What campers say

Junction Creek Campground offers large, secluded sites that work well for groups, tents and pop-ups, with fire rings, picnic tables and some sites providing water pumps and electrical hookups. Vault/pit toilets and restroom facilities are consistently noted as very clean, though showers and water pressure can be limited, so bring drinking water and be prepared for slow spigots. Helpful camp hosts, dark night skies and nearby hiking/Colorado Trail access make it a peaceful base a short drive from Durango; cell service is spotty and wildlife is common, so plan accordingly and observe quiet hours.
