We decided to rent an Rv due to Covid and get out for a road trip this summer (2020). You are able…read moreto add on certain packages like sheets, towels and dishes. We did get the towels, dishes and pots n pans package. Also the coffee pot and toaster. We arrived a few hours earlier but checked in to get rolling. We were given the tour of the motor home with all the instructions needed. As we checked in and they were going through the checklist, they discovered the battery for the rv had been shorted. They jumped in and got it fixed. We waited two hours for the fix. That should have been our first clue that it had not been detailed from the last time it was rented. So much for getting on the road early. They told us the gauge for the propane, would not register full but it was. They said the water was full, the gas tank was full and the septic had been pumped out. There was a big stain on the mattress but we brought a mattress topper and cover and we were very glad we did!' Our first stop, I could feel the dirt on the floor so I got down on my hands and knees and cleaned the floor. That made me concerned how well it had been cleaned so I took out my antibacterial wipes and wiped down EVERYTHING, steering wheel, door handles, cabinets, etc. I also noticed the gas was only 3/4 full, not a full tank as they had said. We pulled into our reserved spot for the night and it was time to cook dinner. Every pot, every pan, every utensil was dirty, greasy and crumbs and debri were in the drawers. So, I proceeded to clean all the dishes, pots and pans. My trip so far had been spent cleaning. Then the carbon monoxide detector went off. So we opened all the windows and could not understand why it would go off. I couldn't get the stove to light. Finally, I was able to use a lighter so I could cook. We had nice clean full size bathrooms where we stayed so we hadn't used the toilet in the rv yet. Next morning I discovered the toaster didn't work. Not a big deal but we had planned on not eating out. Toast would have been nice. We headed out before lunch and as we are driving down the road the carbon monoxide detector went off again!?! Then the shower started burping up gross water all over the place and they said to go get it pumped out. So we did and the septic was full too, which clearly had not been emptied from The last users-YUCK!! We had not showered or used the toilet yet at all!!! We went ahead and got the propane filled too. Third night of the trip the heater wouldn't work and we froze all night. Our option was to buy a space heater or find and rv repair place to fix it. Luckily, we were able to finally get it working. The carbon monoxide detector went off everyday which was uncomfortable to deal with. Kinda scary. We were charged for extra mileage- ok but no credit was given for the full tank of gas, the full tank of propane, the full septic system we had to pump, the broken toaster, the no working heater and the issue with the carbon monoxide detector. Everyday there was something and it became almost funny till we had about $500 extra we paid for "mileage". Left that motorhome more clean than I found it. For all the work, worries, and added expense for gas, and propane we did not see the value. If we will consider doing this type of trip again we would get a newer model, look at everything more closely and ask them to pump it out and fill it in front of us. I gave them two stars because they did reply to our texts and tried their best to resolve the issues over the phone promptly. Had they been unavailable I would have only given them one. Most of the issues could have been avoided by detailing the motorhome prior to renting it out. They were friendly and nice. It was easy to rent, and drop off.

They put us on the 1st floor, just down the hall from a side door which was convenient for walking the pups at night. The room itself was on the smaller side, it had two queen beds. It was clean and had plenty of towels. The front desk staff was welcoming and helpful. We all liked the breakfast, there was a variety of hot and cold items. There was plenty of parking in the lot. The drive to the hotel was tricky and required GPS. It is easy to get out of the lot and back to town, but more difficult to get there.

Everywhere is well graveled and level and I didn't even have to level the trailer! That's something I seldom experience anywhere even at RV parks unless they have concrete slabs which I don't like. This place is not an expensive but not too much more than other RV parks and this is an absolutely beautiful location, especially at this time of year. The facilities include very and I mean very clean bathrooms and showers and an inexpensive laundry along with inexpensive ice. No fire pits here but you can do rustic or tent camping or full hookups. I seldom pay but I was in the mountains for 3 days and my power ran out! That being said, if you need a good RV park with really good facilities and nice people, this is definitely a place to consider.

I stayed on the new RV park side of the property so I cannot comment on rooms. The park was clean,…read morethe restroom building was cleaned to a high standard every day. I did not use the Wi-Fi. The property is conveniently located across the street from the grocery, a few doors down from the hardware store, and a five minute walk to the center of town. The new RV park section is all gravel. Not my favorite, but in an arid climate, perfectly reasonable. A camping carpet helped to make the situation much better. There are two large fields on either side of the new section where you can exercise your pets. You're also close to the river if you want to go wading, or take your dog for a swim. The Durango train runs by the campground, and reverses in the siding next-door. Never got tired of seeing the trains. If you are there for the Fourth of July, the Silverton fireworks are in your living room! I had no issues while I was staying here. The only suggestions I would have would be to offer online booking rather than having to connect via a phone call. While personal interaction is great, when you are on the road and need to know that you have a place to go to, Online booking would be much easier. The other suggestion would be to offer discounts for long-term stays. Their prices are fair, but on the high end and a discount for staying a week or month or longer would be A reasonable thing to do.

There's a restaurant and snack shop snd stores! great fun now the cons ...the spaces are very tight they have people jammed in there together some have fire pits, some do not, some have tables, some do not you don't know what you're going to get. There is no pond for a dog to swim in despite the fact they have many many ponds.You have to take them outside the park to the river. Our dogs are water dogs so that was really tough I think they should dedicate at least one pond for dogs. The other negative is there's absolutely no cell phone service or Internet at any of the camp sites. Yes I know we're supposed to relax when camping however I have a family crisis going on and I need to stay in touch with the world. You have to walk to the main building to get Internet and there is no cell phone. I have Verizon. That's a big downer I would fix that if I owned the place.
