Junction West Vallecito Resort

"We had a small cabin, #9, and it was great for 2 people. Charming and peaceful getaway location."

"Excellent staff and the location is solid. Kind people with the perfect distance from the busy pace of life. If wifi is important to you it’s unreliable. Expect no cell signal. Activities could use some updating but overall the grounds are well kept and the pines are trimmed and plenty of clearance. We keep coming back here it’s a solid stop and the drive out there is excellent. Big RVs fit too so take your 40’+ out that way."

"Spent 5 nights on a family vacation at this "resort". We stayed in cabin 10 better known as the "lodge". This place does not offer the amenities of a resort at all. We traveled from Texas and if you are even a little familiar with Texas you know we experience triple digit temperatures in the summer. Air conditioning is an absolute necessity. It is just something we're use too. When I booked this place I assumed I was going to get some air conditioning in this lodge. When we arrived and the lodge felt warm inside we began adjusting the thermostat. Nothing ever kicked on and then we realized the place didn't even have air vents. I brought this to the attention of a staff member to find out there is no air conditioning and she could provide us with 2 extra fans. I was by far shocked to hear this. My family and I discussed leaving if they would consider refunding us our money for the rest of the week. I was told my the manager Erin that they could not offer any refund or discount for the inconvenience. She stated if I had read their amenities it doesn't list air conditioning as something they have. I have never thought to check amenities for air conditioning. It is not something you normally have to confirm is available. I told her this is something that should be said is not available on the website especially for those that come from other states and have no idea. They should understand that most their visitors will be people/families from other states. How should I have known air conditioning isn't a thing in Colorado at most places. The wifi they do say is available on their list of amenities is not available. It never worked and then it wanted a payment when you got on. So confusing. You're forced to use the wifi everybody else uses around the resort when it specifically says the "lodge" has it's own wifi. I was told, "well this is the mountains, you just never know, we loose connection all the time. Makes no sense. Also, they didn't even provide any extras. When I went to the office to ask for trash bags I was told, "people usually bring their own". They are also a 35 minute drive to Durango. I don't consider that close. They are also not a skip and a hop to the lake like they make it seem. The icing on the cake is the RV waste dump is literally right in front of the lodge. I had the joy of watching people empty there waste right outside the front door. Definitely not a selling point. We managed to survive their current heat wave with no air conditioning but I wouldn't recommend this place to anyone. For the price and what I paid I could have stayed in a much nicer, up to date, full amenities Airbnb. Please look past this place. Consider yourself warned."

"The staff was very friendly and efficient from the reservation to our departure. The resort is very clean and quiet. They had a fire roasted pizza night on Friday a huge pizza made to order for $17. On Saturday they had live music in the main hall and church on Sunday. Park in the middle for kids to play on, tether ball, horseshoes and corn hole. The sites are good size and pretty level. Well layed out would stay here again!"
