable water available and compost vault toilet (poor condition). No electricity, dump station, firewood, or showers available. Had to get firewood from Durango. Host wasn't around when I was there. Trash disposal available on the way out. Trails abound, especially to an abandoned rail bed of an old narrow railroad.
It was very quiet with a little road noise.... but when the night comes... it becomes very quiet you could here owls calling. Had a herd of Mule deer come through and the dog made sure they stayed away.... OK... growling made them laugh as she is a small dog.
Had a 19 foot RV trailer behind a jeep. Very nice locations through the campground. We were able to spend some time at Mesa Verde and downtown Durango.
For the previous poster, this place is only open from Mid-May till early November. This all depends of weather and other conditions.

We camped here on 7/15/2017 for 1 night in a 35ft RV. It is a very nice Forest Service CG that does take reservations though we camped on a Saturday night and had no trouble finding a nice spot with no reservations. If we were not on a schedule we would stay longer. We paid $9 with a GA Pass.
