Tucked along the Animas River at the northern end of the Hermosa Valley, Junction West Durango Riverside Resort is a riverside retreat just minutes from historic downtown Durango. Reserve a riverfront cabin or site and spend your days fishing, rafting, and exploring the San Juan Mountains — then gather around the fire as the river runs by.

You may choose to stay in one of our rustic cabins, vacation rentals, riverfront RV sites, spacious super-sites, or tent sites. With so much to enjoy, you’re sure to have a memorable stay with us at Durango Riverside. Keep the memories fresh by visiting our camp store for souvenirs to take the fun home! **A Riverbank with a Story** Our stretch of the Animas has been a Durango landmark for generations. Just upriver sits Bakers Bridge, where scenes from the classic *Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid* were filmed near here in 1969 — the same blue water and red cliffs you’ll see from your site. It’s a piece of Western film history you can wake up to. ### Resort Amenities Enjoy our amenities ![A minimalist orange line drawing of a lightbulb with a power plug incorporated into its design.
