We were lucky enough to get a riverside spot for our first 3 nights at JW Durango Riverside (site…read more#3). Absolutely gorgeous! We then moved over to the field side (site #88), which we honestly liked even more as it felt like we had our own little somewhat private piece of Colorado paradise as the back side of our spot opened into a large field. We rented a cabin for 3 nights for our boys to come visit us and it was very clean and comfortable for them (no bathrooms inside though). The restroom facility was always spotless and the front desk staff were always very helpful. HIGHLY recommend this campground!

The prices are crazy, over $1000 per week. Also, they claim…read morethey are a "Resort"! We have been there twice. The first time, the pool was out of order the entire time. This last time, the pool was out of order when we arrived. We were told they the pool would be back online in two days. After waiting a week, I asked for a partial refund since they advertised the pool. The following day they opened the pool. The water was so cloudy that you could not see the bottom of the pool in the 3 foot section, and the water temperature was ice cold. The heater was set to 74 degrees F, but it did not seem to be working. They told me I could go swimming in the Animas River! Many of the sites were far from level. Their free wifi was completely worthless. Their high speed wifi was better, but still lots of buffering. The staff seems unconcerned with customer complaints.

Tough one. We've been coming here for years (7 times now? 8?) and love the location. For the most…read morepart we love the service. We generally love the amenities (though we miss the lip balm that used to greet us). The WiFi is now flawless. We have only stayed in rooms 35 and 37 (better views out of 35 but we liked the quiet of the larger 37 this trip). Rooms have been mostly refurbished (our rooms fridge looked battered but worked great; yes, they have robes) and are generally very clean but on this trip we experienced an issue (discussed below). Not in love with the pricing, which has only gotten higher. Hey, I guess if you can get away with it, go for it. Not at all in love with the money-grab of the parking situation. When we started coming, it was $10/day. Now it's $35. Not in love with the dog-friendly nature of the place (I'm allergic). Supposedly (according to the website and front desk staff) the third floor is off-limits to pets, which should make it a place I can sleep without problems. Well, this time we found the carpet of our third floor suite of rooms was heavily coated with long, white dog hair. I took a Benadryl and mentioned it when we headed down to breakfast the next day and the (thoroughly wonderful) woman staffing the front desk was clearly alarmed and _immediately_ had Housekeeping go vacuum and clean the room; they did a good job which got most (not all) of the hair, so I didn't mention it again. (I do love the responsiveness of the staff, and generally the cleanliness of the room - it's just a problem when there are dogs shedding on carpet). The included breakfast buffet is not what it was: less selection with no more cold meats and cheeses, but still pastries, yogurt, a warm egg dish and warm meats, toasts and hard boiled eggs. Great service by staff in the breakfast room (which moonlights as Cosmopolitan restaurant). Good coffee. So. The unexpected and not entirely removed dog hair - not good. The service was great and generally really welcoming and friendly. Rooms are nice. The location is fantastic. Breakfast is nice, but no longer cartwheel-inspiring. Pricing is high - but look where you are. However, parking is - no other way to say it - a ripoff and kind of an insult. Overall, I guess it's a 4 out of 5 . . . but it's sure not the hip-hip-hooray five stars that I always gave it before I delete my last Yelp account.

My wife and I were in town for a few days of skiing and stayed at the Hotel Columbia. It was our…read morefirst time there. We chose it because it is right across the street from a lift and the gondola and has suites with large outdoor decks and hot tubs. Our experience could not have been better. Every single employee we interacted with, from the front desk to the restaurant to the cleaning and maintenance staff were friendly and professional. Our room (25 & 26) was large and exactly as advertised. They combined two rooms to make a really nice suite, with a fireplace in the living room. The deck was spacious and looked out over the area by the lift and gondola. The view was so-so as there are buildings on every side, but it worked well for us. We enjoyed the hot tub each evening. It was very clean and held a steady 103 while we were using it, despite the outside temperature being in the low teens. Their ski locker room is clean and well organized, with a separate entrance/exit that let's you avoid walking through the lobby in your gear. The complementary breakfast each morning was fairly basic, but was more than enough to get us going for the day. The waitstaff kept the coffee flowing, which we really appreciated. We had a small mechanical problem with our room when we arrived, and they handled it immediately. The room price is what you should expect for a large suite in a boutique hotel in a ski town that is literally steps from the lifts and gondola. Although pricey, I believe if offered great value for what we got from the experience. Highly recommend.

Long read but it might save you a headache, money and some precious sleep…read more If you choose to camp here, I'd HIGHLY recommend avoiding the small rig campsites. It took us 45 minutes to get our little 21' travel trailer into the camp spot due to the steep angle and lack of space in front of us. Our front stabilizers are up as high as can go in the front while one side of our back bumper is literally sitting on the ground. We backed our bumper of our camper right into the edge of this mountain while gassing it in 4wd to try and get into this spot. I am now concerned we have damage to the underneath or backside of our camper instead of enjoying the stay, but won't know until we leave. The spots are really close together and tight and there isn't any privacy. Our campsite being on a hill also means we have virtually no area to hang out outside unless we want to sit on the slope facing our truck and have no view of the mountains. This should absolutely not be a spot. It's clearly just about creating as many spots as possible here. I can't believe this spot is close to $100 a night after tax. The kicker is there are empty spots all over, and have been the entire stay- however we were told there were none available and we had to use this spot, their website also shows more availability for the days we are here. There are "no refunds after the initial swipe of the card" otherwise we would have found another campground right away. I fully understand why after staying at this campground, they'd probably lose a lot of money if they offered refunds. The other big issue is it is VERY LOUD and I've been woken up at 5:30am every day and have campers next to me coming back on side by side's, playing loud music and drinking outside until well after 10pm. There's tons of people and feels like a party campground. The "quiet hours" of 10-7 don't mean a thing. I didn't realize this is *THE* campground for off road vehicles because they aren't allowed in the town of Silverton. The highway is right next to the campground and the noise is constant. Because of this, we am cutting ou short and taking the loss of money. Driving around Silverton, I've seen some really beautiful campgrounds with nice, level spots, lots of room and better views for less money. One has an awesome view of the train coming in. I'd do more research if off-roading isn't why you're visiting before selecting this camp ground. Pros would be clean bathrooms, e-bike and other rentals available and close to town, but the town is tiny and every campground is close to town.

There was a master with a small on suite bathroom and another small room with a bathroom and apartment size washer/dryer. There was a bonus bunk room that would fit 2 singles well, but to be comfortable in the kitchen/dining living room, four people is best. The kitchen was well maintained, adequate dishes, glasses, ect. The location of the unit on the edge of main street was perfect for what we wanted, to be walking distance from everything. The only thing I might think was disappointing if I were a "hot tubber" was the location of the hot tub from the unit. In other condos I've been in, there was a giant hot tub in each unit. I would have used the hot tub, if we'd not had to walk of the building, in to another. Otherwise I'm hoping we can score a unit again next summer.
