Lodging includes basic Cabins to the all-out comfort of Deluxe Cabins. Several outfitters guide kayak/whitewater raft outings on the Animas River. Make Durango KOA your base camp for Mesa Verde National Park, only an hour's drive away. Pool: May 27 - September 15. Max pull thru: 100 feet. Your hosts: Jay & Carol Coates.

This campsite was nice, and everyone was really nice. They always had something planned for the kids at the end of the day, when everyone came back from the daily fun. Also really close to town. Interned worked good. The only down side was the TV cable you had to install yourself.. If you are into watching tv while you camp.
I don't often camp in RV parks. This KOA was a pleasant surprise.
Many of the sites have trees around them. The grounds are well manicured with lots of flowers. There is even a herb garden open for campers to use.
There are two dog runs for different size dogs. They even allow dogs in the ditch/stream.
One surprise was that they cook pizzas and deliver them to your site. No doubt a bonus for families.
The one downside is the noise from the highway.
That said, the hosts are really nice, and willing to deliver propane tanks back to your site.

We needed a night in Durango as we were passing through...got their last site that would fit us. Only downside was we were right behind the store/bathroom/shower, so we had a lot of people walking through our site at all hours vs a few steps either direction that would have been more courteous. Beggers can't be choosers I guess.
We had the pie/ice cream combo...yum. Breakfast was pancakes and waffles for a fee...wasn't cheaper than going to a McD's, but more convenient. There was a dog run, a 'gold mine' think for the kids, the pool was heavily used but not out of control. Lot's of tents which surprised me...I'm not a KOA frequenter but expected RV's. I'm in a tear drop.
Showers were good...a little outdated by the standards I'm seeing at other RV parks. More showers than bathroom stalls, so there was a morning wait to do your business.
All in all a nice place, nice people. Caters to families.

Friendly, happy hosts who aren’t faking their way through it extended us a 10% discount since we were technically evacuees of the 416 wildfire north of Durango. There are big rig spots that resemble the normal pack ‘em in style of most RV parks, but most of the sites are relatively spacious and have a few ash junipers separating one another. The entire place has a summer camp vibe, with kids running loose, the pool splashing away, the smell of pizza wafting through what–if all of La Plata County didn’t smell like a campgire–would have been the faint smell of those beautiful big arm, climbable junebabies, and additional fun stuff like ice cream, recycling, compost bins, and sometimes a kids movie in their pavilion.
You can scoot to Durango, one of the best towns in these United States, in about ten minutes or less by car.
The only particular issue I found was, one night as I sat up late inhaling wildfire smoke and contemplating the percentile loss of solar power based on the continuous haze of smoke in the air, a park host came wandering through our site. Now, this is the kind of maze of a campground where you can and should expect kids and other campers in general to wander through your site, but it was midnight or so and he definitely startled me. We locked eyes and, without a word, just walked on by. I assume he was either sleep walking or a zombie.
My kids both voted we rate this 5 stars, something I’d rarely do for an RV Park, but I am really impressed with what they’ve got going on here so I went with it.

Stayed here during the fires (mid-June) and ended up leaving early for better air. Unless it is cold and you need warmth, I would not recommend the sites that are advertised with new landscaping, close to the highway. Its not the noise which you really couldn't hear, but rather there was no shade at these sites. Many of the other sites within the park have shade. It is a lovely park for being an RV park with a creek running thru which was great for the dog to cool off. The employees and hosts are nice and friendly. I didn't use the WiFi but the internet was slow but perhaps due to the conditions in Durango. The pool looked clean and fresh.

Super friendly staff and the back-in sites have better spacing than your average KOA with decent tree separation.
We were in the middle of the park and highway noise was audible all hours of the day even with our windows closed. It was tolerable, but a bummer.
The two fenced in dog areas were a decent size and clean.

The park has a lot of amenities (heated pool, dog parks, food, entertainment for kids, full hookups). They have a lot of people working here keeping the park maintained. Our check in was easy and they have someone to take you to your spot and back in. You can hear the highway noise all the time. The park is in a good location to get into Durango.
Our site was very small. We were unable to open our awning and did not have a fire ring. We were also across from the bathrooms with noise that goes with that. The managers next to us were very rude to us multiple times. We do not plan to return.

The staff was always friendly, the laundry was clean and machines efficient. Daughter played in the pool which was good. Check-in process was smooth, no noise from the road.

We enjoyed this site. The staff was super friendly and the location was close to downtown. Internet access was intermittent, but we weren’t camping for the internet. I see a lot about noise, but didn’t hear much. We would definitely return.
