    We came about staying at the United Campgrounds by chance obtaining their information through Google. We were in Albuquerque NM when we called and knew our arrival would be cutting it close before the office closed at 8. True to her word, she was leaving our info in the door when we rolled in at 7:58. It is obvious a lot of pride is taken with the maintenance & upkeep of these facilities and as a traveler, I appreciate the conscientious efforts. The only hiccup we had was not being able to log onto the wifi using the code we were given. Otherwise, it was a very pleasant stay and I would recommend without hesitation.

    We chose to stay at the United Campgrounds because it was so close to Durango and the train station. The park is just out of town off the 505 on Animas View. Registration is a big building with parking on the side. The trolley stop is just at the top of their driveway and across the street. Registration is easy and the staff is great. The office also serves as a store with Leaning Post Cards, decorative items, a few grocery items, toys, snacks, ice cream and supplies for RVs. The sites are double for pull through. RVs are parked one in and one out so each one faces the opposite direction. You are very close to the RV that has its pedestal on the same side as yours. You have more room on the other side. On that side, there is a nice picnic table and have enough room to park your vehicle. There are large trees that offer shade and beauty. The best thing is the view behind the park. There is a large green valley with a trees and a river running through it. There is a mountains on the other side. It makes a serene and lovely view. There is a building close with laundry, restrooms and showers. There are 10 washers and dryers which would be plenty for the park. The entire building is clean and neat. The grounds are also quiet, clean and neat. I would definitely return and recommend United Campground. Service is great, location is good, a trolley stop gives you easy access to town and the park is a nice place to stay. Oh, and did I mention the view?

    We arrived on Saturday afternoon around two. They told us there was availability and was sent to spot in corner. We thought great some quiet , we set up and left to go hike. One we returned we parked in the exact same spot. On Sunday we left to go hike again and came back at around 3, our kiddo wanted to swim so we went took her to pool. Which was great and clean. Bathrooms were also clean showers were old but served their purpose about 45 min later we were beta and chose to relax and our daughter sat at picnic table and read when we heard someone say are your folks around, I came out and said good day yes how can I help. He said can you park in gravel, which I thought, I am on gravel , my back tire was maybe touching a corner of the grass. I moved it but felt this was a bit of corner of grass which was not an issue the day prior or evening prior or that morning. I walked to the ge two man next to me who was Parker on the grass and asked if they had said anything to him he said no. Then I realized how these " folks work" racist little place. We had paid for two night and just chose to leave. Did not like how he looked at our biracial daughter( Jamaican) will never go back there . The person who helped in am was nice but this man talked down at us but not the two others next to us who were on grass. I took photos of their tires and mine. GPS took us here by accident so we decided to stay . We should have left as we checked in we were watched everywhere we went . Unpleasant experience for us and ruined my Father's Day

    Clean and well maintained. Just a warning though, the lower camp ground it basically a wind tunnel if there is any wind whatsoever.

    How close to town?

    It is on the North end of town. Durango is narrow and long. There is a trolley that runs to town every 20 minutes, which is the best way to go there as parking is really limited.

    We've been here twice--last year, also for Memorial Day weekend, and this year. Last year things…read morewere great. We missed the Duck Races, but enjoyed pool, mini-golf, and pickleball. We skipped the food, having brought our own "camping" fare to eat and the kids wouldn't let us miss roasting hot dogs. We got their propane fire pit--I believe it's $25 for the pit and a full tank of propane. Nothing horribly special about it, but we enjoyed sitting around it and cooking hotdogs and marshmallows. There's no wood fire allows for safety reasons, so this made a great 2nd place. The folks there were very nice. They check you in and lead you to your spot and help you get you larger campers in if you need the help. We didn't have to leave the vehicle. The campground was clean and they were on top of all issues right away. They seemed like a group of friends or family taking care of their own property. We had a great time. This year we returned and things seemed more streamlined. Check in was quicker, they checked on us to make sure we were satisfied, everyone was very friendly. The pool was open--while not an Olympic sized pool, there was plenty of room for about a dozen kids and adults to be playing games and splashing around while many more (including myself) sat around the side of the pool in provided lounge chairs. We were told they were bought by a new group, and this group made some positive changes. First they started carrying a new pizza (Hunt Brothers, I think?) and for 12 bucks you get a pizza with as many toppings as you want with no extra charge--only charge is extra cheese. They were made quickly and delivered to our camp site. They also have a breakfast area with standard breakfast fare, as well as a pie/icecream shop in the main office. They have tent camping, Pull-through, Cabins, and big rig RV parking. Anything you need is available on site. They have laundry and showers, water, propane, and of course all the hookups you need. The new business that owns them seems to want to keep what worked and improve what needed improvement. They actually asked us how things were, what we thought about the changes (they knew we were there the previous year) and asked for suggestions on improvements. This wasn't the kind of corporate buyout where they try to streamline and skimp on everything, maximizing profits while running the business into the ground. Either the new owners genuinely care, or they put people in charge that genuinely care, and give them the authority to fix things. The only employee whose name we remember was Deborah, and she was very friendly and really peppy. She also happened to be the female employee mentioned below. The best part was during the duck races (an event we're told they hold on holidays where you can "buy" a numbered rubber ducky to race down the creek with everyone else's--the money goes to local charities--they said this time was the local Humane Society) Deborah was dancing around, quacking and flapping her "wings" getting everyone else involved while cheering on their own ducks. The race may have only lasted a couple of minutes, but it was a blast. You did not have to buy in to watch--and the ducks go fast! We sent our daughter to buy a few and were told they were already sold out! Pickleball was hard to get ahold of this year--the campgrounds weren't full, but there were some larger families that were quicker than us. We were able to get pool easily. They also put on movies outdoors (though covered). While we were there, they were all kid-friendly movies. I only remember one night was Finding Nemo. We plan on checking out one of their large cabins next year with more family.

    Traveling full-time in a 42-foot coach we have stayed in over 400 RV Parks, we stayed here seven…read morenights. (1) Clean, quiet and well-maintained park with great amenities is what you will find here along with a very friendly staff. (2) We live in the age of WIFI technology and there is nothing to stop any RV Park across this country from investing in doing WIFI properly. For some users such as ourselves, WIFI is an important feature and was one of the reasons for our stay here. We were told both by email and phone that each site had a good wifi signal. The wifi in and around our site was just about non-existent. We were in direct sight of two wifi towers, but still couldn't get a decent connection, even at 5am. Other guests we spoke with also had non-existent wifi! We know enough not to count on a good signal over the weekends, but during the weekday there is no excuse. We even had the WIFI-Ranger on our roof with a direct-line-of-sight to their wifi source. (3) Level pads, big coaches need paved or thick gravel pads that are level. We give this park a 5-star rating for having level gravel sites. (4) Maneuverability, some parks have very narrow roads which make backing up and turning very difficult, we found this park to have plenty of room to maneuver. (5) Dust, some parks are so dusty that even after short stays your unit needs a bath, this place is very dusty compared to many other parks, no grass here. (6) Satellite, as you know satellite reception is very hard to receive when you have large trees. If you stay away from the sites with the tall trees to the south you will receive reception. (7) Phone Service, we have AT&T which worked great here. (8) Dog play and potty, plenty of room to walk your dog here, plus there are two fenced-in dog runs. The Bad.... We had a pull-thru site but could not attach our tow car until after we pulled out. Our site was very long but there was not enough room to pull out of our site without having to back up. Maneuverability with a smaller coach and tow car might be possible.
