This RV park has a very nice setting ... off the main drag and on a nice creek. Very quiet and nice and dark for sleeping. Very clean and lots of trees and level spots. The people were very friendly and accommodating and I'd definitely stay here again. We didn't look at the bathrooms or showers so can't comment on... More

We stayed in one of their cabins by the creek in May 2012. It was the perfect time of year to leave your window open to fall asleep to the flowing creek. The staff was very friendly and the campground is well maintained. The bathrooms/shower house were very clean. It's location is just far enough outside of Durango to make... More

I have to say, I have found my new site in Durango. This campground is fantastic. We stayed in site number... More

Lightner Creek Campground is just outside of Durango. It is situated against the San Juan mountains. It is a very beautiful and natural surrounding among trees with the creek running through the middle of the campground. sites are unique, unlike the parking lot type of campgrounds that have become so popular. The people are very friendly, the facilities are extremely... More
